Individual Grief Counselling
Everyone grieves in their own way and in their own time. Sometimes people grieve for years without seeming to find even temporary relief. Adapting to a loss can be extremely challenging and can even feel like a betrayal. This reasoning can leave you feeling stuck. I will guide you on how to reorient and restructure life after a loss and maintain a connection to loved ones and what was lost. Grief counselling isn’t a miracle cure for dealing with loss. It won’t help you forget about a deceased loved one or avoid the pain of loss. Instead, it can help you understand, accept, and manage grief to live a full life.
End-of-life Care Planning
For individuals interested in proactively planning for their end of life, including creating advance directives, discussing final wishes (away from the legal space), and ensuring a peaceful transition. I facilitate the creation of a care plan for the family, including distribution of chores, meal plans, medication administration, "watch over" shifts, final event procedures. It’s the person’s very own blueprint for dying which truly reflects their choices and wishes. The plan can be updated and changed at any time to reflect changes in circumstances, views and opinions, and to reduce fear and distress.
