As a certified Grief Educator by world-renowned renowned grief expert and my mentor David Kessler, I specialize in, helping individuals navigate the difficult process of grieving after a loss. As someone who has experienced loss myself, I understand firsthand how overwhelming and confusing it can feel. That’s why I am passionate about providing a safe and supportive space for my clients to work through their emotions, develop coping strategies, and find a path forward.

My approach is grounded in empathy, compassion, and non-judgment. I believe that everyone’s grief journey is unique and that there is no “right” way to grieve. My goal is to meet my clients where they are and support them in finding the tools and resources that work best for them.

Whether you are struggling with the loss of a loved one, a significant life change, or any other type of grief, I am here to offer guidance with my unique program “Grief and its 6 needs” and community to Heal Together(HTC) as you navigate this difficult terrain. I am on a mission to help everyone grieving find hope, healing, and a sense of peace in the midst of their loss.

About Me

I am a Certified Grief Educator, trained directly by David Kessler (grief.com, 2021).
My work centers on supporting people who have lost someone dear – a partner, parent, child, sibling, or close friend.

I offer a warm, grounded space where grief can be spoken, honored, and gently tended to, without pressure to fix or move on.

With over a decade of experience as a mindfulness teacher, and a background as a birth doula, I bring compassionate presence, careful listening, and steady guidance.

Living in the wild nature of southwest Portugal has deeply shaped my understanding of grief, cycles of loss, and renewal and forms the heart of my work today.

How I Support You

1:1 Grief Companionship (Online & In Person)

A safe, attentive space to share your story and be met with full presence.
I support people through the emotional, relational, and practical layers of grieving, using mindful presence, reflection, gentle practices, ritual, and grief education.

Pathways through Grief – Retreat (Portugal)

A 6-day nature-based grief retreat, created specifically for people who have lost someone dear.

Held in southwest Portugal, with retreats in June and November 2026, this intimate experience offers time, space, and care to honour our loss and open to renewal. We tend to grief with mindful presence, gentle practices, and nature-based rituals, allowing what we carry to be acknowledged and expressed. We tend to ourselves with Yin Yoga, Qi Gong, sound journeys, nourishing meals and a rejuvenating massage. To give ourselves the well deserved rest and nourishment we need so that we can return home changed, holding ourselves and our grief in a different way.

Elements include:

• mindfulness practice
• guided griefwork
• gentle movement, e.g. Yin Yoga & Qi Gong
• grief rituals & nature-based ceremonies
• sharing circles
• sound journeys
• massages
• restorative rest & reflection

Pregnancy, Birth & Loss Doula Support

Compassionate care around pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and pregnancy loss.

My Approach

• Presence over fixing

• Warm, calm, attentive guidance

• Mindfulness-based and deeply human

• Trauma-aware

• Rooted in nature, ritual, and meaningful reflection

People often describe my presence as grounding, soft, steady, and deeply supportive.

How I Help:

I provide 1-on-1 support for individuals who are struggling to move forward with their grief and can benefit from a supportive presence who has an intimate experience with loss. Whether you’ve lost someone recently or have been carrying a loss for years, I offer a space where you don’t have to explain yourself, minimize your pain, or bear the weight of expectations.

I always offer a free 30. min discovery call which you can book here: Free Discovery Call
Regardless of whether you decide to work with me, during our call I  will provide you a space to share your story, honest support, and helpful resources.

Reasons that we may be a good fit to work together:

•  You are struggling to find your footing and move forward with loss
•  There is not anyone with whom you can be honest with your grief
•  Grief is affecting multiple areas of your life, disrupting your health and wellbeing
•  You are curious about developing a mindfulness practice to support your grief
•  Are looking for practical ways to engage with the waves of grief when they show up

Types of loss I help with:

While I have worked with all types of loss I have particular experience working with the loss of parents, grandparents, siblings, Aunt/Uncle, adult children, and pets. If I feel like your unique situation would be a better fit with someone else I will offer referrals during the free discovery call.

About Me:

Since the death of my father at age 6, grief has been a quiet companion my whole life; shaping how I developed as a person, how I connected with others, and eventually, how I found my way to this work.

My family had no education or understanding of grief and we suffered greatly as a result. My mother, sister and I would all stumble onward, grieving the same loss but each struggling in our own ways to move forward with the unseen force of loss impacting different aspects of our lives.

Challenges in my teens and early 20’s led me to discover mindfulness and meditation; practices that would change the way I relate to life, heal wounds I was unaware of, and reacquaint me with my grief in an entirely new way. It has been through my mindfulness practice, the support of compassionate teachers and peers, and a desire to help other children and families struggling like we did, that I created Grief Support.

I’ve spent nearly a decade as a health coach, have facilitated grief support groups for over 5 years, helped lead grief education trainings and volunteer in hospice care. I bring all of that, and all of my own lived experience, into this work. I know what it is like to carry loss for a long time, and my hope is that my words, my work, and Grief Support remind you that you don’t have to carry yours alone.

My Philosophy: Embracing Grief With Mindfulness:

Mindfulness has the power to alleviate and transform the suffering we feel after experiencing loss.

To be deeply present and compassionately attentive to the moment right in front of us is the essence of mindfulness.

In this way, bringing mindfulness to our grief, is another way of being fully present with our person. This compassionate awareness helps soften our suffering, strengthen our relationship to our loved ones, and lead us to a new understanding of living.

I created grief support because mindfulness of our grief has the power to transform not only our lives as bereaved, but as a society and world that still has not reconciled its dysfunctional relationship with death, loss and love.
