Claire Benade
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Grief affects each individual differently and while there are stages of grief they can come and go and often surprise us when the feelings show up. We often do not realize the life events that can lead to feelings of grief and loss which can include the loss of a pet, divorce, or even life changes where we grieve the loss of our old career or routine. I will work with you on strategies for coping as well as looking at the larger family dynamics (if relevant) to ensure the best support for you during these difficult times. I will help support you as we work through the thoughts and feelings you are having. Focusing on therapeutic relationship and building trust allows me to help support you while using a solution-focused lens.

Nicholas Breitenbach
Psychologist, R. Psych, CST, MA, BA
Grief isn’t linear, and it doesn’t follow a tidy timeline—sometimes it’s sadness, sometimes it’s numbness, anger, relief, or all of the above before lunch. I help clients process loss in a way that honours what mattered, while also supporting the very real day-to-day impact grief can have on sleep, relationships, and functioning. Together we’ll make room for the pain, reduce the sense of being stuck, and help you carry the loss differently over time—without pretending it didn’t matter.

Grief can arise from the loss of a loved one, relationship, life transition, health change, or other significant experiences. Everyone grieves differently, and the process can bring a wide range of emotions including sadness, anger, confusion, guilt, and loneliness. Therapy provides compassionate support and a safe space to process grief, honour loss, and navigate healing at your own pace.
