Sonnabend Grief Support
Compassionate Guidance, Education & Coaching
Like you, I have experienced losses in my life that have affected me deeply.
I spent years pretending to be ok and wondering why true happiness was out of reach.
Maybe that's how life goes when someone you love dies?
​
Maybe this is how it feels when you experience divorce, family addiction, health changes, etc.?
I tried to accept the limits my unresolved grief placed on my life, but I desperately wanted more.
I was hurting, exhausted and stuck.
So what changed for me? After decades of seeking help from many sources, I partnered with a professional grief coach and began actively participating in my emotional healing and reimagining my life. My relationship with my grief and my overall life significantly changed.
I discovered my unique pathway to rebuilding life after loss which inspires me to guide others to do the same. I passionately do this work in loving memory of my father, Stephen and my son, Elijah.
​
I would be honored to help you discover your pathway.
