Grief
Shaunna Grams, Grams Counselling Services Inc.
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Grief and bereavement are difficult experiences that need to be acknowledged. Loss, disappointment and pain are felt by all of us but are often given little air time or processing. Grief matters as it points us toward what we value and hope for. Better understanding your grief or bereavement encounters helps move us through experiences versus feeling stuck in them.

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.

The Okanagan is British Columbia's lake-and-vineyard interior region, anchored by Kelowna and including Vernon, Penticton, and a string of lakeside communities that mix agriculture, wine tourism, and tech growth in one of Canada's most popular retirement destinations. The region's mental health picture includes seasonal tourism economy stress, wildfire and smoke-season anxiety after repeated severe fire years, and the isolation some newcomers and retirees feel after relocating. Therapy access centres on Kelowna's growing practitioner community, with Interior Health providing public services and telehealth extending reach across the valley's smaller communities.
