Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed understanding, loss or grief create an experience of disconnectedness that often result in feeling lonely, isolated, abandoned, failed, rejected, lost among others. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your loss or grief, developing healthier and more helpful ways of coping with it, and ultimately helping you process it so you reconnect and move on with your life.

Grief
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.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
Grief is love with nowhere to go, and there's no timeline, no right way, no "getting over it." Whether your loss is recent or years old, a person, a relationship, a health, or a future you'd imagined, the weight of it deserves space. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental place to feel what you feel without being rushed or fixed, to make sense of a world that's changed, and to slowly carry your loss differently. The goal isn't to move on, it's to move forward with your grief, staying connected to what mattered while rebuilding a life that can hold both sorrow and joy. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, more supported, and more able to live fully again.

Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
Grief is one of the most profound and disorienting experiences a person can face, and at Nightingale Counselling we recognize that it is not a linear process but a deeply personal one shaped by each individual's relationships, cultural background, spiritual beliefs, and sources of meaning. Our therapists are trained to hold space for the full complexity of loss, including not just sadness but the anger, guilt, anxiety, and disbelief that grief so often carries alongside it, and we offer specialized support for a wide range of experiences including spousal loss, suicide bereavement, pet loss, complicated grief, and violent or unanticipated loss. At Nightingale, grief counselling is a collaborative and culturally attuned process, with the goal of helping clients move from the overwhelming disorientation of loss toward acceptance, relief, and a renewed sense of hope.

Grief
Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Grief is a natural response to a loss. Losses often involve a death of a partner, family member, friend, or pet. Feelings associated with grief vary but can include sadness, anger, guilt, regret, and helplessness. The way in which individuals adapt to a loss depends on a variety of factors such as coping style, age, beliefs, and personality variables. In order to assist clients with working through their grief issues I largely work from the task theory perspective developed by psychologist J.W. Worden. His model is referred to as the Four Tasks of Mourning.
The Tasks of Mourning are as follows:
Task 1: To accept the reality of the loss.
Task 2: To process the pain of grief.
Task 3: To adjust to a life without the deceased.
Adjusting adaptively often includes making external, internal, and spiritual adjustments.
Task 4: To maintain a continuing bond with the deceased while embarking on a new life.
Individuals experiencing grief may be struggling with at least one of the four tasks of mourning. A major reason for the model’s effectiveness is that the tasks imply that clients can actively do something to manage their grief symptoms. As we collaboratively explore the tasks of mourning and identify the areas that are challenging to work through, clients gain an understanding of how their thoughts, emotions, or behaviours have prevented them from adaptively moving through the grief process.
Clients may also notice how their coping styles have prevented them from grieving effectively with past losses. As they move through the tasks of mourning they often develop a sense of control over their lives, which is a crucial step in alleviating feelings of helplessness. Additionally, clients give themselves the permission to embark on a new life while finding meaningful ways of staying connected to what was lost.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Grief doesn't follow the stages, and it doesn't finish on a schedule. I work with people carrying loss in all its forms, death, but also the losses that don't get funerals: relationships, identities, futures that didn't happen. I'm not going to reframe it as a lesson or tell you what it's made you. Sometimes it is simply loss, and it deserves somewhere to be held as that.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
The waves of grief crash in unexpected ways at unexpected times with unexpected outcomes. Within my Holistic Life Coaching practice and through my own personal experience, I have cultivated tools, methods, and experiments that approach grief and loss through the lens of curiosity, expansiveness, and nonjudgment. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. Coaching can absolutely complement and supplement your therapy work; our work is therapeutic without being therapy. Without stagnating in your grief, together we can discover what your grief means to you, what it is bringing to your life, and how we can use it to manifest the life you desire. From where you are sitting right now that may sound like a difficult, if not impossible task. My mother always said "nothing beats failure but a try." I invite you to try coaching to discover what happens when you allow yourself to speak your truth and feel however and whatever you are feeling in a safe, nonjudgmental space dedicated to you and your growth.

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.

Loss or grief deeply affects us physically and emotionally. Through balancing the central nervous system and brain along with counselling the body and mind are brought through a gentle process of grief. We can grieve many things: expectations, identity, relationships, careers, health, and the past.

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.

Fiona Matalon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Every day we encounter loss and grief in many different forms - every passing minute is a minute of our lives that we are not getting back. Once we start exploring our the depths of our grief, we discover that it is directly proportional with our capacity for love. As love, grief asks for companionship and to be held. I invite you to reach out for support so we can hold it together.
