Thank you for being here and welcome. I have worked in the Social Work field, primarily in nursing homes and elder service organizations for over 30 years. In the last 6 years I have been working in Hospice care, both in social work and bereavement. As a Bereavement Coordinator I was facilitating groups and meeting with people who had experienced a wide variety of loss. I was constantly looking for something that would help grievers in their healing. Nothing felt like it was helping. Then I stumbled upon the Grief Recovery method and I knew immediately that this was exactly what I was looking for. I had not expected so much personal growth in addition to finding a way to help people heal from the pain associated with their losses.
I provide one-on-one in person and group services in the Berkshires and Franklin County Massachusetts. I have a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and a Master's in Gerontology/Management of Aging Services. Through Hospice, I provide support to patients and families at end of life and bereavement support following their losses.
