Grief

Grief is a natural and heartfelt response to loss, often expressed through various emotional, physical, and cognitive experiences. It is deeply personal, and there is no uniform way to grieve. Recognizing and honoring the individuality of grief is essential in offering gentle support and understanding to those navigating this tender journey.  

Grief - Death Related vs

Grief - Not Death Related

​

Did you know grief can be non-death related?  When we think of grief, we think of losing someone to physical death.  Grief can show up in different situations as well.  We can experience grief when we get a divorce, lose our home in a fire, lose relationships with others, struggle with our health and so many more situations. 

When we lose something we once had or when someone important to us leaves our lives, we experience feelings of shock, isolation, fear and confusion.  When a situation or loss changes what we thought our future would look like or changes our life in a way we didn't see coming, you can feel the emotions associated with grief.  

As a grief coach, I not only specialize in grief due to life lost, I can also help you if you are experiencing grief that is not associated with mortality.  It's still a death but it could be the death of a friendship, spousal or familial relationship, physical function or health changes.  The feeling of loss can be activated through situations such empty nest, job change or just feeling like the world isn't safe anymore. 

Through my personal experiences and training, I would love to invite you to contact me and together, we can discuss your loss, and you can decide how you want to move forward from that loss in a way you feel would be best for you.  I'll be here to listen, motivate and hold you accountable to the actions you choose to take!

What is a Life Coach?​

A life coach is a professional who aids individuals in making decisions, setting goals, and overcoming obstacles to achieve their personal and professional aspirations. Unlike therapists, who often focus on healing past traumas and addressing mental health issues, life coaches concentrate on the present and future, helping clients identify and execute strategies to improve their lives. They offer support, motivation, and accountability, empowering clients to reach their full potential.

Benefits of Life Coaching

Life coaching offers numerous benefits that can lead to significant personal and professional growth. Some of the key advantages include:

• Improved Decision-Making: Coaches assist clients in making informed and thoughtful decisions, enhancing their problem-solving skills.

• Enhanced Accountability: The accountability provided by a coach helps clients stay committed and disciplined in pursuing their goals.

• Personal Growth: Life coaching fosters continuous self-improvement, encouraging clients to embrace new challenges and opportunities.

 

 

 

 

Grief, I've learned, is really just love you want to give but cannot.  All the unspent loves gather up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest.  

 

- Grief is the last act of love we have to give to those we loved.  Where there is deep grief, there was great love​​​

Grief is itself, a medicine
