Grief and Loss Counselling in Nobleton, ON.

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.

Over the course of our lives, we experience various losses and we grieve in many different ways. It can be difficult to know how to begin working through grief and you do not have to be alone in this process. I believe that grieving is a journey and I welcome the opportunity to support you in your path to healing. Within therapy, we can explore some of the emotions you are experiencing, unpack expectations about what grieving looks like, discuss possibilities for connection with what’s most important within your life, and consider possible ways to honour the loss(es) you have experienced. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

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.

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.

Grief is the emotional suffering we feel when we lose something or someone important to us. This can include the loss of friend, partner, or family member, a change in life circumstances, death of a pet, getting fired, loss of health, safety, a dream... anything that we once had and now do not. The intensity and process can be unique for each person, but like all other emotions that impact the quality of our life, ignoring it or suppressing it does not work. Seeking support as we move through the various stages of grief is very helpful. Planning for our healing is crucial so that we do not become 'stuck' in the pain. A skilled therapist can assist us during this vulnerable time.

Grief occurs from all kinds of loss, including losing a family member, a friend, a career, or a relationship. Whatever the cause, your experience is unique and may be influenced by cultural background and history. It is rarely a smooth process. Many different emotions arise, sometimes at surprising moments. Through a compassionate and empathetic approach, I provide you with space to process your loss and move forward at your own pace. When grief continues for an extensive time, you may be experiencing complicated grief that interferes with daily functioning. Together, we walk through the important tasks of bereavement and mourning so you can find your footing again.

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.

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 and loss are parts of life, and yet, everyone grieves in their own way. Grief can be complicated by other conditions, most notably depression. The person’s level of dependency on the departed can also cause complications. The grieving process often involves many difficult and complicated emotions. Yet joy, contentment, and humour do not have to be a lost memory. I work with you to help you recover from grief and loss and find your way back to feeling joyful again.
