Whether your loss has to do with a death, your health or an affair it is important to take time to process and to heal. I can help you do this in a supportive healthy way. Although it may seem impossible at the onset of loss to ever see any good out of it, I believe that given the right environment to fully express your hurt and grief you will have a chance to experience personal growth and new understandings. To stay stuck in anger, bitterness, depression or general malaise is not an appealing option. The objective is somehow to heal. We have no power to change what often happens in life but we have some power to design our reaction to it.

Grief and loss can be overwhelming, confusing and debilitating. There are often overpowering feelings of sadness,fear, anxiety, guilt and anger as well as thoughts and stories that we tell ourselves and others tell us. Sometimes there are other people to support and many responsibilities beyond the work of grieving that seem to preclude the possibility of meeting our own needs for personal support. I use reflection and empathy in a person centered approach to create a haven of safety that facilitates a sense of clarity and self connection in the journey of grief.

The grief and loss therapy I incorporate is anchored in the foundation of hope. Having personally experienced many loses, including the loss of my son, I know the depth of feelings one goes through and the importance of being able to come to terms with these intense emotions. When we are deeply impacted by death or other kinds of losses the tendency is to want to shut down our feelings or to make big circles around them, yet, as hard as it is to do, we must learn to open our hearts to our feelings in order to be able to come to terms with the loss and be able to move on. You can and will survive. Reaching out for support is one of the bravest and most important things you can do.

Candy Widdifield, B.A. (Psych.), M.Ed. (Counselling Psych.), RCC, CCC

  Registered Clinical Counsellor, Reiki Master Teacher

  Location of Therapist: Kelowna, BC V1X 3B1

Candy recognizes that the grief and loss process is unique for all individuals. She meets the clients where they are at and uses education about the grief and loss process to address some of the common myths and the well meaning but misplaced advice from others (like there is a specific period of time for grieving that applies to everyone and after that people should move on). Candy understands that sometimes people feel like they are going crazy, or like they are never going to be able to move on with their lives. Through a compassionate presence and offering people a context for their loss, Candy can assist people in addressing their grief and in finding some inner peace.

Losing a loved one (through death or relationship) or experiencing a trauma (car accident, house fire, physical/sexual/emotional abuse, etc.) can be tremendously painful. I use very effective techniques that help clients process the pain in order to resolve the issue, not simply manage the pain. By resolving the issue one can then feel better and function better. Benefits of resolving grief and loss are: reduction in Anger, Anxiety, sorrow, despair and fear; removal of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder symptoms; The ability to move past the traumatic incident. There is hope beyond grief!

Phil's compassionate and non-judgmental approach to grief and loss is to work with the client's narrative or situation to better understand the nature of their process. To appreciate and collaborate with the client in deciding on what, if any, obstacles or useful methods their may be in moving through their grieving process. Consideration is given to the various tasks/stages of grieving and whether the grieving process is frustrated by complications due to surrounding internal / external relationship or association with the loss. Phil works in concert with other treating professional such as doctors, psychiatrist, therapists, etc.

Through 'Seasons of Life' we all experience significant changes or loss in our lives - loss of health, a partner, a child, parent, work, trauma, etc. These losses create strong feelings of Grief that can go unnoticed, repressed or feel 'stuck' - not knowing what to do or how to talk about it. Over time, unexpressed feelings build until one-more-thing triggers a break-down or extreme reaction. I provide a comfortable & compassionate place to walk with clients through their Loss & Grief process ~ *Accept the reality of Loss, *Work through the pain of Grief, *Adjust to a new Environment, *Make new Memories, *Move forward embracing 'True-Life' ~ inner peace, new energy, focus & purpose.

Here's what clients have said: "When I came to see you, I felt that I was talking to a friend who understood and was in no way judgmental. ....I always felt better after leaving your office...You seemed to know when to talk and when to let me talk - which was most of the time." "Thank you Kathryn for creating a safe place where I could be free to be in the very depths of my grief and yet always knew I wasnt alone. ...Unlike other people who wanted me to stop crying and "just get over it" you seem to understand how grief overrides reason and problem solving. Most people want me to move on so they wont feel uncomfortable Im sad. You always made it about me, my process and my needs."
