Grief Support

Grief can sit heavy on the heart. It can feel like a darkness with no light yet in sight.

Your mind may be so crowded with anger or confusion that even the smallest decision feels insurmountable.

Or you may feel disconnected from life, unsure of how to navigate the complexity of your loss.

Losses I support people through include:

~ the death of a spouse or partner
~ the death of a family member or friend
~ the death of an animal companion
~ the end of a relationship
~ ecological and climate grief
~ dreams that went unrealized
~ living with a life-limiting illness

Support at the end of life

The approach of death brings questions and needs of its own.

I offer a steady presence and compassionate guidance as you navigate this threshold, in your own way and at your own pace.

How we can work together

Grief support sessions offer a safe place to feel what you feel and to build your capacity to carry the unbearable. Together, we can explore how grief touches every part of your experience, create meaningful ways to honor your loss, and discover supports for your way through.

As unimaginable as it may seem, turning toward grief can open the way to a life that holds both your loss and renewed vitality and gratitude. However disoriented or tender you may feel, you can arrive just as you are.

This process may help you to...

• stay present with difficult feelings without being overwhelmed
• learn what your body needs when grief moves through it
• relate to yourself with more compassion and patience
• strengthen resilience and flexibility to meet life as it is now
• discover a new sense of purpose

I’m here to accompany you as you connect with the heart of your grief and most honest emotions, and as you move through the heaviness toward the new reality taking shape.

You don’t have to meet the depths of grief alone. If you’re carrying a loss, I’d be honored to hear from you.

Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature - the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter. ~ Rachel Carson, Silent Spring
