Loss of a partner or spouse

We are all aware that we can be touched by death in some way throughout our lifetime.  No matter if the person in your life was with you for a short time or a long time it can be devastating not having them there. The gaping hole that remains after the loss of a partner can be extremely profound. As you embark on this journey, you are bound to experience difficulties rebuilding a new life without your loved one. This could include taking care of your children (if you have any), managing finances, taking care of your personal health, and meeting deliverables at work. Some people may even struggle with eating and personal hygiene. Our goal is to help you navigate the struggles that come with the loss of a partner and do so by making sure that emphasis is made on personal care. We also work with you on developing an understanding of the grieving cycle and ensuring you are mourning in a way that is healthy for your recovery.

 

Some of the discussions may include:

 

·      What is normal and what’s considered a new normal

·      How to manage the onslaught of grief

·      Why did this happen

·      Why do I feel empty

·      How do I manage anniversaries

·      Reasons for grief

·      The importance of goodbye

 

The loss of our spouse can change our lives. Nothing may ever be the same and whatever was once familiar may start to become unfamiliar. Our counselling program was developed to help you relearn new ways of being and manage with the tides of change. We also explore how to rebuild your foundation, acknowledge the loss, and work on the impact of your grief. Our counselling program also focuses on processing and sitting with the feeling. The space we offer invites you to take a few moments in your busy day to sit and reflect on what is lost. The purpose of our work with clients is to meet the grief with peace and do so in a space that allows you to explore feelings and thoughts. The work we do helps you to reduce the overwhelming feelings and allows them to regain control during a time of need.
