Hi. I’m Gihan (pronounced Jehanne), a life transition coach and certified grief specialist, and like many who find their way to grief work, I came through my own experiences of loss. Each of these losses left an imprint on my heart—and like many, I struggled to find meaningful support. Learning about grief gave me a deeper understanding of what it means to fully process and move through loss with self-compassion AND that it is necessary to feel our grief. As a culture, so many of us fear and reject this fundamental and necessary human experience.

The loss of a loved one is one of the most painful and life-changing experiences we can go through as humans. It can feel as though the ground beneath you has shifted, leaving you lost, grieving, and unsure of how to move forward. Even when life continues around you, it may feel like nothing makes sense anymore.

Grief can also come in the form of a relationship, a role, or a career abruptly ending, sometimes a life path that no longer fits.

You don’t have to do this alone. In this space, you’ll be supported, heard, and gently guided through the slow unfolding of what comes next.

We’ll honour what you’ve lost, and help you take meaningful steps towards a future that feels both possible and purposeful.

Life may never be the same, but in time, it can hold beauty and meaning again.

I’m a certified grief educator and coach, supporting individuals, leaders, and groups to better understand grief and learn how to live alongside it with compassion, flexibility and meaning.

My dad died in the summer of 2024 and his death was what bought me to the Certified Grief Educator programme.

My approach is grounded in psychological flexibility and contemporary grief education so that I can help people make sense of what they’re experiencing, whether after bereavement, anticipatory loss, identity change, or major life transitions  and develop the capacity to carry grief without being consumed by it.

I offer 1:1 online sessions, and a significant part of my work takes place outdoors, particularly during spring, summer, and autumn. Nature offers rhythm, perspective, and steadiness qualities that grief often responds to more readily than words alone. Through walk and talk sessions, seasonal grief walks, workshops, and reflective group spaces I create psychologically safe environments where grief can be acknowledged, understood and integrated into a meaningful life.

I don’t offer therapy or quick answers. What I offer is education, presence and a compassionate framework for living well after loss without abandoning love, identity, or what matters most.
