Grief Therapists in L8H

As a therapist, I recognize that challenges and issues have to be engaged within a container of safety, created by compassionate therapeutic relationships. I am a firm believer that healing happens in the presence of such a connection. I aim to bring a necessary balance that is gentle yet challenging. I integrate a biopsychosocial and holistic approach that is trauma-informed and nonjudgmental to respond to a diverse range of situations. These include, but are not limited to, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, addiction, trauma, and loss.

Virtual Care. 30 min or 60 min sessions. Specialization: Neurodiversity. Including, ADHD, Autism, OCD, OCPD. Do you have symptoms that you want to understand? Lets figure it out! I also work with couples with one neurodiverse partner around communication; as well as families with neurodiverse children. Additional specializations: anxiety, loss and grief, pet loss and grief, child protection involvement, justice system involvement.

Are you struggling with the demands of life? Do you have a low mood, or big shifts in your mood? Do you find you are very critical of yourself but find compassion for others? Do you often feel misunderstood? I can help you explore these experiences and co-create meaning and solutions that fit you. I am also now providing support for couples in conflict and have a particular focus on ADHD-impacted relationships. You don't have to be in crisis to seek help. We can start now!

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who understands the importance of meeting people where they are, and walking alongside on their journey. I honour and value each person’s distinctive goals for therapy, and for themselves. I use my experience and training to work WITH you to move beyond depression, anxiety, and grief to build a state of peace.

I am accepting new clients! Life is confusing when dealing with transitions, challenges and changes. Choosing to increase your well-being takes courage and can require support. I have always been drawn to supporting others as they navigate their life journey toward growth, resiliency, well-being, and joy. Using a positive, person-centred, strength-based, and trauma-informed approach, I provide a safe and accepting space to process your mental, emotional and/or spiritual load. Here we will journey together toward your personal mental health and growth goals. Reaching out is difficult so congratulations on taking that first step!

When life stressors become overwhelming, we typically turn to familiar ways of coping. It takes self-awareness and courage to interrupt this cycle, and I commend you for taking the initial step toward meaningful change. I work with individuals struggling with the impact of a wide range of concerns: anxiety, depression, interpersonal trauma, shame, relationship issues, emotion regulation, and loss/grief. I also have extensive experience working with people who struggle with eating disorders and body image, as well as those who are enduring the challenges of integrating their cultural identity.

Primarily, I am an Acceptance and Commitment therapist (ACT), an evidence-based theory helpful with all mood disorders, pain, substance use goal, and support for families. Also, I work as a life coach and support anyone who experiences stress, grief, relationship problems and self-esteem struggles. I believe that spirituality is an important part of anyone's life, as well as laughter. Finally, I have a wealth of lived experience and have overcome many life challenges. We will work as a team to establish and reach your goals and/or dreams. Included is a 15 minute free telephone conversation.

I understand psychic and emotional crises as your body’s best effort to cope with what it is experiencing. All of our behaviours and impulses make sense if we bring a warm curiosity to the bigger picture of your life, your body, your mind and your lived experience. I work to co-create a space where you new stories about yourself can emerge, stories that are more expansive, generous and allowing of what you have lived through. Whether you are working through addiction, compulsive behaviour and thinking, anxiety, depression, grief, ruptures or general existential confusion, I am here to hold it with you.

Perhaps you have live with a great deal of anxiety, depression or internal criticism. Perhaps you are someone seeking hope, relief, peace and a deeper understanding and belief in who you are and how much you matter.

“How are you?” is a question many of us get asked several times a day, yet, the person asking is usually not interested in the honest answer to the question. I am. As a certified clinical trauma specialist, I am able to use a trauma-informed lens that highlights one’s strengths and resilience and allows for them to explore their experiences in a safe environment. Additionally, I use an informed approach when working with adults in areas regarding sex, sexual identity, sexual education, and general sexual therapy. I aim to create a safe space, one of compassion, empathy, and care, using a person-centered, integrative approach.

Are you someone who's looking for support with gender or sexuality? Are you a survivor of family violence? I have spent the last 10 years working with these communities in various social work, advocacy and activist settings. So often, the daily stressors we face are the result of oppression — e.g. capitalism, cisheteropatriarchy, racism, ableism and colonialism. I am committed to co-creating a space where these areas can be explored. I incorporate the principles of mindfulness during our time together, and I treat our therapeutic relationship as a collaborative, joint effort.

In an overwhelming and exhausting world, psychotherapy can be a refuge. When you’ve been feeling burned out, spread too thin, and isolated... When you’re keeping it together most of the time, but find it hard to understand how other people stay on top of everything... When you have always been regarded as independent or self-reliant, but underneath you wish others recognized what a struggle it’s been... Therapy is a place where you can be seen, supported, and even celebrated.
