Grief
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.

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.

Loralee Schultz
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Psyc, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO & CCPA & BCACC Member
Grief is a deeply isolating experience, and our culture frequently rushes people to 'move on' before they are truly ready. In my practice, I believe that loss cannot be neatly resolved or fixed; instead, it needs to be safely carried and witnessed. I offer a gentle, non-judgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are, with all of the messy, unpredictable emotions that accompany profound loss. Together, we will honour your timeline, process the emotional weight at your own pace, and gently explore how to carry your grief forward without losing your connection to yourself.

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.

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.
