Grief Support
At the CHI, our dedicated and experienced therapists are here to walk alongside you, offering a safe space to explore your feelings.
Grief is how we feel in response to experiencing loss. It is truly a multifaceted experience that can affect every aspect of our lives.
We are all susceptible to grief. It can result from experiences such as:
- Death of a loved one
- Loss of one’s health, physical function or independence
- Relationship changes
- Financial hardship
- Trauma and abuse
- Major life transitions
- Loss of dreams or expectations
There is no right or wrong way to grieve. It is a deeply personal experience and can impact us:
- Emotionally (overwhelming sadness, despair, anger, frustration)
- Physically (causing symptoms like fatigue, changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, pain)
- Cognitively (inability to think, concentrate, make decisions)
- Behaviourally (withdrawal from social activities, hobbies, daily routines)
- Spiritually (questioning beliefs, meaning, purpose in life).
We invite you to reach out and discover how our grief support services can help you navigate through difficult times.
Grief & Dying Support
Some things are hard to talk about. Unexplored grief and fear of death are often underneath the surface of fear and anxiety. Softening toward these can help us to wrestle with the meaning one makes of life’s difficult times.
Our culture is profoundly death phobic, which can make our endings of days that much more difficult. And can make grief feel impossible to survive.
Don’t be lonely when times are tough. Find compassion and deep human experience in our therapists who specialize in grief and befriending death.
