Bereavement Counselling

I offer one-on-one and group bereavement counselling to individuals 25 years and older who have experienced loss. The one-on-one sessions are offered in person, via zoom or by phone. Through years of working with the bereaved and experiencing my own losses, I understand the confusion and unique challenges that come with losing a loved one.

During our confidential sessions, I will provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to share your experiences and explore the challenges you face when friends and family might not understand your grief. My goal is to help you:

• Understand and manage the symptoms of grief
• Explore strategies and identify coping skills for daily life, holidays, and anniversaries.
• Move from just surviving to thriving
• Honoring your loved one’s life in a healthy and positive way.

Grief is not intended to be cured, but with professional support, you can navigate your loss and flourish again. My fee is $124.00 + hst. I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Service Workers.  My registration # is 837174 for insurance purposes.

Personal Growth Therapy

I offer one-on-one personal growth therapy/coaching in person, via zoom or by phone. If you feel stuck or overwhelmed by a major life transition, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I help individuals turn pivotal moments into catalysts for growth by providing the tools needed to move forward with resilience and purpose. For all of us, there is often a pivotal moment where we have a choice to grow or to remain stuck. Whether it is a death, a divorce, job loss, breakdown of a relationship, or a change in family dynamics there is always growth and a way to create the circumstances needed to move forward.
 
My practice is built on the belief that meaningful change comes through persistence, not perfection. By combining evidence-based therapeutic training (IPT) with professional life coaching, I offer a collaborative space where you can resolve relationship conflicts and build the lasting resilience you deserve."

Persistence is a skill you can learn. If you're ready to trade perfection for progress and find the tools for your next chapter, let’s connect. Schedule a consultation today to see how we can turn your journey into your greatest strength.

Workshops & Facilitation

I have facilitated many Bereavement Groups throughout my years working in grief and bereavement. As the Palliative Care Coordinator for Hospice Quinte, I facilitated grief support groups for children, youth, and adults coping with loss.
As a dedicated champion for mental health, I partnered with The Enrichment Centre for Mental Health as a Co-Facilitator for several grief groups that supported families who have suffered a loss by suicide. I have also worked with Addictions and Mental Health HPE and the Belleville and Quinte West Community Health Centre to facilitate bereavement groups for their clients who are grieving the loss of a loved one.

I also design and facilitate Personal Growth sessions tailored for various groups, including workplaces, women's groups, or other specific community cohorts. These sessions focus on enhancing self-awareness, improving communication skills, building resilience, and navigating transitions to foster a supportive and empowering environment.
