GRIEF CERTIFIED COACH
How to Find the Right Grief Certified Support
We suggest you start with a phone call. Let them know you found them through grief.com.
Ask them about their style.
Tell them briefly about you.
They may or you may ask to start with an initial meeting. In person is the best way to assess if you are a match.
Make sure you discuss fees, before you begin, so there is clarity.

Hi, I’m Rita, a professional spiritual coach, counsellor, grief educator, mindfulness guide and creator of sacred ceremonies. I have been working in the field of personal and spiritual development for over 35 years
I support and guide people across the bridge from Fear and Grief to Love 💜 In each moment we have really only two choices – the path of fear or the path of love. Simple but not always easy to make that choice especially when we are grieving .
My approach is humanistic and person centred. I offer a non-judgemental, compassionate, safe and confidential space. I endeavour to have a deep respect and understanding of your personal values, beliefs and culture. I am warm and creative . I listen deeply and bring afresh perspective to support positive growth and development in people’s lives supporting them through their grief, bereavement and loss. As David Kessler says ; ‘We need to grieve fully in order to live and love fully’.
Spiritual quite simply means, waking up. Waking up to a loving benevolent power greater than ourselves, that sustains and guides us. As a spiritual counsellor and coach I offer a space in which I guide and accompany you on your journey of self-love and self-care through this rocky terrain of grief and loss. I support you to cross the bridge from fear to love.
My ethnicity is Indian. I grew up in the UK. I have travelled extensively and lived in India and I have lived in the Caribbean for many years. I also had the privilege working with Mother Theresa and the Sisters of Light in Kolkata.

You don’t need to be alone on your grief journey. I will listen to your heartache, your stories and your challenges. I will meet you where you are, and not try to fix you. Instead I am here to support, guide and encourage you.
After my son died unexpectedly almost 10 years ago, I spent several years heart broken, overwhelmed and disoriented by daily life. I struggled to navigate all of the new challenges that come after losing a loved one. Things began to change for me when I got the right support, guidance and tools.
Because of how difficult and confusing my own personal experience was with navigating grief and finding support, I have made it my life’s work to help encourage, support and guide others who’ve experienced loss.
You don’t need to be alone on your grief journey! You do not have to figure this out on your own. Contact me to book a free 30 minute Discovery Call to find out how I can help.

I offer the following services: grief coaching, relationship and intimacy coaching, trauma resolution, embodiment coaching and post-traumatic growth. I work with clients 1-on-1 all over the world, including my local area. I hold all sessions online so clients can participate in sessions from the safety, privacy and familiarity of home.
Although other coaches or therapists might have certifications in grief, I have personal experience. In 2020, I lost my husband of over thirty years and my beloved youngest son, half of my little four-person family, just six short months apart. The loss of my husband was one thing; the loss of my child was devastating on every single level of my being. I have walked all the way through this loss to the other side and know the terrain of grief like the back of my hand. I know the pitfalls of grief; I know how easy and natural it is to get stuck or lost. Additionally, I have lived through many other losses, eleven in all: including death of a parent by suicide, an uncle by suicide, sudden death, death caused by refusal of medical treatment and others. I am the author of 49 Tributes to My Beloved Son: A Mothers Journey Through Loss to Love & Communion.
As a coach, I offer my compassion, presence and capacity to feel the more challenging feelings of grief to help clients move through loss while connecting with their hearts, deepening embodiment, restoring emotional resilience and fluidity and a sense of vibrancy and aliveness.
