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.

When I lost my son, Joel, in 2017 to complications due to heroin/meth addiction, I entered a time of deep depression and utter hopelessness. When others tried to offer well-meaning support, they often tried to connect me with “their friend who lost their son in a car accident” or “someone whose child died after a tragic bout with cancer.”
It’s not the same.
There is a stigma associated with deaths of this kind and the judgment that says, “they did this to themselves” or a tendency to blame those who loved them. Those of us who have experienced this kind of loss understand there is no one-size-fits-all to working through grief.
Personalized Grief Support – Scheduled by you, on your timeline.
Some people prefer weekly “touchpoint” sessions, while for others, this is too much, too soon. You schedule your appointment via my personalized calendar. We will meet either by Zoom or, as many prefer, simply by phone.

It is an honor and privilege to be invited to walk along side my clients for this phase of their grief loss journey. I have been a grief loss practitioner for over 20 years.
I work with the newly bereaved as well as those who are further along on their journey where the rumblings of change can be overwhelming.
No matter where you are on your journey, navigating change is the work that grief drops at your door.
I offer small groups, and individual sessions depending on what is desired and recommended. I have a list of workshops on my website and Link Tree that are very informative and helpful. I also offer a free 1/2 Discovery Call where we can explore working together.

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.
