Counselling

In November 2013 when I lost my husband of 45years I was devastated and inconsolable. My daughter found Living Through Loss Counselling where I was privileged to meet Lynette Pollard-Elgert and the journey of my life began. Lynette provided me with an outlet for my grief where I was able to discuss the most intimate details of my husband and I's life in complete comfort. Lynette was the neutral and nurturing person I needed to help weave me back into the world without my beloved husband. I have been able to direct my feelings of loss in a positive manner and I have learned to cope and move forward in life but I couldn't have done it without Living Through Loss Counselling and I am forever grateful that it exists because without it and Lynette's expertise, openness and care of the human condition I wouldn't be where I am today .

April is an absolutely wonderful Clinical Counselor that I highly recommend. She is kind-hearted, professional, knowledgeable...and hands down can hold space like no one I've ever met! I'm grateful to have stumbled upon her website and her work. She truly is different and has helped me shift things I didn't know could be shifted. The body-based approach that she uses is hugely helpful. I didn't have to relive my traumas or anything like that. Instead, she helped provide a safe container for me to explore sensations that came up and to process what arose in a slow, yet powerful way. It allowed me to realize some deep insights about myself and my past that I truly believe wouldn't have happened with a more typical approach. If you've got something 'stuck' in your life, feel anxious, want to process a difficult life event, or really even just for self-care, I highly recommend April Lies!
