Finding Healing Through Grief Counselling in Kelowna

Understanding Grief

Grief is a natural response to loss, but it often feels overwhelming and isolating. Whether you’re grieving the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or a major life change, the pain can show up emotionally, mentally, and even physically.

While everyone experiences grief differently, common feelings include:

  • Intense sadness or emptiness
  • Anger, guilt, or regret
  • Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
  • Withdrawal from friends and family
  • A sense that life will never feel “normal” again

You don’t have to go through this alone. Grief counselling provides a safe space to process your emotions and begin moving toward healing.

How Grief Counselling Helps

At Orchard Valley Counselling Services, we support clients in Kelowna and West Kelowna with compassionate, evidence-based grief therapy. Counselling can help you:

  • Process emotions in a safe, supportive environment.
  • Understand the stages of grief and how they may show up in your life.
  • Learn coping tools to manage waves of sadness, anger, or guilt.
  • Reconnect with life while honouring your loss.
  • Find meaning and resilience as you move forward.

Grief counselling isn’t about “getting over it.” It’s about learning to carry your loss while rebuilding your life with compassion and support.
