Grief and Loss

Grief and loss are part of the human experience. Coping alone can make the process more difficult than it already is. Most people are aware of the stages related to grief and loss but many do not realize the process can vary in stages from day to day and can become more complicated than one can handle alone.
​
I understand the impact of grief and loss on a soul. I also embrace the healing that can come from having someone walk the journey with you.

Sometimes when the natural stages of grief persist, it is time to seek help.
