Whether it's the loss or terminal sickness of a loved one or a forced change of life circumstances, adapting to the new normal can be incredibly difficult and even isolating. Grief is the conflicting feelings caused by the end of or change in a familiar pattern of behavior. It is a normal and natural emotional reaction to loss or change of any kind. Grief is neither a pathological condition nor a personality disorder, but when undergoing the various stages grief encompasses, you may feel as if you are not the same person you once were. You may find yourself bewildered with next steps or just barely coping with all of the various feelings grief produces. As you navigate through the various stages of grief, it's easy to become "stuck". If you find this happening to you, hypnosis can be a safe and natural alternative to assist you with overcoming these barriers.

Grief
Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Grief isn’t linear, and it doesn’t follow a timeline. Therapy helps you process the waves—sadness, anger, numbness, guilt—while learning how to carry the loss without losing yourself. You can honor what mattered and still rebuild a life with meaning.

Grief
Veronica Lowe
Registered Psychotherapist, MC, RP, CCC
By integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help individuals navigate the waves of mourning without becoming lost in them. Rather than fighting the pain, I teach mindfulness and self-compassion techniques that allow clients to acknowledge their grief while slowly reconnecting with their personal values and finding meaningful ways to engage with life again.

Justin Mulder
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
Grief and loss can reshape your world in ways that are hard to put into words. Whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, a sense of stability, or a version of the life you expected, the emotional impact can show up in many different ways such as sadness, numbness, anger, confusion, or even guilt. In therapy, there isn’t pressure to “move on” or rush the process. Instead, we make space for the full experience of grief while finding ways to carry the loss without it completely overwhelming your life.

Ashleigh Bell

Grief can follow death, breakup, illness, or any major transition—and it rarely follows a neat timeline. I provide a gentle space to tell your story, feel your emotions at your own pace, and find ways of staying connected to what you’ve lost while slowly moving forward.

Whitby is a Durham Region community east of Toronto, notably home to Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences, one of Ontario's largest dedicated mental health hospitals, which reflects the significance of mental health as a local concern and provides specialized inpatient and outpatient psychiatric services that make the area an important hub for mental health care in the eastern Greater Toronto Area. The city has grown rapidly as a commuter community for Toronto, with GO Transit service making the journey manageable, and the pressures of long commutes and the costs of homeownership are among the stressors residents bring to therapy. A private therapy sector serves those seeking outpatient counselling, and the presence of Ontario Shores means that more intensive mental health needs can be addressed locally rather than requiring travel to Toronto. Common therapy concerns include commuter and work-life stress, family and parenting pressures, anxiety, and the transition challenges of a rapidly growing community.
