Grief is either a tool or a weapon. In the Spring of 2024, I learned this lesson. Later that August, this tool of transformation became my lifeline during loss.

My younger brother died by suicide in January of 1998. In April of '24, 26 years of denying my grief had manifested as an eight month sleep disturbance (a weapon). My beloved mother, a Somatic Grief Therapist, recommended the 7-Week Grief Recovery Method or the four day intensive Specialist Training. At the end of my rope, I chose the latter.

After we completed seven weeks of work in about 2.5 days, I slept eight hours straight for the first time since I could remember. I KNEW this method worked. In August of '24, Mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. 28 days from initial diagnosis to her death.

While I am still processing her sudden loss, the tools the method taught me have been an invaluable resource for soothing the pain of her absence. Now, I have the clarity to navigate through the fog of grief. Now, I have the confidence to ride the waves of pain to the shores of transformation.

How will you use your grief? As a tool? Or, a weapon?

I live in Portland, Oregon. Currently, I offer One-on-One and Group sessions Online. I also offer One-on-One, six week programs for Pet Loss.

I look forward to sharing more about this transformational method and how it can benefit your life!
