"It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness." -Eleanor Roosevelt
Pain, isolation, and loneliness. Everyone of us has experienced the negative effects of one or all of these feelings at one point or another in our lives. Often times they are attributed to a loss of some kind, many we may have never considered to be a loss or something we would be grieving over. I, like everyone else, have experienced losses of many kinds throughout my life, most of which were actually not related to a physical death. I have also felt the crippling effects of them when undealt with for almost 20 years. It never occurred to me that unresolved grief could manifest in such subtle, unexpected ways or that it would have such a tremendous impact on every other area of my life. What I discovered in my own journey through the Grief Recovery Method program was the priceless value of this unique process and that there really is life & hope beyond loss.
Loss is undeniably eminent for all of us at some point, in one way or another. My goal is to come alongside individuals who may be struggling in the darkness of loss and assist them in lighting a candle of hope. I am serving in the Rapid City and Pine Ridge Reservation area and would love to come alongside women in these communities as they work through their own journeys to discover the rest of their unique stories.
