When you lose someone or something you love — you are forever changed.
We are so sorry for your loss.
We are so sorry for your heartbreak.
We are so sorry for the complexities of emotions you must be feeling.
Grief can take the wind out of our sails and we too can lose a piece of ourselves. Who you were before this loss might be different from who you are now. It can be a challenging process to move through all your feelings and integrate this change into your identity and into your being.
You are not alone.
How Can You Overcome Grief
There is no one way to move through grief. When we lose something so precious to us we can feel lost. We knew how to be in the world before when we had everything but now — now we don’t exactly know who we are or how to move through the world. Everything can seem upside down.
It makes complete sense if you are not sure how to be in the world with this significant loss and change in your life. Grief is deep.
With support you can be in your grief and not be alone. With support, you can start to feel your heartache, sadness, anger and disappointment. With support, you can start to move through your emotions. With grief counselling support you can learn how to be in this different world that is forever changed from your loss.

Loss of a Loved One
When we lose someone we love, we lose a part of ourselves. Whether you have lost a spouse, parent, child or dear friend – when we are connected to another person and they are no longer here it is heartbreaking. It is confusing. It is foggy. It is painful. It is final.

Loss and Fertility/Pregnancy
The fertility and pregnancy journey is not for the faint of heart. What a journey it can be!
When we hope to have a beautiful bundle of joy and we experience a miscarriage, still birth or ongoing fertility difficulties we are faced with daily heartbreak. We dream and hope of how we might parent or connect with this little person. We wonder who they are and what their interests will be.
And then we face loss. We lose a beautiful being and our dreams of knowing them. We aren’t able to create a beautiful being and wonder if we have lost our dreams of becoming parents.
You are not alone. Please reach out and we would be honoured to be with you at this time.
