Are you facing grief and loss due to the death of a loved one, a divorce, separation, empty nest, or another life-altering transition? Often, grievers worry they are handling it incorrectly or wonder if their experience is normal. Many of us are unprepared for the pain that grief brings and lack the knowledge needed to navigate its wild nature. Perhaps your transition is causing a ruptured sense of self, loneliness, and uncertainty. As Carl Jung said, 'Embrace your grief, for there your soul will grow.'

From a young age, I was always interested in the why of things. Whenever I was told that, "things could be worse", I was never satisfied and always remember thinking that there must be a better or different way of handling things. In my life, I have encountered many challenging times and tried to handle things the best I could. As a result, I decided to do my own work and in turn was inspired to help others. Today, I am fortunate enough to do the work I do and am passionate about helping others to make changes in their lives.
