Loss or Grief
Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
It's important to feel we have permission to grieve when we've experienced a loss. Many struggle to grieve especially when they didn't feel safe to grieve as a child. In counselling we'll walk through the grieving process, normalizing the cognitive, emotional and somatic symptoms the client is experiencing.

Loss or Grief
Colin Hayward
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd
When working with grief, I focus on creating space for the emotions that often feel difficult to face. It’s very common for people to try to push grief aside or stay busy in order to avoid the pain that comes with loss. While that can help in the short term, healing often begins when we allow ourselves to gradually experience and work through those emotions rather than avoiding them. Working through our grief is a long term process that will change as we learn to integrate our past and our loss with the many ways we an begin to move forward.

Loss or Grief
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Losing your partner, someone you love, your career—whether through layoff, termination, or forced retirement—isn't just about losing income. It's about losing identity, purpose, routine, and sometimes your sense of worth. This grief is real, and I see it frequently in my practice. Using the stages of grief as a framework, we'll explore where you are in this painful journey: the shock, anger, bargaining, depression, and eventual acceptance. You'll be heard without judgment, validated in your pain, and encouraged as you process both the practical challenges and the deeper identity questions. This loss doesn't define you. Together, we'll help you rediscover who you are beyond the job title.

Loss or Grief
Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
Grief is one of the most profound and disorienting experiences a person can face, and at Nightingale Counselling we recognize that it is not a linear process but a deeply personal one shaped by each individual's relationships, cultural background, spiritual beliefs, and sources of meaning. Our therapists are trained to hold space for the full complexity of loss, including not just sadness but the anger, guilt, anxiety, and disbelief that grief so often carries alongside it, and we offer specialized support for a wide range of experiences including spousal loss, suicide bereavement, pet loss, complicated grief, and violent or unanticipated loss. At Nightingale, grief counselling is a collaborative and culturally attuned process, with the goal of helping clients move from the overwhelming disorientation of loss toward acceptance, relief, and a renewed sense of hope.
