Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Grief is one of the most painful feelings we will ever experience. It comes and goes in waves, sometimes bringing us to our knees unable to breath, and other times leaving us feeling almost normal (with or without accompanying guilt). Whatever the circumstances of your loss, grief is not meant to be experienced alone. Whether through family, community, friendship, or faith, we must find a way to live with shattered dreams, and the pervasive ache of loss. When help is needed, we are here for you. Reach out today to help us find the right person to support you at this time.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
It's important to feel we have permission to grieve when we've experienced a loss. Many struggle to grieve especially when they didn't feel safe to grieve as a child. In counselling we'll walk through the grieving process, normalizing the cognitive, emotional and somatic symptoms the client is experiencing.

EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Loss or grief exposes a profound journey of navigating the intricate landscape of human emotions amidst significant ruptures in attachment bonds. Loss sets off a series of emotions that echo the depths of prior wounds and relational dynamics because it is rooted in the fabric of our closest connections. Like a storm on the horizon, grief engulfs individuals in a whirlwind of sadness, anger, and longing, amplifying the ache of unmet emotional needs and the scars of past traumas. Therapy becomes a sanctuary amidst the turbulence, offering a space to honour the complexity of grief, process the echoes of past losses, and cultivate resilience in the face of profound sorrow. By nurturing compassionate connections and fostering self-compassion, individuals can navigate the terrain of grief with greater grace, finding solace in shared humanity and forging a path towards healing and renewal.
