Grief Therapists in L6J

I have had the privilege and honour of supporting individuals and families traversing palliative care, end-of-life care and as caregivers go through their grief journey for over 10 years. Additionally, I’ve supported clients through a wide range of challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I will meet you where you’re at.

Feeling alone, overwhelmed and lost while navigating grief, loss, infertility and birth trauma can increase the intensity of these experiences and emotions. You are not alone and I am here to support you. I have a deep understanding of the impact that these challenges, struggles, changes and transitions can have on a couple and on an individual’s mental health, sense of self, relationships and well-being. I work to empower my clients with skills and strategies to generate internal strength, calm, confidence and reduce stress, anxiety, fear and depression.

I am a Registered Social Worker with over 20 years experience providing clinical supports and interventions to adults of all ages. Offering a problem-solving approach; collaborating and walking beside you while navigating through real life challenges. I offer interventions/supports related to depression, anxiety, stress management, grief, bereavement, social isolation, family and workplace conflict, self-esteem and women’s issues.

Life experiences past and present can both contribute to underlying mental health issues that decrease the quality of your life. I am here to listen to your story and guide you through the painful parts, overcome challenges and help you reach your goals. I help people piece together their past and work towards a meaningful present. With over 15 years in the field, I bring both life and professional experience to my work. I support people with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression and other mood and emotional disorders. Over the years I have also supported professionals who experience burnout, various trauma and compassion fatigue.

Are you facing grief and loss due to the death of a loved one, a divorce, separation, empty nest, or another life-altering transition? Often, grievers worry they are handling it incorrectly or wonder if their experience is normal. Many of us are unprepared for the pain that grief brings and lack the knowledge needed to navigate its wild nature. Perhaps your transition is causing a ruptured sense of self, loneliness, and uncertainty. As Carl Jung said, 'Embrace your grief, for there your soul will grow.'

You are a mature and accomplished person, but you've had a lot to cope with lately, and you're seeking insight and resources. Your most immediate need may be to recover a daily life that works for you, or to cope with stress, or to grieve a loss. You may be at a crossroads with decisions to make, or in the midst of a transition. You may carry the responsibilities of a leadership position. As a Life and Leadership Coach, I meet you in conversations which inspire and equip you to know yourself, to identify your goals, and to design strategies for moving forward.

Because it's hard. Because it's heavy. Because it hurts. Because you've been struggling for a while, and it's time to reach out. You have good reasons for feeling this way. Let's discover those good reasons together, and find ways for you to live alongside anxiety and depression, stress and change, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and/or trauma. Along the way, we will learn about your perspectives and values. Some clients want to explore their pasts to help understand their present, while others want to focus on the current situation. Whatever the case, I will help you reconnect with the wisdom and strength you already possess.

Are you currently struggling with the intricate difficulties presented by long-lasting health concerns, encompassing potential experiences of trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief? This burden can be amplified by the anxiety and distress that frequently accompany pain, health-related challenges, and traumatic experiences. Navigating these interwoven challenges can result in a complex cycle that leaves you with a sense of helplessness and isolation. I provide a compassionate approach that encompasses both the physical and psychological aspects of chronic pain, health-related anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist providing psychodynamic psychotherapy for individuals, by telephone . I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, bereavement, anger, addictions and trauma. I also assist people in their understanding of how these and other such difficulties can affect their relationships with themselves (low self esteem), and with others (families, friends and colleagues) and vice versa. This understanding opens up the avenues for change that you may be looking for. I believe that we all have a natural striving for health, but often lose connection with it due to life's vicissitudes.

Maintaining strong, intimate adult relationships is a challenge for anyone in today's busy world. For some people, anxiety and depression may be impacting their personal happiness, parenting, marriage or career. Others have had painful life histories that interfere with being able to feel safely connected with loved ones and peers. Grief, family transition, communication problems, trauma, and ADHD can make it difficult to find the meaning and connection that give life its joy. As founder of the Oakville Schema Therapy Center, I use my extensive experience in ST as a powerful, effective approach to making changes in your life.

Living a balanced, meaningful life with a grounded sense of self and loving connections can be a difficult thing to achieve and maintain.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming and stressful, thus making it difficult to cope. Therefore, my hope is to help you work through some of your issues (i.e., anxiety, grief, loss) that you are struggling with by providing the skills, insight, and knowledge you need to lead a life you want. I know talking to someone about painful emotions and memories can be difficult so thank you for taking the first step to seeking help.

I count it a privilege to support clients facing mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief, stress, career counselling, life transitions, substance use, low self-esteem, or trauma. To accomplish this, I encourage clients to ask...and answer...the WHY question. WHY am I feeling anxious? WHY can’t I make relationships work? WHY can’t I get out of this funk? WHY are my thoughts so scattered? WHY do I have trust issues? WHY I am unhappy? WHY do I allow others to treat me this way? WHY do I abuse drugs, food, or alcohol? WHY do I have trouble loving myself? WHY am I so afraid of being vulnerable?

Are you feeling disconnected to yourself, loved ones, or society? Do you question whether you are a good father, son, or partner? Do you feel angry, stuck, overwhelmed, powerless, guilty, or "not normal". Many men struggle with their mental health without seeking help or reaching out for support. Often, this struggle may lead to addiction, anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, suicidal ideation, poor relationships, grief, low self-esteem, or low self-worth.
