Grief
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are walking through loss or grief, you may feel waves of sadness that come without warning. Grief can manifest as tears, anger, numbness, exhaustion, or even guilt over moments of relief or laughter. Whether you have lost a loved one, a relationship, a dream, or a season of life, the ache can feel disorienting and deeply personal.
At Selah Counselling, we honour the uniqueness of your grief. There is no timetable and no right way to mourn. We provide a steady space where you can speak about what was lost, process the emotions that surface, and make sense of how this loss has shaped you. Our work focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, helping you integrate the loss into your story, and gently rebuilding hope at a pace that respects your heart. Grief does not disappear, but it can soften as you are supported and understood.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space for individuals navigating grief, loss, and life transitions. I understand that grieving is a deeply personal and sometimes unpredictable process, and believe that healing comes from being fully supported, seen, and validated.
Using an integrative approach I help clients explore and process complex emotions, honour their experiences, and develop coping strategies to navigate life after loss. My approach emphasizes self-compassion, resilience, and creating meaningful steps toward emotional balance.
I offer a safe and supportive environment to work through grief, rebuild a sense of stability, and rediscover hope and meaning in life—one compassionate step at a time.

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.

Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
I believe grief is a sacred thing. So we need to make space for it and carefully, respectfully, explore how you might want to shift it in your life. Sometimes it is good to know and remember that grief and love can be separated and look forward to a time when you can feel the love and not be blown away by the grief.

Donna McLean
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA Honours (Psychology), MSW, RSW
Loss and grief are a part of life-we experience them because we live and love, because we care. If you feel stuck and alone in grief and loss, I can travel with you providing support and guidance. Sometimes we may need help being with the parts of us that feel sad. Getting to the other side of grief and loss is not about forgetting the loss, it is about being richer in living for having lost.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Grief is a natural and personal response to loss. It is important to allow and feel the emotions that arise, sadness, anger, frustration, confusion, or even numbness. In our work together, I create space for the full range of these experiences. Rather than trying to “move on,” I support clients in gently processing their loss, making sense of what it means to them, and finding a way to stay connected to what matters while continuing to live forward with greater presence and care.

Ingrid Sthare

There are many losses. Death, jobs, relationships, etc. Our society doesn’t really have a plan to grieve loss. I created a program to do just that.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Grief can be experienced due to a multitude of losses. We often experience grief after the death of a loved one. Other times we have feelings of grief that surface due to ambiguous losses—such as the loss of a stage of life, the loss of not having children; or grief that emerges after a job loss or a move to a new city. Grief is not a problem to be fixed, it is a natural process of life that needs to be experienced—often in community or with a caring other. Therapy can be a safe place to bear witness to these losses and the grief that accompanies them, while honouring your memories, wishes and also creating meaning for the future.

Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
Having experienced significant losses myself, I understand the profound impact grief has. As Zig Ziglar said, "If there was no love, there would be no grief." Grief is never easy, and while often associated with death, it can also stem from relationship endings, job loss, or financial difficulties. Grieving is the emotional and life adjustment after a loss. Grief is a natural response, manifesting in various ways, frequently involving strong feelings like sadness, anger, frustration, guilt and remorse. The grieving period's duration varies depending on the situation. It's a process so it's important not set timelines or expectations.
If you're feeling overwhelming upset or having trouble to get back to "normal", remember I'm here. You don't have to go through this alone. Talking about your feelings and having your grieving experience validated can greatly support your healing journey.

Florence MacGregor
Registered Psychotherapist, MFA, MPS, Embodiment Coach
Grieving is a natural process in life. Complicated grief however can disrupt your sleep, work and relationships in ways that are profoundly challenging to identity. Be not dismayed. The path has been travelled many times. If you are suffering a tragic loss or life transition like a job loss or a marriage, grieving can support the process in developing a new life moving forward.

GRIS ALVES
Counsellor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I guide clients through loss and grief with a trauma-informed, compassionate approach that honors the unseen currents of human experience. Drawing on my training and experience as a thanatologist, and the wisdom of ancient earth-based grieving traditions often lost in Western culture, I integrate ritual, ceremony, and embodied practices to help grief move through the body and psyche. Together, we explore the layers of emotion, memory, and meaning, as well as science based information on what happens to the body as we grieve in order to create a better understanding of our grieving process, as well creating a sacred space for healing, transformation, and a renewed connection to life beyond loss.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Grief does not follow a timeline and there is no right way to feel. Sometimes what gets stuck is not the grief itself but a belief that formed inside the loss, things like guilt, the sense that we should have done more or the fear that to move forward is to leave the person behind. RTT works gently with these specific subconscious meanings, not to bypass the grieving but to free what has become frozen alongside it. I do not replace bereavement support or counselling. I work with people who have already been grieving for a while and feel that something underneath is keeping them stuck.

Halifax is Atlantic Canada's largest city and a hub for universities, the military, and ocean-tech industries, creating a therapy community serving students, naval personnel, and knowledge workers navigating the pressures of high-achieving careers in a smaller city. Dalhousie University and Canadian Forces Base Halifax generate distinct demand for therapists who specialize in academic stress, military trauma, and the particular challenges of military family life. Nova Scotia Health provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the South End, Bedford, and Dartmouth. Halifax's relatively small size means specialist therapist availability can be limited in some areas, and telehealth has become especially important for accessing care across Atlantic Canada.
