Grief Counsellor & Somatic Therapist

You don't have to know
who you are yet.
You just have to start.

I work with women who are carrying grief in every form. Death. Identity loss. The quiet collapse of a life they built. I've lived it. All of it. Now I help you find your way through it.

"Wife to widow in nine months"

From I don't know

 —  to I Know Now

Her Story

She didn't lose herself.
She found herself.
___________________________________

My husband Glen died when I was thirty weeks pregnant. On the day my son Franklin was born, I lost my uncle too. Two years later, a motorcycle accident ended my career. Then came the businesses that closed. The relationships that ended. The slow dismantling of everything I thought I was.
I am not a therapist who studied grief from the outside. I am a woman who went through every version of it and came out the other side knowing something most people don't. Your body holds the answers your brain can't find yet.
"I went from wife to widow in nine months. That changed everything. Including me."
Twenty years as a hairdresser taught me how to hold space before I knew what that meant. I was always the counsellor in the salon. Now I just get to sit down to do the counselling.
Today I work with women who are carrying losses that don't always have names for. I give them the language, the body work, and the path forward.
