Grief doesn’t only affect your emotions - it affects your body, too.
After a loss, the nervous system can shift into survival mode. This may show up as changes in breathing, heart rate, energy, digestion, or physical sensation.
You’re adjusting to something painful. That adjustment takes time.
Be gentle with your body as it moves through this. 🤍

Bullying can leave wounds we don’t always see.
It can shape how someone feels in their body, how they see themselves, and whether they feel like they belong. What looks like anger or withdrawal is often a nervous system trying to stay safe.
On Pink Shirt Day, we shift the question:
Not “What is wrong with you?”
But “What happened to you?”
Kindness is powerful.
May we create spaces where people feel safe, seen, and supported. 💗

Somatic therapy gently brings the body into this process, recognizing that our experiences live in our nervous system, not just our thoughts.

When you live with trauma, recalling your pain can feel excruciating. Eye movement desensitization can help restructure those painful feelings and support you on your path to healing.

Eye movement desensitization therapy (EMDR) is an innovative therapy technique that’s been proven to be effective in reducing the pain associated with traumatic memories. Through a series of guided eye movements and recallings, EMDR helps restructure your memory so that recalling a traumatic event doesn’t feel like reliving it. With EMDR, your pain doesn’t chain you down - rather, you’re able to find your inner resilience and begin to truly heal. ❤️

If EMDR sounds right for you, then we’re here to guide you along that journey. To book an online or in-person appointment with us, call 780-288-8011 or visit healmyheart.ca.

Meet Michelle Richards-Thompson, a certified counsellor here at the Grief and Trauma Healing Centre. ✨

Michelle offers empowering guidance to clients of all ages, but within this, she specializes in supporting children and teenagers in a way that makes them feel understood in their unique struggles. Michelle achieves this by sincerely considering each adolescent's individual concerns, and then applying techniques suited to both their needs and stage of development. As a result, Michelle curates an environment that is both nonjudgmental and nurturing, but also accommodating and considerate of how adolescents process their pain.

Some of Michelle's preferred therapy techniques include play-therapy, art-therapy, and EMDR. She is also familiar with treating trauma, grief, loss, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and more.

To book an appointment with Michelle, visit our website at healmyheart.ca or call us at 780-288-8011.

Your Journey to Healing

We are a team of kind, genuine, and compassionate women who specialize in Grief Recovery® and share a deep passion for helping people heal from significant loss of any kind. There are over 40 life events that can create the feelings of grief including, death, divorce, romantic break-up, pet loss, loss of trust, loss of pregnancy, loss of health, loss of childhood, and unmet hopes, dreams, and expectations. Having experienced painful losses of our own, we feel a deep empathy for the mass of emotions and sense of fear and isolation that people often experience following a loss. Through our own healing, we developed an overwhelming desire to help others move beyond the pain caused by loss.

It is our mission to facilitate healing and recovery for as many people as we can reach, utilizing a powerful method that has transformed our lives and millions of lives across the world. We empower our clients to courageously take new action to complete the pain, isolation, and loneliness caused by loss and to heal from the limiting effects of fear, tentativeness, and worry. Furthermore, we equip our clients with lifelong tools to reclaim their sense of well-being, to make new choices in the present, and to live a life of happiness, purpose, and meaning.

To truly heal our hearts and experience a transformation in the quality of our lives, it is essential that we take new action to complete what is emotionally unfinished in the past in order to move forward. We utilize a heart-centered, action-oriented program, the Grief Recovery Method®, to help our clients complete relationships that have ended or changed due to death, divorce, estrangement, or any other circumstance. We offer this program in individual, group, and workshop formats to suit our clients' unique needs. Additionally, we utilize other highly-structured methodologies to facilitate healing from painful and traumatic memories associated to loss including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotional Freedom Techniques, and IATP Narrative Exposure Therapy.
