Welcome to The Suicide Grief Healing Blog
If you’ve lost someone to suicide, you’re not alone – and you don’t have to navigate the pain in silence.
The Suicide Grief Healing Blog is a trauma-informed space dedicated to supporting survivors of suicide loss through the lens of nervous system healing, EMDR therapy, and somatic grief practices.
Whether you’re a parent raising children through grief, someone struggling with guilt, shame, or shock, or simply trying to survive the unbearable after suicide loss – this blog offers practical insights, EMDR-informed and Polyvagal theoretical reflections, and body-based tools to help you move through grief at your own pace.
Here, we explore:
-
How suicide grief affects the nervous system and brain.
-
Tools to regulate overwhelming emotions and trauma responses.
-
Parenting after suicide loss and supporting grieving children.
-
Reconnecting with meaning, safety, and a sense of self after loss.
Each post is grounded in compassion, psychological science, and the belief that healing is possible – even after the unthinkable.
These blogs are wrote with love and compassion by Dr Sue Egan, Suicide Loss Survivor, Single Parent of 4, Psychologist, EMDR Therapist and Suicide Grief Specialist.
Welcome and thank you for being here.
We see you…
We feel you…
You are not alone and
You are certainly not broken.
You have a nervous system that is designed to be adaptive and look after you – it is on your side. You just need practical tools to know how to calm it, grieve in peace and rebuild a life worth living again.
If we can do it you can too.
