Grief and Loss Counselling in Harbour Main Chapel's Cove Lakeview, NL.

Grief is a normal & natural reaction to loss or change of any kind. As human beings we all will experience feelings of grief and loss in our life. Our relationship with the individual we have lost, the nature of events surrounding the loss and our own past experiences of grief and loss all contribute to our coping. All of us at Lighthouse Online Therapy know that grieving the loss of a loved one is difficult. Our grieving can be comparable to being on a rollarcoaster of emotions and/or lost in a sea of grief. Therapy can be helpful in allowing you to explore your feelings and memories in a nonjudgmental space to assist in finding ways to move forward with your grieving process.

Grief is a challenging and complicated emotion. There is no timeline for grieving. I take a narrative approach to help clients process their loss. Individuals need to tell their story and experience the emotions in order to incorporate the loss into their life histories. Often we avoid painful emotions, but these emotions are integral to our life experience. I provide a safe and supportive environment for clients to process these difficult emotions.

Our counsellors have extensive experience working with clients struggling with grief and loss. Drawing from several theoretical approaches, we work with you in a way that suits your own unique goals and needs. Our counsellors offer you professional support in a warm and safe environment and we offer evening and weekend appointment times to fit your schedule.
