Grief Therapy in London, Ontario

Grief can feel overwhelming while trying to continue with daily responsibilities and routines.

In London, many people balance work, family life, caregiving responsibilities, or academic pressures while quietly coping with the emotional impact of loss.

Grief therapy offers a supportive space to slow down, process what has changed, and begin adjusting to life after loss. At Tiny Therapy Collective, we provide grief therapy that is compassionate, evidence-based, and grounded in your lived experience rather than expectations about how grief should unfold.

We offer virtual grief therapy for clients across London and throughout Ontario, as well as in-person therapy at select locations, with a free 15-minute consultation to help you get started.

Understanding Grief

Grief is a natural response to loss, yet it rarely follows a predictable timeline. Emotional, physical, and relational changes often occur simultaneously.

Grief may be connected to:

The death of a loved one
Anticipatory grief related to illness or caregiving
Relationship loss or separation
Pregnancy loss or fertility challenges
Changes in health or physical ability
Career or educational transitions
Loss of identity, stability, or future expectations

Many people in London continue meeting responsibilities at work, school, or home while struggling internally. Therapy can provide space to acknowledge grief without needing to suppress or minimize it.

Common Experiences of Grief

Grief can show up in many ways, including:

Persistent sadness or emotional numbness
Feeling disconnected from others or socially withdrawn
Guilt, regret, or recurring thoughts about the past
Irritability or emotional sensitivity
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
Changes in sleep, appetite, or energy
Feeling stuck or uncertain about how to move forward

These responses are common reactions to meaningful loss.

How Grief Can Affect Daily Life in London

London’s strong healthcare, education, and family communities often encourage people to remain dependable for others even during personal hardship.

Many individuals continue caring for family members, supporting others, or maintaining professional responsibilities while their own grief remains unprocessed.

Grief may affect:

Work or academic performance
Communication within relationships
Parenting and caregiving roles
Emotional regulation and stress tolerance
Physical well-being and fatigue
Sense of confidence or direction

Grief therapy provides a space where you can focus on your own healing without pressure to move forward before you are ready.

How Grief Therapy Helps

Grief therapy is not about forgetting or moving on from loss. It focuses on helping you carry grief in a way that feels more manageable and integrated into daily life.

At Tiny Therapy Collective, grief therapy may help you:

Process emotions safely and gradually
Reduce guilt or self-blame
Understand how grief affects the nervous system
Develop coping strategies for emotional waves
Rebuild meaning and connection
Strengthen communication and support systems
Move forward while continuing to honour what was lost

Our therapists use evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches tailored to your needs.

Individual, Couples, Family, and Group Grief Therapy

Grief therapy is commonly offered through individual therapy, allowing personalized pacing and support.

Couples therapy can help partners understand differences in grieving styles and strengthen connection during loss. Family therapy supports families navigating shared grief, changing roles, or emotional strain following loss.

In some cases, group therapy may also be beneficial, offering connection with others who share similar experiences. Availability varies by location and time.

Your therapist can help determine which option feels most supportive.
