Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Grief is often a complex response to what is missing from our lives—whether that is the loss of a loved one or the realization that we never received the care, safety, or parenting we deserved. Drawing on over 15 years of experience, I help you navigate the heavy, often unacknowledged pain of a 'relationship that never was'; for example, not having the relationship with parents you needed or wanted.
Using a Parts Work lens, we create a compassionate space to honor the parts of you that are still carrying the sadness and anger of those unmet needs. We don't just focus on 'moving on'; we focus on giving those younger parts of you the acknowledgment they never received. By witnessing and healing these old wounds, we work to transform your grief into a grounded sense of self-compassion and internal peace.

Kayla Schofield
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
It's a natural emotional response to losing someone in your life. It can often come with divorce, illness and childhood abuse. There are typically 7 stages of grief. Grief like with any healing is not linear.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Grief can be experienced due to a multitude of losses. We often experience grief after the death of a loved one. Other times we have feelings of grief that surface due to ambiguous losses—such as the loss of a stage of life, the loss of not having children; or grief that emerges after a job loss or a move to a new city. Grief is not a problem to be fixed, it is a natural process of life that needs to be experienced—often in community or with a caring other. Therapy can be a safe place to bear witness to these losses and the grief that accompanies them, while honouring your memories, wishes and also creating meaning for the future.

Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Experiencing the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a dream, or a familiar phase of life can fundamentally shake your world. Grief is not a linear process with a neat timeline; it comes in waves, bringing a heavy mix of sadness, anger, confusion, and exhaustion. You don't have to carry that weight in isolation. Using a compassionate, evidence-based approach, we will work collaboratively to create a safe space for your story, honor the depth of your experience, and gently navigate the path toward living alongside your loss with grace and self-compassion.
