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.

Loss or grief deeply affects us physically and emotionally. Through balancing the central nervous system and brain along with counselling the body and mind are brought through a gentle process of grief. We can grieve many things: expectations, identity, relationships, careers, health, and the past.

Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Depending on the thing we have lost, our grief may be situational or it may be something that will never go away. I work with people dealing with all kinds of losses: jobs, loved ones (including pets), relationships, financial security, health. Sometimes we are able to move past our grief, but other times it is something we have to learn to carry with us. I work with people to figure out how to carry grief in a way that means they can still function and enjoy their lives.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed understanding, loss or grief create an experience of disconnectedness that often result in feeling lonely, isolated, abandoned, failed, rejected, lost among others. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your loss or grief, developing healthier and more helpful ways of coping with it, and ultimately helping you process it so you reconnect and move on with your life.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Grief can take many forms, whether you are mourning the death of someone important, the end of a relationship, a change in health, or the loss of a future you had imagined. You may find yourself moving between sadness, anger, numbness, guilt, relief, or moments that catch you off guard entirely. I offer a compassionate space where grief does not need to be rushed, explained away, or made to fit a particular timeline. Together, we can make room for what has been lost, explore how it is affecting your sense of self and relationships, and help you find a way to carry the experience with greater steadiness, meaning, and self-compassion.
