Through my losses and the losses of others, I have learned that life is over, but it is never finished. If you are experiencing a recent loss of a family member, friend, or special friend, I am available to journey with you through this loss.

I will provide guidance, validation, and support but this journey is yours so I will check in with you regularly to ensure that your needs are being met.
