Grief and Loss Counselling in Stratford, ON.

Grief can be experienced through a variety of losses, including losing a loved one through death or divorce, an unexpected job loss, changes in living conditions, loss of independence due to injury or physical health. Loss can trigger a range of emotional reactions, unique to each individual. I will work with you through care and compassion to sort through those feelings and work together to understand the stages of grief and how to cope.

I, like many of us, am no stranger to the feelings of grief and loss and I am aware of how deeply unique and personal these experiences can be. The way that I imagine being part of your journey through these moments is by holding your hand and walking through this unknown path together, while discovering new aspects and meanings of the self along the way. I will check in with you to ensure that we are walking this path on a pace that is most suitable for you, for there is no need to rush during this time. Contact me to schedule a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit.

In my work helping clients process grief and loss, I strive to go at a pace that feels right for you. It can be hard to know how to get through a loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a meaningful opportunity. We can figure out what works best for you, whatever stage of grief you might be in. I welcome the opportunity to sit with you as you process this deeply unique experience. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit.

My approach to grief examines how we can come to a place of acceptance without the secondary grief we often experience when we feel forced to 'let go'. I'm interested in how we can honour the loss, allowing it to move forward with you, building a new relationship between the past and present. In my work with you we will explore your unique experience of grief.

Wouldn’t it feel reassuring to have someone listen with compassion? Whether you've lost someone physically or psychologically, grief hits you when you least expect it. We can try everything to avoid those emotions that follow, but grief is patient, grief does not discriminate and will wait until you're done. Greif will wait until you finally have a moment to yourself or when you're in the middle of a conversation. Let's move through the grief and be waiting for it instead.

As someone who has experienced loss and studied loss, I understand how unique and different everyone's experience with it is. Grief can be one of the most complex and complicated of human experiences and can occur with or without a tangible loss. Using a person centered and strengths based foundation, I will hold space with you and aid you in navigating these complex feelings at your own pace.
