Like so many people, I experienced different types of loss early in life, but was really impacted in my late twenties, when I lost a pregnancy and started a long and difficult journey through infertility and the heart breaking process of trying to conceive a child. My experience with grief continued in 2007, with the sudden loss of my mother and the breakdown of a 20 year marriage two years later, which led to divorce. I had to start my life over completely, moving back to the USA after living in England for 20 years, leaving behind my home, business, friends and beloved cat. I decided to become certified in the Grief Recovery Method, because I wanted to help people in my community who had experienced loss, particularly due to wildfires that destroyed entire towns in 2021. What I found during the certification process, was that I had a lot of pain from past grief, that I had learned to live with, but had never really healed from. Becoming educated in how the method works and applying the tools in my own life, has helped me in a tangible way to move forward, it is like a huge weight has been lifted! Now I am helping others who want to heal from their pain, both individually and in groups. I am also helping people learn how they can help children with loss. I am based in Graeagle, California, but work mostly with people online, so I can be there for grievers no matter where they are located.
