I'll never forget the phone call. I was 23, driving home on a beautiful sunny day. I couldn't believe it when I heard my dad was gone. Grief floors you.

I provide compassionate, effective counselling for grief and loss based on what actually works in the real world. You're not alone - contact me today for a complimentary phone consultation. You can get through it. I can help.

During the grieving process, people often face various challenges, whether they're intense emotions, physical symptoms, or self-care/self-compassion. We provide a safe space for individuals to process their emotions, navigate through the stages of grief, and to help them find healthy coping mechanisms. Therapy can help individuals find support, gain insight, and develop resilience during these difficult times.

Processing loss is painful, confusing and often isolating. This is not something that is as simple as progressing through "stages" in order and typically involves emotions that we have been taught to avoid or suppress. Working with a therapist to unpack and go through grief and loss can offer some space and perspective that is not there when we talk with friends and family. Here you can have a non-judgmental space to take the time to work this out in the way that you need. This is not always easy, but we can navigate this together.

Dealing with the loss of a loved one can be one of the most difficult experiences we go through as human beings. You do not need to go through this alone. Reach out today to learn about how we can assist you in navigating the waters of this painful experience. At CBT Solutions you will be welcomed with respect, compassion, and understanding for what you are going through.

At some point in life, everyone will experience grief and loss. Grief is a normal response to a final disconnection from something or someone important to us. While grief is a common human experience, we will all experience loss in very different ways. It may occur following the loss of a pet, job, relationship, or loved one. Together, we will explore your grief to develop an understanding of what your loss means to you, and how it has impacted you. Together, we will explore how you can effectively experience and express your grief in a way that makes sense for you - there are no rules or timelines when it comes to grief.

As someone who has experienced loss and studied loss, I understand how unique and different everyone's experience with it is. Grief can be one of the most complex and complicated of human experiences and can occur with or without a tangible loss. Using a person centered and strengths based foundation, I will hold space with you and aid you in navigating these complex feelings at your own pace.

There is a natural process of grieving but sometimes, for various reasons we become 'stuck' and lost in the midst of the grief and losses we have experienced. Grief and loss occur not just when we have lost someone through death. There are so many losses: the loss of a marriage, the loss of a deep friendship, the loss of a job or even the loss of a long held dream or hope among so many others. It is possible to find hope and way to move forward in the midst of these losses. I will walk alongside you and help you to find new ways to move forward.
