How do you move on from suicide

I lost my friend and colleague to suicide. How do I move forward? Everywhere i turn is linked to her. At work, her name is there. At home, her pictures are around.
I tried so hard to save her. So hard. But the evil of this world hurt an already troubled soul and they sealed her fate. She couldn’t take any more.
I was with her, just hours before. I thought I’d kept her safe. I failed. My mind is filled with the images of her last moments and I want them filled with happy times instead. I keep re traumatising myself and I don’t know how to break the cycle.

Thank you. I was referred by my employer and the counsellor told me to eat a banana before bed to help me sleep!
I have referred myself to talking therapies but the wait is so long. Apparently if someone else refers who has a greater need then my wait will be longer. I understand the waiting list but to be told my grief isn’t as important as someone else’s is a slap in the face
