Grief is a process of ups and downs - moving back and forth between the loss that you've experienced and the activities of moving forward. Grief has no timeline and, together, we'll look at how you can engage in the dynamic process of grief in ways that might allow you to both honor the memory of the person/dream that was lost and also engage in restorative activities that help you to also live well in the present.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
Grief lives in the body as much as in the heart. When words feel too small, expressive arts and somatic practices create space for what you're carrying to find form and release. Through movement, sound, and creative expression, we honor your loss while gently supporting your nervous system through one of life's most challenging transitions. Grief, held within spiritual context and community, becomes a path to deeper meaning.

Florence MacGregor
Registered Psychotherapist, MFA, MPS, Embodiment Coach
Grieving is a natural process in life. Complicated grief however can disrupt your sleep, work and relationships in ways that are profoundly challenging to identity. Be not dismayed. The path has been travelled many times. If you are suffering a tragic loss or life transition like a job loss or a marriage, grieving can support the process in developing a new life moving forward.

Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
I have a warrior's approach to loss: if a risk was taken for a righteous purpose, then the loss is righteous too. And "righteous" doesn't mean profitable or beneficial, it means virtuous and formative. We should all be willing to risk our lives to make our lives better. The only alternative is to live unfulfilled lives, and fail to act in ways that help others live. A loss of opportunity is worth grieving over, especially if the opportunity was not taken. But another person's decision to embrace or forfeit opportunity is something only they can be responsible for. Much like love, the most you can do is offer. You can do no more, but you must do that.
The way you deal with grief is to recognize what other things you should be grieving about now; what opportunities you're missing and the failures of those you love to recognize their opportunities. There are things everyone should do while we have the chance. If you failed to do before what you now regret, then your grief is telling you what to change. Look at those around you and ask yourself if they are living lives free of regret. Become both an advocate for and actor in what you think is missing. If others disagree or don't want to hear you, don't let that stop you.
Grief tells you to become an evangelist for what is most important; values as deep as your feelings of grief. When you act on those feelings, there is nothing for you to regret when loss occurs, and loss always occurs.
Look at past losses as messages that have finally gotten through. Become a valuable actor in the lives of those you care about. Teach others that grief is regret over opportunities lost. Your future grief will be much less if you do the most in the present.
I am a counselor with the American Alpine Club's Climbers Grief Fund. The fund offers US$600 grants to those suffering as the result of wilderness related trauma. You do not need to be a member of the American Alpine Club, and there is no cost in applying for the grant.
