GRIEF COUNSELLING:
WHY CONSULT A GRIEF COUNSELLOR?
Grief counselling offers a safe, compassionate place to talk about your loss and find your way through grief at your own pace. I provide personalized one-to-one grief counselling for adults experiencing bereavement, the death of someone they love, and other significant losses and life changes. Sessions are available securely by Zoom.
Grief is one of the most profound and universal human experiences, yet no two people grieve in exactly the same way.
Every grief journey is deeply personal, shaped by our relationships, life experiences, culture, beliefs, and the circumstances surrounding the loss.
For some people, grief gradually softens over time. For others, it can become overwhelming, delayed, or feel “frozen.” Feelings that have been pushed aside through shock, trauma, caregiving responsibilities, work pressures, or simply the need to get through each day may resurface months or even years later.
Grieving people can also feel isolated or misunderstood, particularly when they hear comments such as, “You should be over it by now” or “It’s time to move on.”
A qualified grief counsellor understands that grief is not something to simply “get over.” Nor does healthy grieving mean forgetting the person who died or severing the emotional bond you shared.
Grief counselling provides a safe place to understand and express your grief, learn ways of coping with your loss, and gradually rebuild a life that can still contain meaning, connection, and hope.
A Grief Counsellor Can Help With Many Different Types of Loss, Including:
My Approach to Grief Counselling
I have many years of experience supporting adults, families, children, adolescents, caregivers, and seniors through grief and loss.
My approach is compassionate, personal, and non-judgmental. There is no timetable for grief and no expectation that you should simply “move on.” Our sessions provide time and space to talk openly, understand what you are experiencing, and explore ways of living with your loss while honouring its significance.
We work together at your pace, with the goal of finding greater balance, meaning, resilience, and hope.
My fees are reasonable and flexible, and I offer a sliding scale for students, seniors, and others experiencing financial limitations.
