A Grief & Mourning Guide companions another through a forest they themselves are familiar with.

Grief is the lump in our throats, the sleepless nights, the lack of appetite. It is what happens within our bodies in reaction to sorrow. Mourning is what we outwardly do with that. It’s the endowment we set up in a loved ones name, the tree we plant on a special anniversary, the tears we shed without shame.

I am a Certified Grief Educator and Guide. I serve those who wish to navigate the sometimes dense forest of grief. Those who are ready to discover how to live forward, with the complexities of loss.

To rest now and then, in the crack of the wound is to know it’s depth…to remember the love that is the counterbalance of the sorrow. In this way you honor the person who has died, and given yourself permission to authentically feel.

‘Grief is work. Avoiding grief is even more work.’  -David Kessler
