There's No Right Way to Grieve
Grief isn't linear. Some days you function almost normally; others, the weight is crushing. You might feel numb one moment and overwhelmed the next. You might be angry, relieved, guilty, or all of these at once. All of it is valid.
In Burlington's busy, achievement-oriented culture, there's often pressure to "move on" quickly—to get back to work, back to normal, back to being okay. But grief doesn't work on a schedule, and forcing yourself through it can leave wounds unhealed.
Grief counselling offers something different: a space where your loss is honoured. Where you can feel whatever you feel without judgment. Where you can learn to carry your grief in a way that lets you still live your life.
Grief Takes Many Forms
Death of a Loved One
The loss of a parent, spouse, child, sibling, friend, or anyone significant in your life.
Anticipatory Grief
Grieving a loss before it happens—during a terminal illness or watching a parent decline.
Complicated Grief
When grief feels stuck, overwhelming, or interferes with daily life months or years later.
Pregnancy & Infant Loss
Miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant death—losses that are often minimized but deeply painful.
Relationship Loss
Divorce, estrangement, or the end of a significant relationship—grief for the living.
Other Losses
Loss of health, career, identity, dreams, pets—any loss that changes who you are.
How Grief Counselling Helps
Our approach to grief isn't about "getting over" your loss or reaching some mythical stage of acceptance. It's about learning to carry your grief in a way that still allows you to live.
We draw on research-backed approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy and narrative therapy to help you:
Process Emotions Safely
Create space to feel sadness, anger, guilt, or whatever arises—without judgment or pressure.
