Finding a Path Through the Weight of Loss

How Grief Affects Your Brain And What To Do About It

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need professional grief counselling?

While grief is a natural response to loss, professional support becomes essential if you feel "stuck" in your mourning, find it difficult to perform daily tasks, or feel a persistent sense of hopelessness. Our Edmonton grief therapists provide tools to help you manage the intensity of these feelings.

Is there a specific timeline for the grieving process?

No. Every individual processes loss differently. Some people feel better within months, while for others, the journey takes years. We focus on your unique needs rather than a set schedule, ensuring you feel supported for as long as necessary.

Can you help with non-death related losses?

Absolutely. Grief can stem from many sources, including divorce, job loss, a medical diagnosis, or the loss of a pet. We treat all forms of loss with the same level of respect and clinical expertise.

What can I expect in a typical grief counselling session?

Sessions often involve exploring the story of your loss, identifying triggers that worsen your grief, and developing healthy coping mechanisms. Our goal is to help you integrate the loss into your life story so it no longer feels like an anchor holding you back.
