Understanding Grief
Grief is a deeply personal experience, and there’s no right way to feel it. Whether you’re mourning a recent loss or coping with a long-standing absence, grief can bring waves of sadness, guilt, confusion, anger—or numbness. It can affect your relationships, identity, and even your sense of purpose.
How Existential Therapy Helps
In existential therapy, we honour the complexity of grief. It is not something to be “fixed” or rushed through. Instead, we explore how this loss has affected your world and your understanding of life and self. Together, we make space for your feelings, however they show up, and gently explore how to live alongside them.
Grief can also prompt deeper questions—about meaning, mortality, and how to live in a changed world. These questions are welcome in our work together.
