Caregiver

LumiVie offers you individual meetings with a therapist specialized in bereavement before and after the death of your loved one.

Are you caring for someone with an advanced illness?

You’re looking after the person you’re caring for, but who’s looking after you?

Do you foresee the end of the life of the person you’re caring for, and will it profoundly change your life?

Here are the benefits of our support.
  • Active listening to your experiences
  • A space of attention for your uniqueness
  • Confidential discussion with a respectful therapist
  • Identification of emotional manifestations and their impact
  • The acquisition of skills and tools to support your loved one at the end of life
  • Preparing for the mourning and post-care period
  • Understanding and normalizing the grieving process

There are a variety of resources to help you through this difficult time.
