Unbecome. Unfold. Unleash.
"Art is a wound turned into light." ~ Georges Braque
Certified creative grief support coach
I am a certified life coach specializing in creative grief support and, soon - recovery. Currently, I am undergoing training with the International Association of Professional Recovery Coaches (IAPRC) to achieve my Certified Professional Recovery Coach (CPRC) credential.
My personal experience with grief began at a young age, which led me to discover the incredible power of healing through creative expression during my own personal therapy sessions. In my coaching practice, I employ an art journal, known as
the heArt journal, as a primary tool to facilitate the healing process. I firmly believe in the transformative impact of creative exploration and maintain a holistic approach that nurtures the mind, body, and soul. Guiding my clients through the journey of unbecoming, unfolding, and unleashing their true potential while navigating the complexities of grief is a privilege that I wholeheartedly embrace.

Grief Coaching Process
I offer a free Zoom consultation. This is a great opportunity for us to connect, see if we are a good match for working together, discuss your goals for healing from loss and grief, and figure out the best way to move forward.
Coaching Agreement
I understand the importance of setting out the terms of our professional partnership. This Coaching Agreement covers key aspects such as confidentiality, fees, creative supplies, and the shared expectations of both parties. I believe that commitment is most meaningful when it is made by choice rather than obligation. Therefore, my contract expressly states that should you choose to end our coaching relationship, you can do so by providing notice, and any remaining prepaid sessions will be promptly refunded in full. I am genuinely looking forward to embarking on this journey with you and am committed to supporting you every step of the way.
Building Trust & Rapport
We will embark on a collaborative journey to explore your feelings of loss in a mindful and compassionate manner. If you're uncertain about the direction you'd like this process to take, don't fret— I will provide gentle guidance to help you uncover and navigate your thoughts and emotions. Together, we will engage in creative art exploration, utilizing tools such as the heArt journal and other creative grief tools to facilitate our exploration. It's important to note that this experience is entirely personalized. I can confidently assure you that, after each session, you will depart feeling emotionally lighter and on the path to healing.
Establish Goals & Celebrate Milestones
Setting healing goals and commemorating milestones together is a vital part of the journey. It's essential to establish goals that are both realistic and attainable, allowing you to witness your own success and strive to live up to your full potential. You will take the lead in this process, while I provide support along the way.
Meet Weekly or Bi-Weekly via Zoom
In the coming weeks, you have the freedom to select the areas you'd like to focus on during our 90 minute sessions. You also have the option to choose whether to take specific actions between our sessions. If you're interested, I can provide you with creative tasks to explore during this time. However, it's important to note that you have the autonomy to decide what works best for you. If unforeseen circumstances arise and you're unable to complete the creative tasks, there will be no negative repercussions. My role is to offer guidance and support, aiding you in leveraging your expertise during our collaborative sessions.
Closing Celebratory Session
Once you feel ready, our partnership will come to a close, signifying the attainment of your healing goals. We will joyfully celebrate your accomplishments and meticulously plan for the next positive steps to help you continue living a life of healing and expansion.
