Greetings! I’m an educator, a widow, a two-time divorcee, and a child of divorce. Throughout my life, I have experienced many types of losses: tangible and intangible ones. The most emotionally devastating loss was the passing of my last husband of only seven years, which immediately left me feeling devastated, alone, and disoriented. Also, I had two previous divorces from which I felt relief but also betrayal. In my career, I found myself no longer able to be employed in the only career I had for 24 years simply because of bureaucratic decisions and no fault of my own. The most impactful loss was my parents' divorce when I was an infant which inspired the self-blaming narrative I created as a child. Subsequently, I wrestled with feelings of abandonment and rejection for most of my life which surfaced as people pleasing and perfectionism.

The Grief Recovery Method enabled me to reconcile my present by healing my past through completing the painful relationships and losses. I was able to stop focusing on what could be and what should have been, so I could see more clearly what is and allow what will be. The Grief Recovery Method provides tools I can take into the future to mitigate the effects of future losses, which I know are inevitable as long as I am breathing. I don’t have to be so anxious about how I will handle those losses without my husband to hold my hand because I have the Grief Recovery Method to help the effects of the losses not get deeply rooted.

I provide the Grief Recovery Method in the Sanford and Lake Mary, Florida and surrounding areas. Programs I offer include: One-on-One Grief Support, Group Grief Support, Helping Children with Loss, and Pet Loss Support. Please contact me to book a free consultation so that we can discuss how I can help and support you. I truly look forward to assisting you or anyone you know seeking relief from their grief and losses. Don’t delay. Reach out to me soon.
