It lingers in the shadows, often finding expression through anxiety, depression, addiction, disconnection, or distress in the body. What remains unnamed continues to ask for our attention.
This work is an invitation to bring what has been hidden into the light.
To name it.
To tend it.
And to discover that you do not have to carry it alone.
Every grief journey begins with a simple conversation.
A complimentary 20-minute call gives us a chance to connect, explore what brings you here, and discern what kind of support feels most aligned for you at this moment.
Only a place to begin.
In private time together, we create space for your grief to be explored gently and compassionately, at a pace that feels right for you.
This is a place where your losses can be named, your story can be heard, and your sorrow can be met without judgment or expectation.
Grief often asks to be witnessed one heart at a time.
For some, individual support becomes the primary container for their grief tending. For others, it creates the safety and foundation needed to eventually enter a larger container, the community we may long for..
There is no prescribed path.
We simply begin where you are.
Individual sessions are $200 per 50-minute session.
I am a private-pay practitioner and do not bill insurance. You may be able to use your HSA funds for some grief support services.
Once we have spent time working individually, you may feel called to join the Shared Humanity Circle, an online or in person community where grief steps out of isolation and into connection.
Here, you are invited to bring your whole self.
You come as you are.
And you are witnessed.
Sometimes the deepest healing begins simply by sitting in the company of others who understand.
Together we create space for what words alone cannot reach. We sit with one another in the shared humanity of sorrow, discovering that what once felt isolating becomes more bearable when held in community.
Often, people discover that beneath grief lies something unexpected: connection, belonging, gratitude, and a deeper capacity for love.
The Shared Humanity Circle gathers in small groups throughout the year. When the timing feels right, I will let you know when a new circle is forming.
Together, we gather as courageous and tender-hearted souls willing to turn toward what hurts rather than away from it.
Through ritual, reflection, and shared witness, we remember something our culture has largely forgotten:
Grief was never meant to be carried alone.
A grief ritual invites us into vulnerability, trust, and surrender. As we listen to one another’s stories, we often find language for what has long remained unspeakable. We discover that our grief is uniquely our own, yet deeply connected to the shared human experience.
In this space, grief is not something to be fixed or overcome.
It is something to be honored. Witnessed. Tended.
Retreats are intentionally small, allowing for depth, safety, and meaningful connection.
I expected to feel heavy and burdened. I didn’t. I actually felt lighter and deeply connected to myself and others.

There was such power in doing this work in the community… so much commonality in our individual grieving experiences.

I have never felt so held before. I learned about grief and how to be with it and not feel overwhelmed or terrified.
