Grief and Loss Counselling in Brooks, AB.

no one ever asks for grief, and losses often happen unexpectedly. We all have supports in our lives: parents and children, friends, colleagues, grandparents and even aunts or uncles. Frequently grief seems to go longer than we expect, even to the point where we feel unsure about burdening our loved ones still. Sometimes we've lost hope or feel completely numb in it and don't know what to do, even wondering if things will ever change. Counsellors can help, becoming another support when we need one. We can let you know how you're doing on this uncomfortable road, listening and being with you.

Grief and bereavement are very normal responses to loss. However, the experience of grief and bereavement can be extremely difficult and feel paralyzing or overwhelming. Whether you have lost a loved one, a beloved pet, or have experienced a change in ability or circumstance, I can help you explore loss, learn tools to process grief, and build a plan for coping.

Losing someone or something that is close to us, can leave us feeling as though we have a gaping hole in our hearts. Grief and Loss counselling will help you feel less alone during this time of struggle and provide the support needed to find new ways to flourish. It's incredible what kind of growth and new meaning can come from allowing ourselves to be transformed for the better by our loss.

Do you find yourself thinking about all of the ways that you could have or should have prevented that painful thing from happening? Sentences starting with "If only I", "If only they", "I should have", I shouldn't have" are all thoughts brought on by grief and loss and the desperation to change painful experiences and life events that result in loss. Do you revisit painful losses or feel trapped by grief that has a grip on you that will not let go? At Mindful Centre we understand grief and loss and we can help you to process the pain while honoring the ones you love and finding comfort and healing.

The experience of grief as a result of loss or change in life can be disorienting and distressing. Clients may benefit from identifying their losses and the impact they have had on their life, processing the emotions and experiences they have had in relation to that loss or change, and reorienting to life in a new way can help them move towards a restored sense of well being.

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.
