My mission, as bereaved parent, is to support you in navigating the uniqueness of your broken heart with compassionate light, growing with and through your own grief.

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.

I am a Certified Life and Grief Coach/Educator and owner of https://ToughGrief.com

From a teaching background, I trained and worked as a Professional Counsellor for several years before pivoting to become a Master Cerfied Life Coach a number of years ago. But it was the tragic and unexpected loss of my dearly loved husband in late 2016, that changed my world abruptly.

Out of my pain and suffering emerged the desire and the passion to create a safe space for people to find refuge and solace in their grieving. It completely changed the direction and focus of my life moving forward.

I do what I do now to honour my loss and my loved one.

People often ask me why I am so passionate about working with those going though grief and loss. I always have a simple answer for them.

It is because I have been where they are and I know the intense and crippling pain that consumes the grief stricken. I’ve experienced the shipwreck of loss and I understand how paralysing it can be, My heart has been shattered and the agony of grief has felt like it could swallow me whole at times.

However I also believe that things can improve and hope and purpose can be restored. Loss and grief are unavoidable, but we can choose how we live and to make the most of each day.

I offer my online and in person coaching services with a willing hert and a desire to help. It will be my honor and privilege to help you reassemble your life and regain hope for the future. Allow yourself permission to heal your pain:)

You can schedule a time for us to chat here on zoom (it’s free). We can determine how I can help and support you in your loss. Our coaching will be online so you can be comfortable in your own home.

I love you to join me at my facebook group  where you will find support and comfort from others who are also on their own grief journey. We would love to have you join us❤️

When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure:)
