Hi! My name is Allie and I’m grateful you’re here. Although originally from the Seattle area, I now reside in the beautiful city of South Hadley, MA with my husband and son.
Two main losses led me to pursue becoming a Grief Recovery Specialist, both of which happened as a young adult. When I was 20 years old, my boyfriend of 1.5 years died unexpectedly in a hiking accident. A month later my parents were officially divorced after being separated for over a year. These two events left me feeling extremely lost, alone and heartbroken. Despite the loving care of my family, peers, and church, I didn't know what to do with these overwhelming emotions. It seemed that no one truly knew how to help me, and I certainly didn't know how to help myself.
In 2020, I was introduced to the GRM Program by some of my friends – and I’m so glad that I was! Grief Recovery has transformed the way I view grief and the natural responses that come with it. It has given me the tools to navigate my losses and to become emotionally complete. More recently, this incredible program has greatly helped me through the death of our dog, moving during a pandemic, and starting a new job.
Grief has played a big role in my life and I am passionate about helping others on their journey toward healing their hearts. I would love to connect with you about GRM - send me a message to set up an initial consultation!
