Doretta Tarangioli, R.N. M.S.

Hi, my name is Doretta Kearns Tarangioli. I am married for 38years, and have raised 3 children.  I grew up on a dairy farm in Sandy Hook Ct. Presently I reside in Westchester County N.Y.  In 2017 I was looking for someone to help me after the loss of my mother, best friend, father, childhood home, and the trauma to my home/farm town from the Sandy Hook school shooting.  It was a cumulative loss over a six year period, on top of a life time of grief regarding my daughter who has a severe learning disability.    In my search for help I found a grief recovery specialist in my area on psychology today.  I completed the  book and all the sessions.   I loved the book,, the philosophy, the exercises, and the action oriented program.  I have been a nurse for the past 42years and have a masters degree in counseling since 1988.  Having belief in this program, having helped myself, and knowing I can help others I became a grief recovery specialist.  It also fits well with my other credentials and life goals.   My goal is to help as many people as I can with any and all types of loss,  including grieving  parents of LD children, and people experiencing  loss related to their health.
