Grief
Vilma Madramootoo
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Certified Health, Wellness and Life Coach
The grieving process is unique to each individual, with no set timeline or roadmap. It is a journey marked by waves of emotions, memories, and adjustments to life without what was lost. I offered self-care practices, compassionate listening, and honoring your memories of the loss to help you heal and accept. We go through the Stages of Grief and Loss allowing you to be balanced and understand your up and down emotions.

Grief
Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Loss and grief affect both the mind and body, often showing up as heaviness, tension, fatigue, or emotional numbness. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping individuals safely process emotions, express their grief, release stored tension, and gradually find a sense of healing, acceptance, and connection.

Grief
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Grief and loss can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, and deeply personal. While it may come from the loss of a loved one, grief can also arise from the end of a relationship, changes in identity, unmet expectations, or other significant life transitions. You might notice waves of sadness, anger, numbness, or disconnection, and it can feel isolating when others don’t fully understand the depth of what you’re experiencing.
In our work together, we’ll create a space where your grief is allowed, without pressure to move on or feel differently than you do. We’ll gently explore your experience, making room for both the pain of the loss and the meaning it holds. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll also support your nervous system in processing grief, helping you feel more grounded and better able to carry your loss over time.
I draw from approaches such as IFS, ACT, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll focus on building compassionate ways to navigate your grief, while supporting connection, self-understanding, and healing in your own time.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Shaunna Grams, Grams Counselling Services Inc.
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Grief and bereavement are difficult experiences that need to be acknowledged. Loss, disappointment and pain are felt by all of us but are often given little air time or processing. Grief matters as it points us toward what we value and hope for. Better understanding your grief or bereavement encounters helps move us through experiences versus feeling stuck in them.

Grief
Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
There is no "correct" way to experience loss or grief, nor is there a "wrong" way. You can feel grief/loss for a variety of reasons: maybe you lost a close friend or family member, a beloved pet, or experienced a separation or estrangement from an important relationship. Through therapy, we will process your grief by accepting the existence of the loss, exploring the emotions attached (including processing any associated trauma), and adjusting to life afterward, while integrating the impact the relationship had on your life.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Losing your partner, someone you love, your career—whether through layoff, termination, or forced retirement—isn't just about losing income. It's about losing identity, purpose, routine, and sometimes your sense of worth. This grief is real, and I see it frequently in my practice. Using the stages of grief as a framework, we'll explore where you are in this painful journey: the shock, anger, bargaining, depression, and eventual acceptance. You'll be heard without judgment, validated in your pain, and encouraged as you process both the practical challenges and the deeper identity questions. This loss doesn't define you. Together, we'll help you rediscover who you are beyond the job title.

Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I support clients through grief and loss that feel complicated, unresolved, or hard to put into words. I am trained in Induced After Death Communication (IADC), an extension of EMDR, which can gently help process complex and prolonged grief. Our work honours the uniqueness of your grief—there is no right timeline or right way to move through it. Together, we create space for both the sorrow and the ongoing bond, allowing grief to shift and soften.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/

Grief is a human emotion response to loss, often related to abandonment from the death of a loved one, a relationship brake-up, the loss of a job. There are a variety of responses and stages to loss and grief, related to sadness, anger, depression, loss of sleep, loss of eating and other confusing moments of emotions. Healing is possible with the awareness that life is a cycle which no one has a common answer to..,

Colin Hayward
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd
When working with grief, I focus on creating space for the emotions that often feel difficult to face. It’s very common for people to try to push grief aside or stay busy in order to avoid the pain that comes with loss. While that can help in the short term, healing often begins when we allow ourselves to gradually experience and work through those emotions rather than avoiding them. Working through our grief is a long term process that will change as we learn to integrate our past and our loss with the many ways we an begin to move forward.

Grief
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Grief is often a complex response to what is missing from our lives—whether that is the loss of a loved one or the realization that we never received the care, safety, or parenting we deserved. Drawing on over 15 years of experience, I help you navigate the heavy, often unacknowledged pain of a 'relationship that never was'; for example, not having the relationship with parents you needed or wanted.
Using a Parts Work lens, we create a compassionate space to honor the parts of you that are still carrying the sadness and anger of those unmet needs. We don't just focus on 'moving on'; we focus on giving those younger parts of you the acknowledgment they never received. By witnessing and healing these old wounds, we work to transform your grief into a grounded sense of self-compassion and internal peace.
