Funerals
​ 

Laurissa has been working as a Funeral Celebrant for over 20 years, and in that time she has helped many families through the traumatic, stressful, yet also sacred time of saying farewell to a loved one.  

Laurissa draws on her extensive background in psychology when she is called upon to help families who have lost their loved one through traumatic circumstances or illness.  

She spends time with families in order to learn about their loved one and to support those who may need a little bit of extra nurturing and love. This process allows Laurissa to give your loved one a fitting, personalised send off.

“By the time I get to a funeral, I feel as though I know the person whose life we are there to celebrate. Every funeral is different, as no two people are the same. Those that are left behind need to say different things and do things in their own way in order to say goodbye. I can’t change the circumstances that have brought families to me, but I can promise them a listening ear, a wealth of experience and advice, a warm and unhurried approach, and a beautiful and authentic funeral.”​
Laurissa is happy to travel to conduct funerals, memorials or scattering of ashes ceremonies. She works in conjunction with William Barrett and Sons Funeral Directors. ​
