Grief and Loss Counselling in Ponoka, AB.

We have all heard “there is no right or wrong way to grieve”. We believe that there are healthy ways to cope with the pain and that being given the opportunity to express your grief allows you to heal in ways that strengthen and enhance your life. In Counselling you will learn what to expect while you are grieving and be given an opportunity to express your thoughts and feelings. You will learn ways to develop a new and different relationship with the person you have lost and find a place for your past memories in your present life. Our goal for you is to accept your loss and create a new and meaningful mental picture of your life. Recovering from a loss does not mean that your life will return t....

Grief can change everything. It can leave you feeling lost, exhausted, angry, numb, or wondering how you're supposed to move forward when a part of your life has changed forever. You don't have to have the right words or know what you need before you reach out. Together, we can make sense of what you're carrying, find ways to cope with the moments that feel hardest, and help you move forward without feeling like you have to leave your memories, or the person you've lost, behind. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, supported, and able to find your footing again, one step at a time.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of grief & loss through the lens of innovation----instead of growing the same neural networks responsible for the pain in weekly therapy sessions, we reset the brain to move forward quicker and efficiently by working on the stuck limbic system so as to empower the person with more success and traction. For no one wants to stay in a grief mode for too long; but when you don’t include the brain in your work with someone, you risk describing the water to them while they drown and calling it success.

There is nothing so devastating as grief and loss; we are all impacted at times by unexpected or complicated grief. I offer supportive counselling to understand the impact of grief and to move towards healing from loss. Assisting people in moving through the grieving process at times feels painful but this journey leads to healing. My perspective is that we learn to let go of our emotional pain which allows us to carry the loving memories forward in our lives allowing us to heal from loss.

You are hurting right now, and I understand that. Grief has a way of making even ordinary days feel heavy, and you do not have to carry it alone. I have lived through grief and loss many times myself, and in more than three decades of practice I have sat with many people in exactly this kind of pain. Let us talk about what you are feeling. I have been a psychologist since 1986, and I can help. I am based in Calgary and see clients across Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick by secure video.

Grief and bereavement are very normal responses to loss. However, the experience of grief and bereavement can be extremely difficult and feel paralyzing or overwhelming. Whether you have lost a loved one, a beloved pet, or have experienced a change in ability or circumstance, I can help you explore loss, learn tools to process grief, and build a plan for coping.

Losing someone or something that is close to us, can leave us feeling as though we have a gaping hole in our hearts. Grief and Loss counselling will help you feel less alone during this time of struggle and provide the support needed to find new ways to flourish. It's incredible what kind of growth and new meaning can come from allowing ourselves to be transformed for the better by our loss.
