I deeply respect your wanting to address something in your life that keeps you from feeling happy and whole. Maybe it's a recent event or loss, or a troubled relationship, or maybe a past pain that continues to hurt. Perhaps you are feeling a lack of purpose, or a lack of connection with who you really are. As a compassionate listener and guide, I will sit with you as you explore a deeper self-understanding, reflect back to you your insights, discuss options and goals, then assist you in designing an effective path of healing and change. For those living with breast cancer, I am honored to offer my support as a fellow thriver.
Every event and shift we go through requires grieving. To be able to let go is to be able to process and move on from pain, to discover resiliency, and to commit to purpose. With a special focus on mindfulness, I greatly value using creative expression, spiritual rituals and sound therapy as profound tools for transforming the pain of loss and transitions.
As a creative and eclectic coach, I will meet your needs with kind non-judgment, and invite you to embrace your authenticity. I will offer techniques and experiences that are most productive and comfortable for you. I will always ask for your feedback - and I always hold a deep regard for the uniqueness of your life experience. I hold great hope for you!

Groups

Grief Circle

Photo of Sarah Vulgamore, Counselor, MA, MS, NCC
Hosted by
Sarah Vulgamore

Grief is the sacred work of moving through loss and painful change. When we gather together in our grief, we find freedom and build resiliency. This circle is for all kinds of grief - from the loss of a loved one or a pet, to the loss of some way life was supposed to be, to the sadness and anxiety connected with the climate crisis. Circles will include meditations, sound healing, creative expression and embodied rituals that will help us de-isolate our sorrow, and find the freedom to live forward. (Please note: this group is not for the newly bereaved.)

Soul Care Circle for Breast Cancer Thrivers

Hosted by
Sarah Vulgamore

This is a safe and supportive circle for women living with breast cancer, and is appropriate for any stage of treatment and recovery. With an emphasis on healing and thriving, each circle will include a brief sound meditation and creative journaling prompt. As a fellow breast cancer survivor, I have come to see breast cancer as a Soul Journey in a way that can add great meaning to living forward.
