Loss or Grief
Dr. Robert T. Muller
Psychologist, Ph.D., C.Psych.
Psychotherapy with people who have experienced losses, especially traumatic losses often centers around grief and mourning. Navigating the many challenges of mourning while trying to cope with present day life is what I help people work on in therapy.

Loss or Grief
Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
Grief is a normal and adaptive process, and as such, does not necessarily need treatment. However, some people feel that their feelings of grief are overwhelming. Others feel ‘stuck’ in their grief and would like to talk to someone. The focus of grief therapy is to help you to work through your feelings of grief, to feel supported, and to help you regain a sense of control, and move forward in your life in a way that feels appropriate to you.
Treatment length at MindFit depends on how a person is currently functioning, and how impairing feelings of grief are on daily activities. It may range from 6 to 16 sessions.
During treatment, members work with clincians on a number of strategies, which may include understanding the grief process and telling one’s grief story, identifying and modifying unhelpful thoughts or beliefs, carving out time to process the one’s feelings, becoming re-engaged in activities, relaxation and mindfulness strategies, assertive communication skills, self-compassion exercises, and/or identifying and working on one’s values. Our coaches can work with you on tasks that can help in the grieving process, such as writing about your grief, managing through ‘firsts,’ creating rituals or memories in honour of a loved one, etc.

Stacy Kirkbride - Turnpage Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist
There is no one way to grieve, but rather it is a process that is as individual as the person we have lost. As a Registered Psychotherapist and Recreation Therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing loss, grief, and complicated/complex grief, using a narrative approach that helps with integrating the loss, as well as techniques to assist with associated depression, anxiety, and sense of self.

*Welcoming new clients for immediate booking* Are you struggling to adjust to a "new normal"? Whether it be from the loss of a loved one or from the end of a relationship or a significant life transition, these feelings of grief are real and they can be intense. Though I will never know exactly what you're feeling, I can help you process the many emotions that will surface as you move through the grieving process. Allow me to support you in finding acceptance and a way forward following your loss. I will support you with learning new skills to help you cope and will provide you the space to just 'be' if that's what you need... nothing will be asked of you, no demands will be made of you, you can just use the time to process things at a pace that feels comfortable. Little by little, you'll find that pain and love will find new ways to coexist. Allow me to support you.

Clare Karasik
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW
Grief can be one of the most gut-wrenching feelings we may experience as humans. Grief can affect how we see ourselves, how we see the world, what we value, and what we want. Whether you are grieving loss of a life, a relationship, a job, our physical health, ideas of how our life would look, or anything else, I provide support to process difficult feelings, engage in self-care, establish new parts of your identity, and determine boundaries that feel right for you. I recognize that there is no "right" way to grieve and hold space for whatever it looks like for you.

Loss or Grief
Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Being alive means experiencing inevitable loss, which is normally followed by grief and recovery. The loss can be the loss of a person, image, ideal, or even a hope. However, the grief and recovery can sometimes be complicated. Every person follows a unique pattern of grief processing. The key for a healthy recovery lies in understanding this pattern in a supported environment. The therapy is about helping the client to get to this insight. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Loss and death is a natural part of our existence. All the emotions that usually come on board are also normal. Holding space for people to do this natural work and move through their emotions is a privilege.

Loss or Grief
Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
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.

Loss or Grief
Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
To lose and mourn those we love and care for is one of the fundamental givens of these human lives we lead. Grief is like an ocean tide: the ebb and flow - an ongoing, non-linear process that involves many phases of feeling, remembering and making meaning from these experiences. Therapy can provide a space to grapple with the both the immediate and life-long experience of grief as well as with the existential anxiety that can result when we confront death as a universal truth.
