Anne Hampel, PSW

Bonjour, my name is Anne.       We all have a story, and everyone's story does matter! My adventures, stories and curiosities all began as a farmer's daughter.A part of my life losses included accidents and deaths of all sorts (farm accident in my mid-teens; two different family sudden and tragic deaths - 5 months apart; to mention a few.Along with the loss of emotions through numbness, loss of a part of myself, and a sense of lost time through isolation ... Then one more loss occurred, and it dropped me to my knees! This one sent me on a research journey, leading me to holistic practices, propelled by curiosity to my inner journey toward physical, mental and spiritual healing. A practice of Deep Breathing led me to Stop... Breathe... Listen. It enabled me too just "be".Grief can show up in many ways - We are all unique within our experiences...In addition to my work as a Personal Support Worker and complementary therapy practices, my exploration of emotional language and out-of-body experience, guided me to become certified in Thanatology (also known as grief or compassionate counselling) and Grief Recovery Method.The Grief Recovery Method is an Action Program for moving beyond any type of Losses... for examples: intangible; complex; sudden; anticipatory; abbreviated to name a few.Step-by-Step with the support of this psycho-education action program, we can guide and support your inner journey, alongside compassion; empathy; active listening; and providing a safe environment, toward finding your way back from undelivered emotional communication, and with discovering your new you within your loss... Allowing your heart-to-beat again.
