Grief
Barbara Freedman
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor
Recovery through an experiential means of grieving is essential in that one cannot get over the heartbreak until they allow themselves to feel it. Experiential focused techniques involve fully experiencing our emotions and unmet needs, in effort to transcend this pain. One of my most unique specialties focus on Survivors of Suicide(S.O.S), I am a trained Survivors of Suicide(S.O.S), facilitator who has previously co-facilitated this group, for those who are grieving the loss of a family member or loved one by suicide. One of the complexities of mourning a suicide involves the additional shock of a sudden death, in which the bereaved may not feel they had the chance to ask or say what they needed to. The second tier of this grief involves a violent death. Many mourners suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, particularly if they have discovered the body. This often adds to a sense of sur-realness or not fitting in with the rest of grieving society. The support system of survivors of suicide may be weaker than those afflicted with other types of mourning. Loved ones may pull away due to their own sense of helplessness and discomfort, leaving them with a further sense of isolation and loss. Survivors require guidance regarding how to talk to their children about the manner in which their loved one died. Due to the many complexities of this process, survivors of suicide may get stuck in any particular phase of grief or take much longer to complete them. As a result of all these special challenges, survivors of suicide require enough safety to share their story with others, whom they feel can understand the uniqueness of their pain. This is a particularly special and complicated grieving process which I believe requires the specific training and experience which I offer to clinically assist those who are in this category of mourners.

David Rockman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW RSW BA psych hon
Embracing the journey grief can be a profound and transformative experience. As a specialist in treating people with loss and grief, I work with individualist navigate the complexities of their emotions and find healing through Narrative Therapy and an Internal Family Systems approach. Grief is a powerful force that has a life of its own, often reflecting the depth of love we hold for what we have lost. By engaging in an internal dialogue with our grief, we can begin to unravel its meaning and use it as a source of wisdom and growth. Through this process, we can nourish ourselves with the lessons grief has to offer and move towards a state of peace and acceptance. Remember, it is okay to seek support and guidance during times of loss. You are not alone on this journey.

I offer a gentle, compassionate space where you can slow down and be with your grief in your own way and at your own pace.
From a Gestalt perspective, our work will center on your present-moment experience—bringing awareness to the thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations that arise as you move through loss. Grief is not something to fix or move past, but something to be met, felt, and honored. Together, we’ll make space for the many layers of your experience, including the complexities, contradictions, and unfinished feelings that often accompany grief.

Donald Hill
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div., M.Th., RMFT, RP
The people who have touched our lives, family members, and special friends (pets) we love are important to us. When anything risks those we love, we also feel distressed. Our deep connection to them means we experience this incredible emptiness when they die. Though we know that death is normal, natural, and inevitable, this knowledge does not eliminate the emotional pain of our loss. Through my losses and the losses of others, I have learned that life is over, but it is never finished. If you are experiencing a recent loss of a family member, friend, or special friend, I am available to journey with you through this loss. Book a free 15-minute consultation today.

Grief is not something to "get over" but a process of integrating loss into your life. My approach provides a space to honor your emotions without judgment, whether you're mourning a loved one, a relationship, or a part of yourself. Using mindfulness, depth psychology, and somatic awareness, we explore the impact of loss—allowing space for both sorrow and meaning. Rather than rushing through grief, therapy helps you move with it, finding ways to process pain while staying connected to life.

Grief
Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
Grief is a normal and adaptive process, and as such, does not necessarily need treatment. However, some people feel that their feelings of grief are overwhelming. Others feel ‘stuck’ in their grief and would like to talk to someone. The focus of grief therapy is to help you to work through your feelings of grief, to feel supported, and to help you regain a sense of control, and move forward in your life in a way that feels appropriate to you.
Treatment length at MindFit depends on how a person is currently functioning, and how impairing feelings of grief are on daily activities. It may range from 6 to 16 sessions.
During treatment, members work with clincians on a number of strategies, which may include understanding the grief process and telling one’s grief story, identifying and modifying unhelpful thoughts or beliefs, carving out time to process the one’s feelings, becoming re-engaged in activities, relaxation and mindfulness strategies, assertive communication skills, self-compassion exercises, and/or identifying and working on one’s values. Our coaches can work with you on tasks that can help in the grieving process, such as writing about your grief, managing through ‘firsts,’ creating rituals or memories in honour of a loved one, etc.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
When we grieve, many of our past losses bombard us, longing to be mourned and felt. Stored up tragedies that we have not yet grieved come to the surface. When you are in the throws of this, it can feel like the floor has collapsed beneath you and you no longer know who you are. You may be grieving the loss of a relationship, identity, health, dream or combination of these. It can be a particularly lonely place, and those around you may mean well but not understand what is going on or how to support you. Our passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and irritable. We are interested in getting to know your experience and unique pain point.
We prioritize rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.
