Grief & Loss
Working with grieving people for over 25 years, as a funeral director and now as a therapist, I am witness to people in intense vulnerability. With empathy, understanding, and insight, I provide a therapeutic presence for individuals and families to process their thoughts and feelings in ways that are affirming and clarifying.
My approach to grief therapy encompasses helping people cope with their grief so that they can achieve their everyday living and supporting people to adapt to grief so that they can realize a life forward.

Cari is a Registered Psychotherapist, Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), and a Fellow in Thanatology: Death, Dying, Loss, and Bereavement. She specializes in grief counselling for both death and non-death losses and supports individuals and caregivers facing grief in all its forms, life-limiting illnesses, caregiving stress, and major life transitions. Sessions are offered in person in Toronto or virtually across Canada.
Grounded in a client-centred, strengths-based, and attachment-focused approach, Cari draws on Family Systems Theory, Narrative Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy (SIP) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). She recognizes the importance of spiritual wellbeing—whether it is a source of strength or an area of pain—and creates space for all parts of the human experience in the therapy room. Clients can expect a warm, down-to-earth presence, gentle encouragement, and practical tools to help navigate all forms of loss and build resilience. Cari’s work is guided by compassion, curiosity, and a belief that healing happens through connection, storytelling, and being truly heard. Alongside one-on-one psychotherapy, Cari also offers death and grief education services including community workshops, speaking engagements, and group facilitation.
