Grief
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.

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.

Grief
Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, (RTC)(ACCT), C.HypTM -Trauma Specialist, B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Grief is a deeply personal experience that can arise from the loss of a loved one, relationship changes, health challenges, or significant life transitions. I offer a compassionate and supportive space where individuals can express their emotions freely, without pressure to “move on” or heal within a timeline.
My approach to grief counselling is trauma-informed and paced, helping clients process loss while restoring emotional stability and inner strength. Together, we work to understand the impact of grief on the mind and body, develop coping strategies, and gently rebuild meaning, connection, and hope in daily life.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Loss and Grief can be completely debilitating. It takes tremendous energy to cope with loosing someone or something that you were attached to. Did you know that we expect a significant loss to take upwards of 1 year to recover from. If it's been longer than a year it's time to look into what else may be preventing you from moving forward in your life.
