You’re likely experiencing the worst pain that you’ve ever felt in your life, or maybe you’ve been feeling this pain for some time. I know personally how painful grief and loss is, and how isolating it can be. Let me help you slowly step back into your life as you walk through your grief process.

Grief
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.

Grief
Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Grief is one of the most painful feelings we will ever experience. It comes and goes in waves, sometimes bringing us to our knees unable to breath, and other times leaving us feeling almost normal (with or without accompanying guilt). Whatever the circumstances of your loss, grief is not meant to be experienced alone. Whether through family, community, friendship, or faith, we must find a way to live with shattered dreams, and the pervasive ache of loss. When help is needed, we are here for you. Reach out today to help us find the right person to support you at this time.

Grief
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are walking through loss or grief, you may feel waves of sadness that come without warning. Grief can manifest as tears, anger, numbness, exhaustion, or even guilt over moments of relief or laughter. Whether you have lost a loved one, a relationship, a dream, or a season of life, the ache can feel disorienting and deeply personal.
At Selah Counselling, we honour the uniqueness of your grief. There is no timetable and no right way to mourn. We provide a steady space where you can speak about what was lost, process the emotions that surface, and make sense of how this loss has shaped you. Our work focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, helping you integrate the loss into your story, and gently rebuilding hope at a pace that respects your heart. Grief does not disappear, but it can soften as you are supported and understood.

Grief
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.
