Hello and Thank You for viewing my profile! In 2023 I received my Grief Educator Certification from Grief expert David Kessler. My goal as a grief educator is to offer the emotional support, resources, and guidance to those in search of encouragement, hope, and healing through the bereavement process. I offer peer to peer support via zoom or phone, while providing a safe place to both guide and share. Specializing in the death of a child, death by gun violence, homicide, loss of pet, siblings, mother, father, spouse, friend. It is my honor to be able to witness your grief, helping you integrate this loss into your life and assist you to live and love fully. Grieving is too profound to do alone. With understanding and compassion, I walk beside you down the road towards mending your broken heart. Please feel free to call me with any questions or if you’d like to setup a free consultation to learn about my services. (602) 500-9351

Companionship for your Grief Journey.
Grief is lonely. You haven’t lost someone you love, it is you who are feeling lost.
I know. I have been there.
I offer presence, the ability to witness your pain and hold the space for something bigger.
A lifetime of study has filled my bag with emotional and spiritual tools to ease the journey.
It would be my honor to walk with you.

I am a Certified Grief Educator, Grief Coach, and Life and Wellness Coach dedicated to walking alongside others as they navigate loss and life’s many transitions. My approach is rooted in compassion, mindfulness, and presence—honoring grief as a sacred expression of love rather than something to be fixed or overcome.
Through education, coaching, and lived experience, I support individuals in exploring the emotional, mental, and spiritual layers of grief with gentleness and respect for their unique journey. My goal is to create calm, nurturing spaces where healing can unfold naturally and meaning can be rediscovered in the midst of change.
