The Inner Collective Clinical Psychology
Psychologist, Doctor of Clinical Psychology, Master of Science, Bachelor of Arts (Psych. Hons.)
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline, and it can show up in ways you didn’t expect—emotionally, physically, and in the quiet moments of everyday life. At The Inner Collective, we offer gentle, non-judgemental support as you process the loss of a loved one, relationship, identity, or life path. You don’t have to move on or find silver linings—you just have to take the next step, and we’re here to walk with you through it.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have worked with many people from different cultures around grief & loss. Grief & loss is not limited to death, it is also a major component in dealing with chronic illness/pain. It also includes end of life care, which I have supported terminal patients & their loved ones through.

Grief
Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Waves of grief can catch you off guard. Just when you think you've made sense of a loss in your head, your emotions swell and tears flow. I navigated a lot of grief in my life and so I feel very anchored and compassionate when sitting with clients wanting to move through their loss. It can be a lot more supportive to not go this journey alone but lean on a caring professional to guide you through this. Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.

Grief
Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
In the realm of grief and loss, it is essential to understand that these experiences are multi-layered and complex. One must recognise that grief and loss often maintain their significant impact over time, meaning the ‘size’ of the loss remains ‘big’ thus, the process of healing through grief entails growing around that loss. Clients are provided with the tools and support to navigate their intricate emotions and the challenges that accompany bereavement and loss. Through the application of evidence-based practice (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs, clients are guided in working through their grief and adjusting to their loss, ultimately fostering emotional healing and resilience. Be it coping with the loss of a loved one, managing life transitions, or addressing other forms of grief, the goal remains consistent: to steer clients towards a path of acceptance and a positive reconnection with life.
