All About Me

As a nurse, I have discovered that, especially in healthcare, grieving “too much” or for “too long” is not an acceptable response to any loss. That showing our feelings is seen as a sign of weakness. Instead, we should “move on”, yet we are not ever really told how or shown how to do that.


I have learned from both personal and professional experience that grief is never linear, whether we are experiencing personal losses, professional losses, financial losses, or a loss of freedom, independence, mobility, safety, security, peace of mind... it doesn't matter.


At some point in the very deep sea of grappling with loss, we all experience that profound sense of feeling alone.

Our sessions together were such a valuable time for me to reflect, review, and look at changes I needed to make. First and foremost, I have learned that is ever so much more important to take care of myself so that I can truly be the best I can be both for myself and for others. I have learned that being able to rest and reflect gives me more energy and allows me to respond to issues and conflicts in more positive, intelligent and thoughtful ways, rather than just being reactionary, as that just usually ends up negatively impacting me physically, spiritually and emotionally. I am calmer, more focused, more peaceful and not feeling guilty, like I would have before, about taking care of me. During the sessions, you provided a sense of balance, inner peace, time out, and clear thoughts. But you also provided positive, thoughtful and focused plans of action, along with tools, resources and “tips” to achieve the goals we discussed. You have wonderful insight and offer kind and honest support, with time to review. You empowered me to put the needed steps into action and develop the commitment and confidence to continue on my own, and I know you would do this for others as well. You thoughtfully create a safe, caring, honest space for expression and progression. Thank you so much!

Grief and Transition Guide

Grief is a strong, sometimes overwhelming emotion for people, regardless of whether their sadness stems from the loss of a loved one or from a terminal illness. I can provide guidance using my own personal experiences with loss and my decades-long experience as a registered nurse, doula, and hospice nurse.
