Therapy for Grief & Loss
Grief is a reflection of how deeply you love, and there's no right or wrong way to grieve. It can be complicated by other feelings such as guilt, anger, or feeling responsible for things said or things left unsaid. Many of these feelings are normal and will fade over time, but sometimes, the healing process can become stuck. This is where therapy can be helpful.
Book NowAbout this therapy
Grief can be incredibly complicated, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. No matter what emotions it brings up for you (from sadness to anger and even relief), therapy can offer a safe, structured space to work through these feelings. Remember: you’re not betraying the memory of your loved one by finding new ways to continue living and loving.
Therapy for grief and loss is centred around helping you acknowledge, process and reframe the meaning of the loss. With the support of our therapists, you’ll be able to explore what the loss means to you on a personal level and integrate that into your life narrative.
From developing healthy coping skills to rebuilding routines in your life, we’re here to help you find meaningful ways to honour the memory of the loved one and keep their legacy alive, whether through rituals, memorials, or personal acts of remembrance.
Our approach
No matter what grief looks or feels like for you, our therapists are here to help you:
- Find new ways to process the complex emotions and thoughts about the loss of your loved one
- Explore meaning and making sense of loss
- Make practical adjustments to your life as you adjust to these changes
- Learn how to accept what cannot be changed and build the courage to change the things that can.
- Foster a greater sense of mindfulness
- Build support in your life to help you move past the grief in helpful ways

- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

How we’ll monitor your progress
It’s important to us that you feel like you are moving forward in therapy and healing from your psychological struggles. This is why we make sure that we have conversations about whether the therapy is working for you or not. This process of getting your feedback can help your therapist adjust their approach to meet your needs better.
To keep you moving forward, we’ll use a range of methods to track your progress, such as:
- Tracking your mood using helpful measures and discussing progress with you
- Helping you understand the meaning of questionnaires used during the therapy process
- Ensuring that therapy sessions are supporting you and putting you on a path that serves you
