Grief is a potential reaction to a loss of any kind whether through death, divorce, abandonment, separation, job loss, illness, disease diagnosis, kids leaving home, etc. Feelings of anger, resentment, shame, confusion, isolation or abandonment can result. Friends and family may not know what to say or how to provide support. A trained professional, who is profoundly sympathetic, respectful and empathetic, with the skills required to help one navigate through this difficult time, can be critical in helping one regain equilibrium.

Experiencing a loss goes beyond the loss of the family, friend, pet, or child to be. Not only have you lost the loved one physically; you lose what your life was with them; and what your future with them would have been. Overcoming such loss can feel overwhelming and impossible to heal. Counselling can make a significant difference in getting through this difficult period. Family members who may mean well may not understand the loss and inadvertently cause us pain: by expecting us to ‘get over it’, and by impatient and unsympathetic. Counselling offers a compassionate sounding board that is sympathetic and non-judgemental. We are able to heal at our own pace in a supportive environment.

A loved one dying affects everyone in a family and each member will work through their grief in their own way and timeframe. Empathizing and listening while offering comfort and support as individuals work through their depression, anger and guilt of the emotional roller coaster of grief in a safe environment for expression of self will enable one to move forward towards a healthier life.

Many life events can force us to be struggling with feelings of grief and loss not just the death of someone close to us. Life transitions like separations, job losses, health issues can be challenging and can take longer to adjust to without healthy support people who can help us to explore our thoughts and feelings. Rather than avoiding the pain attached to these difficult life transitions and losses, counselling can encourage us to move through the grief toward acceptance of the new reality.

Losing someone in your life can be a painful, frustrating, bewildering experience. Part of the healing process is to express your grief, sharing what your loss means.Through the process of therapy there are ways to make your grieving more complete and more positive. I offer a safe, confidential, nonjudgmental place to talk about your grief and to create your own unique roadmap through it. Some of the grief related issues I help people deal with include anger, hurt, feelings of abandonment, ambiguous feelings surrounding death of someone with whom the relationship was rocky, guilt, loneliness, and more.
