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.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
I work with individuals navigating grief and loss in its many forms, whether after the death of a loved one or pet, the end of a relationship, a major life transition, or another meaningful loss. Grief can feel overwhelming, confusing, or difficult to move through, especially when the world expects you to simply “move on.” Using a trauma-informed, compassionate, and somatic approach - we make space for your grief while tending to the emotional and nervous system impacts of loss. The goal is not to rush the grieving process, but to help you move through it with compassion, support, and a deeper sense of stability, self-trust, understanding, and meaning.

The pain of loss can feel overwhelming, whether it’s the death of a loved one, a relationship, or a life transition. In therapy, we can work through your grief in a way that respects your individual process. Together, we’ll explore your feelings, memories, and emotions, allowing you to heal and adjust to life after loss. My compassionate approach will provide a space for you to honor your grief, learn to cope with the emotional impact, and ultimately move forward with hope and healing.

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.

Abby Tait
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Grief can be disorienting in ways that are hard to explain. Some days it feels like sadness; other days it shows up as numbness, anger, or a deep exhaustion. You may be moving through daily life while carrying a loss that isn’t always visible to others. Over time, healing becomes less about “getting through” grief and more about understanding your relationship with it. Meaning begins to take shape as you learn to live a life that holds both their presence and their absence. Using attachment and psychodynamic-informed approaches alongside Compassion-Focused Therapy, ACT, and DBT, I offer a steady, compassionate space to grieve in your own way and at your own pace.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Grief hurts, and it can bring up all kinds of emotions, sometimes all at once. Whether you're grieving a death, a relationship, a change in health or ability, or something else you've lost, there isn't one right way to experience it. I use Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to support you in exploring your experience of grief, making space for the different feelings and parts of yourself that may come up, and building capacity to be with what you're feeling.
