How counselling helps
What working on it together looks likeHow counselling helps
Early on
Understand your loss
With your counsellor, you make sense of what changed and how it affects your body, mood and days. You go at your own pace and share only what you want to.
As you go
Cope with hard days
You learn tools for waves of grief, pain-related stress and worry. This may include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which looks at how thoughts shape feelings.
Over time
Move forward your way
You set small goals that fit your life now, like getting back to work or honouring someone you lost. Solution-focused therapy builds on what already helps.

You do not need to wait until things feel very hard to talk to someone. Many people reach out when grief, pain or worry keeps getting in the way of sleep, work or relationships. Others come because they want support while they adjust to a new reality. You can decide what feels right for you.
Yes, counselling can help with the feelings that come with a physical injury. An injury can bring stress, frustration, worry about money or work, and grief for the things you can no longer do the same way. Your counsellor can work alongside your medical care, not in place of it. Questions about pain or medication are best taken to your doctor or nurse practitioner.
No, there is no right way or set timeline to grieve. Some people cry often, some feel numb, and some feel fine one day and very low the next. Our counsellors use a trauma-informed approach, which means they go at your pace and respect your choices. You can share as much or as little as you like about your loss.
Yes, you can meet with a counsellor online from anywhere in BC, or in person at one of our offices in Vancouver, Burnaby or Pitt Meadows. Online sessions can help if an injury makes travel hard or if you would rather talk from home. We also offer a free 15-minute consultation by phone or video, so you can ask questions before you decide.
Please reach out for help right away, without waiting for a session. If you are in crisis or thinking about suicide, call or text 9-8-8, call 1-800-SUICIDE (1-800-784-2433), or call 911 if you are in danger. Counselling can support you alongside these services, but it is not a crisis service.
