We will all experience grief and loss at various times in our lives and with varying effects. While it is normal to experience sadness after a loss, some people benefit from some extra support at this difficult time.

Fully exploring the loss that you have experienced and its impact on you is the first step in figuring out how to integrate the loss into your life as you move forward.

Grief is experienced in unique ways and are often influenced by family background, culture and personal experiences, values, and core beliefs. While grief is often thought of a response to death, grief may also be a reaction to significant life-altering events of loss, such as a divorced, loss of a job, loss of property or income, which can lead to social withdrawal, anger and confusion. Shauna can help you cope with your responses to loss and traumatic change.

Grief and loss can be described as a roller coaster ride. When we are giving we experience so many emotions such as sadness, depression, anger, confusion and more.

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.

One of the hardest experiences is the loss of someone or something significant that made us who we are. My approach focuses on exploring the various stages of grief, such as anger, sadness, and bargaining, to help you understand how these emotions manifest in your unique experience. Together, we will discover personalized ways to honor the memory of your loved one, allowing you to find a sense of closure and connection. I believe that while they may physically leave us, their presence continues within us in a different form. Reintegrating this loss into your sense of self is a key component of the healing process, enabling you to find new ways to cherish their memory and navigate your life.

Loss of a loved one is often one of those most challenging hard ships that we face. Although many try to prepare for loss, we are often faced with more than sadness and emptiness, but with feelings of guilt, anger, disappointment. Therapy can help an individual come to terms with their loss and learn to rebuild life. Although we will not ever forget those who have been close to us, the memories associated with their lives will feel less painful with time.

Many people have ideas about how grief should look or feel based on expectations from family, society, or the media. There are so many experiences and events that deserve be mourned, whether society recognizes them or not, and your feelings about the loss are valid. Your experience of grief is unique to you and there is no correct way to process your loss, which is why I work collaboratively with clients to explore meaning in the thoughts and feelings that emerge as you begin your healing journey.
