I do grief coaching with clients who have experienced loss. I have a special place in my heart for those who have suffered losses, because I know firsthand what it’s like to lose a loved one, having lost my precious 5-year-old daughter (Jackie) to an inoperable brain tumor. I know how extremely helpful a grief coach can be.
If you are struggling with grief, please contact me – I would like you help begin the process of healing! I offer grief coaching and counseling for individuals and in a group, either in person or via Zoom or FaceTime. I also am a Certified Celebrant and perform Celebration of Life Services. You don’t have to do this alone.

Held was created with the intention of holding space for end-of-life experiences, to bring light into the mystery of death, and provide a safe place to confront fears which can lead to living a more connected and meaningful life.
Death changes us. It creates a “before” and “after” in our own life stories. I welcome clients who are open to allowing the experience of grief to reshape, transform and create a better “after” life but need help with the “how.”
In addition to certification as a Grief Educator, I have also received training and certification as Life Coach, Communication and Leadership Coach, NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapist which gives me additional skills, tools and techniques to guide clients in healing through grief and fully embracing life after loss.

Hello. I’m Jen Ripa and I am a Grief Educator, Life Coach, Expressive Arts Coach, Yoga and Meditation Teacher, and Artist supporting people to harness the power of creative expression to move forward in the midst of grief. My greatest strength as a grief guide lies in supporting people to access hope and envision a life that has meaning, joy, and purpose. I often lean into my training as a Health Coach and Yoga Teacher to help people care for their physical body and reconnect with their inner fire in their grief recovery journey. This facilitates people to connect with a greater sense of aliveness, purpose, and hope.
