Grief and Loss Counselling in Kleinburg, ON.

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.

Moving forward in life without someone, who you thought would always be by your side, is devastating to say the least. And sometimes even harder to talk about. But you're not alone. We all need support, especially in times of high stress. Everyone reacts differently to grief and loss. My goal is to provide a safe online space for you to take charge of your healing, in however that might look for you.

Grief and loss can feel overwhelming. It is often not just the loss of what has happened, but also the loss of an envisioned future that needs to be grieved. I have worked with many clients grieving the loss of family members, relationships or their own physical abilities. My experience has made me adept at being able to help you by sitting with you in your grief and slowly helping you process it, so you can reintegrate your loss into your life in a more manageable way. Call today and book a free consultation.

Losing someone or something meaningful to you is devastating and painful. It may feel as if your world has been turned upside down. Together we can make sense of your experience. I invite you to the psychotherapy process where I offer healing approaches such as Brainspotting and IFS that are designed to change your neural pathways more efficiently and faster than regular talk therapy. Please feel free to book a free phone consultation to learn more.

Grief can feel overwhelming and confusing and it can be hard to know how to cope with these emotions and our sense of loss. In times like these it can be so helpful to have a person come alongside and walk this journey with you. In my work with individuals who have experienced grief, I support each person to discover their own unique path to healing from grief. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit.

Grief is the normal and natural reaction to significant emotional loss of any kind. It involves conflicting feelings caused by the end of, or change in, a familiar pattern of behaviour. It is the feeling of reaching out for someone who has always been there, they are no longer there. The grief journey is so individual and unique, so our work with people who need loss support is also specific to our clients' needs. We help people properly diagnose their difficulties and help them make sense of their conflicting emotions so that they can move through life with more peace and certainty.

Have you had a loss in your life? Are you feeling sad and angry at times, or just feeling that you need to talk further about this experience? Coming to counselling can help you work through your feelings. Often people feel that they are struggling with moving forward, and have difficulty picturing life with the loss they have experienced. I can help you work through the difficult and extreme emotions that often accompany grief. I am happy to support you.

When you lose someone or something precious to you, it’s natural to experience pain and grief. The process of grief and bereavement is normal, and most people go through it. But when grief takes over your life and makes you feel hopeless, worthless and helpless, then it becomes important to talk to a counsellor about telling the difference between normal grief and depression. The Family Enhancement Centre has several therapists who specialize in Grief and Bereavement counselling. Contact us today to know how we can help you.

Grief is an intensely personal experience, and it is never the same for any two people; even two people grieving the same loss. Some abide by the commonly known Stages of Grief, while those stages are recognizable, I believe the process is not linear, and any stage can be experienced at any time. Completely accepting people wherever they are in the grieving process prevents the expectation of a grieving in a certain order. My approach is to show compassion, emphasize self-care, and to provide a safe place and plenty of opportunity for self-expression. The creation of memory/legacy pieces in the form of songs, poems, and/or visual arts is an option when appropriate.

Grief can be overwhelming and deeply personal. I offer a compassionate space where you can explore your loss without pressure or judgment. Together, we’ll honour your unique experience, make space for your emotions, and support your healing process. Using gentle approaches, we’ll work at your pace to help you find meaning, connection, and a path forward—without rushing or forcing closure.

Coping with loss and adjusting to life without a loved one is overwhelming. It is unsettling and painful to watch the world keep turning when it feels like yours has stopped. Adequate emotional support is critical during these times. Therapy will not only provide appropriate coping skills but also offer a safe space to feel and process your loss. Reach out for a free consultation; we can talk and see if I am the right fit to walk with you through this adjustment.

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.

Whether through a death or a break up, loss and the grieving process is extremely difficult. I’m sure you’ve heard of the stages of grieving (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance). But, they don’t always go in that order, and they often jump around in your time line. Your grieving process has no time limits, and every journey is unique. I will walk with you through that, at your pace. No matter which stage of grieving you’re in, reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

My gentle, compassionate approach centres on offering practical and spiritual support to clients going through a grieving process, depending on the client’s particular needs and preferences. I find it is helpful and empowering for clients to understand the origins of the grief response so they’re better able to recognize and normalize it and support themselves as it arises, thus facilitating the healing process. In grief counselling, I draw from Nancy Reeves’ Energy Model as well as literature by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross.

Grief and loss are often associated with death. However, we experience grief and loss in our daily lives, whether we lose a job, a relationship, a friend, a house, etc. Learning to cope with the grief and loss in our lives is important to living a healthy life. Grief and loss are not linear processes. You may experience stage 5 one day and stage 2 the following – and that’s okay. At the Reflection Centre, our team of trained professionals are here to help support you through the stages of grief and assist you in coping with the losses in your life.

Have you found yourself in deep sadness from a recent loss or that may be many years old and perhaps you are only recently recognizing? People were designed to reach out to someone when they are grieving and have had a loss. Unfortunately in our modern world, we are expected to be brief about our losses, to shrug them off and move on. You don't have to suffer alone. I will support you to more fully allow yourself to experience this loss and sadness in safety so that you can truly process the pain. Please contact me for help.

In Grief & Loss Therapy with me, clients will experience a compassionate and understanding approach to navigating the difficult emotions and challenges that arise after the loss of a loved one or significant life change. I provide a safe space for clients to express their feelings, memories, and struggles without judgment. Through active listening and empathetic support, I help clients process their grief and develop coping strategies to find healing and resilience. By acknowledging and honoring their unique experiences of loss, clients can gradually find a sense of closure, meaning, and hope, allowing them to move forward in their lives while cherishing the memories of those they have lost.

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.

Life can be difficult. Working through grief and loss can also be very challenging. It is very commom to get “stuck” in this very painful process. Grief and loss can take on many forms whether it be through death, separation, divorce or other forms of loss. My approach is direct and “hands on”. Through a variety of exercises, reflections and strategies, I help the client through his/her own cycle of grief and loss. This process allows the client to explore “deep rooted” feelings. Through Cognitive Behavior Therapy exercises, the client regains some confidence and skill in being able to cope with their day to day life situations and ongoing life challenges.

I provide compassionate, supportive counseling for individuals navigating grief and loss, understanding that healing is a deeply personal and nonlinear process. Using evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, I help you process complex emotions like sadness, anger, guilt, and confusion. Together, we create a safe, nurturing space to honor your unique experience, explore your feelings without judgment, and develop coping strategies to adapt to life after loss. My goal is to support you with empathy and patience as you gradually rebuild resilience, find renewed hope, and reconnect with meaning and purpose.

Although therapy cannot help you replace who/what has been lost, it can help you come to accept the reality of the loss, to be able to look backwards and remember the good, and to be able to look forward with hope. Grief and loss therapy can be helpful for those who have lost a loved one, are going through a separation or divorce, lost a job, experienced an injury, received a medical diagnosis, or recently experienced a disappointment.

Grief and loss are significant life experiences that can be difficult to manage. I have heard from many that sometimes it seems like the extreme sadness will not leave them. I work with such clients to try and make space in their life to experience positive emotions along with the sadness. Grief is very individual and some clients desire help to "move past the grief", while others do not agree with this. I work to meet clients where they are, to optimize their day to day life experiences according to their own individual hopes. In addition, I help clients to find meaning in their experience of grief and loss, honour the life of their lost loved one, and manage the related difficult emotions.

Grief and loss touch every part of life, and I believe the healing process begins with having a safe, compassionate space to express and process the full range of emotions that come with loss. In grief therapy, I gently guide clients through understanding and honoring their unique experience, whether it involves the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or other life-altering changes. Together, we work to process painful emotions, explore meaning, and find ways to integrate the loss into life while nurturing resilience and hope. My approach blends evidence-based tools with deep empathy, helping clients move toward a renewed sense of connection, balance, and purpose at their own pa

At Hera Therapy, we approach grief and loss from a cognitive-behavioural therapy perspective. We will provide empathic support and reflection through this difficult time and help support you in getting back to baseline. We understand how difficult grief and loss can be, and want you to feel fully understood so you can heal.

Individuals often come to see me for therapy in my practice in the downtown area of Toronto in order to help them cope with grief, bereavement, and difficulty adjusting to painful loss. For some clients this includes the loss of a close family member, for others this includes the loss of an intimate relationship. In either case, the opportunity to discuss such losses and to understand their impact is an important part of the psychotherapy process.
