what is a grief mentor?
A grief mentor is someone who is there to mentor you and help guide you through your own grief. I meet you where you are currently and help you devise a road map for your future.
Each mentorship is 1:1 and full of tools that I have personally used to move through my own loss. This mentorship is not to erase your loved one. Someone once told me grief is “just love with no place to go,” I would like to challenge that thought that grief is love in the absence of physical presence.
We will explore building a relationship with our loved one in a whole new way, what it means to grieve and live and what it means to feel all the opposing states of being and honoring where you are in this moment. I believe it is really important to honor where each bereaved person is at and allow for whatever is coming up to be. Often times I feel the pressure of picking right back up causes many to experience complicated grief. When we acknowledge where we are and allow ourselves permission to be often times we are able to move and explore those emotions building the foundation for us to heal.
I incorporate BREATHWORK, SOUND, MEDITATION, REIKI, and other modalities into my sessions to help support your entire being.
While my personal experience with grief is birthed from a tangible loss I also have experience moving through intangible loss. Intangible loss’ are the loss of identities, ways of life, dreams etc. These types of loss should not be minimized as the emotions felt are quite similar to tangible losses. The methodologies I have developed are fluid and can be customized to address all types of loss both tangible and intangible.
As a bereaved mother, I have journeyed like most of you through the depths of darkness and back and I feel that using this experience and what I have learned along the way will not only help guide you through your own grief but also create a life where JOY, HAPPINESS, AND LOVE can exist amongst your pain and sadness. I look forward to mentoring and guiding you through this process and empowering you to stand on your own two feet again with a new outlook on the future!
