"Hello, I'm Mary, and I live in the beautiful city of Edmonds in Washington state with my husband and our wonderful rescues, Woody the chihuahua and Linus and Liam, our two rescue cats.

I discovered the Grief Recovery Method while researching an essay I wrote about the death of my friend and colleague from pancreatic cancer; this happened during a horrendous time in my life. I'd lost my friend, my parents, and my job and felt adrift, looking for my true purpose and something to help me move forward from the grief and losses accumulated over my life. I landed on the Grief Recovery Method website researching grief in the workplace, and what I discovered completely amazed me. "Is this the answer?" I wondered.

It was. I had found my purpose and my healing. Through extensive prayer and discernment, I chose to become a Grief Recovery Method Specialist. Going through the program as a griever was unlike anything I'd ever experienced, and through that, I joined a team of wonderful, caring people who want to help others achieve the joy and happiness they're missing in their lives.

I currently provide services in the Edmonds, Lynnwood, Shoreline, and surrounding areas on a one-on-one in-person basis and also offer online services for those outside of my immediate area. My focus encompasses all areas of grief, with special interest in pet loss, the loss of relationships of all kinds (whether death, divorce, estrangements, or any other relationship loss), and also those grieving the loss of a child or the inability to have children, whatever the circumstance. I'll walk with you and support you as you work through your grief and loss, heading towards a new era of peace.

Please contact me if you're interested in working together in person or online; I look forward to hearing from you!
