Grief Therapists in St John's, NL

We all experience challenges in life and reaching out for support can be very difficult and overwhelming for most people. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space for you or your child so that you feel welcome, supported, and validated. We will work collaboratively to set individualized therapeutic goals that best meet you or your child's current priorities and needs. I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan, including children (5+), teens, and adults.

Loss and change can leave us feeling like the rug has been pulled out from under us; our foundation feels shaky and things seem like they will never be the same (including you). When you lose someone you love through death or a relationship change, the loss is felt deeply. Other life transitions can leave you grieving and struggling in much the same way. Navigating loss and change is easier said than done, but with the right support, it's possible.

Everyone needs additional support at times. Life can become tangled with mixed emotions and underlying thoughts or beliefs. There may be unexpected obstacles, challenges and changes in your life causing you to feel stressed, anxious or overwhelmed, or you may not identify with how you are feeling, but you have noticed that your mood and behaviours have changed. You may not be aware of the physical and/or social impact this may be having on your life. Together we can identify your inner strengths and develop additional strategies and tools to not only help you cope, but to support you and help you grow.

It can be very difficult to find a therapist who you might feel can be helpful to you. I like to think of therapy as first and most importantly a relationship. Some might have a sense that things are not as they might hope. We live in a time of loneliness, confusion, separation, conflict and it seems our cultural framework that is meant to hold all of this together is failing. At the heart of what is missing for so many is a place of love and belonging. Or perhaps you’ve lost sight of a sense of meaning in your life? Maybe you’ve received recently some deeply troubling news about your own health or the recent loss of a loved one?

Trauma occurs many ways – abuse, accidents, divorce, death and it can suck the life right out of you. Maybe you’ve had sleepless nights and restless mornings and it does not feel worth it to get out of bed. Maybe you've thought of harming yourself or possibly had suicidal thoughts. Trauma can affect all parts of your life; your relationships, your ability to work, your ability to feel safe and happy. Sometimes you feel like all is well and that you have dealt with it. You feel fine and 6 months later it feels like it just happened, It is possible to get your life back. Reach out, I can help.
