Grief can take on many forms. When you experience a loss, it can feel like the world has ended. Your heartbreak, broken dreams, and sense of self are all being shaken to their core. Unfortunately, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to processing grief. Every person’s journey is different. But I know you are not alone in your struggle—I’ve been there too!
As a licensed clinical social worker, certified grief educator, truth-teller, and bereaved. I want to support you in finding meaning after your loss. Everyone needs support during times of loss.
I currently provide individual and group support for women and the LGBTQ+ community navigating their grief journey. In addition, I hold workshops with other experts in the holistic field. Our work together involves holding a safe space to express and process your emotions as you find your purpose in this world. Our services are entirely virtual. You can do it from the comfort of your home or wherever you find a private space.
