Grief & Loss
Compassionate Support Through Bereavement
Grief counselling offers gentle support through the profound experience of loss. Whether facing death of a loved one, relationship ending, or other significant losses, therapy provides space to honour your grief while finding ways to carry love forward.
Understanding Grief and Loss
Grief is love with nowhere to go—a natural and necessary response to loss that touches every aspect of our being: emotional, physical, spiritual, and social. There is no "right" way to grieve, and no timeline that applies to everyone's experience.
Loss comes in many forms: death of loved ones, relationship endings, health changes, job loss, or the end of life chapters. Each loss is unique, and even positive changes can involve grief for what we're leaving behind.
My approach to grief counselling honours the sacred nature of your loss while supporting you in finding meaning, continuing bonds with what you've lost, and gradually rebuilding a life that includes both your grief and your capacity for joy.
Supporting You Through All Types of Loss
Every loss matters and deserves compassionate support
Death & Bereavement
Support through the death of partners, family members, friends, or pets
Relationship Loss
Divorce, separation, friendship endings, or estrangement from family
Life Transitions
Loss of roles, identity, health, abilities, or major life changes
My Approach to Grief Counselling
I believe that grief is not a problem to be solved but a sacred process to be honoured. My role is to witness your pain with compassion, validate your experience, and support you in finding your own path through loss.
Rather than pushing you to "move on" or "get over" your loss, we work together to find ways to carry your love forward while rebuilding a meaningful life. Grief doesn't end, but it can transform.
I draw from both contemporary grief research and depth psychology, recognizing that loss often opens us to profound questions about meaning, purpose, and our connection to what matters most.
