In 2023, I had a house fire that saved me physically and eventually emotionally.
Although I actively worked on healing my intangible and tangible losses, I still felt so lonely on the inside. I portrayed a strong and positive "get through anything " attitude on the outside aka "Academy Award Response to Loss".
My "temporarily relieving behaviors" of keeping busy were no longer sustainable. My backpack of rocks that held my losses broke. This "rock bottom" brought me to the Grief Recovery Method.
With the tangible losses of estrangement of family members, a thirteen year legal battle with divorce, bankruptcy and loss of career and the intangible losses of safety and trust in my childhood and church, the Grief Recovery Method brought me peace and possibilities of a fresher and more authentic joy filled life.
This program is long lasting even before completion of the courses. I was able to speak my truth to estranged family members and give myself permission to feel all the feels when my children and I lost our family cat, Stripy after seventeen years. I want this peace and self-compassion for you as well.
This feeling of authentic connection with others, peace with myself and harmony with life is what I hope you will receive from this program.
As a former educator of over 25 years experience who has taught in urban, suburban, rural and international settings, I never received training during those years (and while pursuing my Masters Degree in Education) on how to help my students (and their families) with ANY of the over 40 different kinds of losses (including loss of safety, loss of trust, loss of confidence). As a result, I am on a mission to educate as many professionals as possible on how to help children with any loss. I truly believe that this grief education will shift communities from shame around grief and loss to normalizing the experience of grief.
My specialization is in (but not limited to) the human resource sectors, educational organizations, survivors, immigrants and first generation Americans. I am also a proud cat mama, dog mama and cat grandma of two.

This program is for people who prefer to work one-on-one rather than in a group setting. The 7-session format utilizes the same proven materials as the group programs and can be completed in-person or online with a Grief Recovery Method Specialist specifically trained to help people move through loss with dignity and respect.
The vast majority of parents find themselves at a loss when trying to help their children deal with any grieving experience that impacts them. This 4-week program is designed to teach parents, and others who work with children, the necessary tools to help children effectively deal with their broken hearts, no matter the loss they are facing.
