Grief and Loss Counselling in Don Mills, ON.

Grief and loss are deeply personal experiences, and everyone’s journey through them is unique. In our sessions, I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental space to explore your feelings and memories. Whether you're dealing with the loss of a loved one, a significant life change, or another form of loss, we'll work together at a pace that feels right for you. My approach is to support you in finding your own path to healing while validating your individual experiences and emotions.

Grief and loss can feel overwhelming, confusing, and deeply lonely. In my work, I offer a gentle, trauma-informed space where clients can move at their own pace. I do not rush the grieving process or try to “fix” the pain. Instead, I support clients in staying connected to their emotions, their bodies, and their personal meaning-making. Using a Gestalt and somatic approach, I help clients notice what is happening in the present moment, including emotions, sensations, and unfinished experiences. Through this process, clients often develop more self-compassion, emotional resilience, and a deeper capacity to integrate their loss into their ongoing life.

Are you experiencing a loss of sense of self, job loss, separation/divorce, unexpected transitions, death/loss of a loved one (pets included), challenging life transitions, retirement, or unexpected change. Grief comes in all forms. Together we can improve quality of life by learning how to cope with change and bring back joy & humour in difficult times.

Going through grief and loss, especially about a loved one, is an extremely difficult process - no one should go through it alone. As your therapist, I will show you compassion and walk along side with you in your time of grief. I can help you to move on with life at your pace and yet not having to forget about your loss. Healthy grieving is about the ability to to move on without forgeting the one whom you have lost.

Grief and loss can feel overwhelming, isolating, and unpredictable. At Willow Tree Wellness, I offer a compassionate and grounded space where clients can explore their emotions at their own pace.

Grief is a complicated experience that leaves many feeling alone even in a room full of people. I work through the various stages of grief with you to process your emotions. Grief is like a heavy backpack you can't put down. I will support you in managing the overwhelm and exhaustion you feel as you return to daily tasks. Let's connect to get you back to feeling like yourself.

The normal grieving process takes time. If you feel that you are having difficulty moving forward, or if you feel stuck, reach out. I can help you process your loss in a way that allows for you to grieve without greatly impacting your own health. Together we will process and find a safe space for your experience. Your loss will never be forgotten, but you can heal from the pain that stops you from living your life.

Over the course of our lives, we experience various losses and we grieve in many different ways. It can be difficult to know how to begin working through grief and you do not have to be alone in this process. I believe that grieving is a journey and I welcome the opportunity to support you in your path to healing. Within therapy, we can explore some of the emotions you are experiencing, unpack expectations about what grieving looks like, discuss possibilities for connection with what’s most important within your life, and consider possible ways to honour the loss(es) you have experienced. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Every person's grief and loss is unique. I will work with you to process that unique experience through discussion in sessions, and exercises that I will give you to process your thoughts and feelings. These exercises wll be specific to your loss. We will also embrace the healing power of time, and the notion of radical acceptance of what cannot be changed.

In grief therapy, I create a gentle, non-judgmental space where you can safely process loss. I listen deeply to your unique story, validating each emotion you feel. Together we explore ways to honor your loved one and navigate painful feelings. Using evidence-based coping strategies, we gradually build the resilience to move forward. Many clients find relief simply by being truly heard and understood during this caring collaboration. You’ll rediscover meaning and strength in life.

I support people in navigating their grief through a compassionate, empowering, and no-fault lens to allow them to move through their grief and back towards living a full life. In therapy, we process the pain associated with loss and grief in a kind and caring way, maintaining a strong sense of safety and self-care. With a background in suicide and crisis intervention, I have supported the parents, colleagues, and friends of folks who have died by suicide. I have also supported people through famliy death, breakups, loss of community following a move or significant life transition, and pet loss.

After a loss, you look at life through a different lens; what came before and what came after. The mourning process is not linear and it's not all logical; it's a deep felt sense of something missing. Being able to talk about and process our grief with an other in therapy helps us not feel so alone in it. We are offered a place to talk about the person (or pet) in a way that keeps their memory alive.

Grief after pregnancy or infant loss is often invisible to the outside world, but its impact runs deep. As someone who has both experienced and supported others through this kind of heartbreak, I offer a space where your loss is acknowledged and your pain doesn’t have to be hidden. Clients often share that they feel deeply understood and less alone in our sessions. Together, we’ll gently explore your grief, honour what’s been lost, and find ways to move forward that hold space for both healing and remembrance - on your terms, in your time.
