Bereavement Support & Grief Coaching
The journey through grief is a deeply personal and transformative experience. As an ordained interfaith minister, end-of-life doula, and certified professional coach, I am dedicated to providing compassionate support to individuals and families navigating the complex emotions of grief and loss.
Understanding Bereavement and Grief
Bereavement, the period of mourning and adjustment following a loss, and grief, the emotional response to that loss, are natural aspects of the human experience. Each person’s journey through grief is unique and may encompass various forms of loss, including the death of a loved one, pregnancy loss, pet loss, or other life transitions that evoke feelings of mourning and sadness.
Bereavement Support
Bereavement support within the doula model of care focuses on providing compassionate emotional, spiritual and practical support to individuals and families as they navigate the grieving process. This form of support acknowledges the individual’s experience of loss and offers a safe space for expression and healing.
Grief Coaching
Grief coaching is a specialized form of support that takes a proactive and goal-oriented approach to navigating grief. Unlike traditional counseling or therapy, which may focus on exploring past traumas or unresolved emotions, grief coaching emphasizes creating a positive vision for the future. Grief coaches assist individuals in setting specific objectives related to their grief journey and provide guidance, encouragement, and practical strategies to help them move forward with resilience and purpose.
Compassionate Support for Every Step of Your Journey
My bereavement support and grief coaching services are tailored to meet you where you are on your journey of healing. From the immediate aftermath of loss to the long-term process of grief, I offer compassionate listening, emotional support, and practical guidance to help you navigate the complexities of grief with grace and resilience.
