 "Choose grief. And as you walk with your grief, actively mourn. Cry when you need to, call a friend when you feel overwhelmed, join a grief support group, express yourself through writing, music, dance, or sports. By taking action, you will eventually integrate the death of your loved one into your life. In exchange, you will find the hope, courage, and desire to once again live a full and rewarding life" - Dr. Alan Wolfelt

Our Approach

At Sacred Grove Grief Companion Services, I am dedicated to providing personalized and empathetic support to individuals navigating end of life, grief and bereavement. My approach integrates evidence-based techniques and a deep understanding of the unique emotional needs of each client. I believe in creating a safe and nurturing environment where individuals can explore their feelings, find strength, and embark on a journey towards healing and hope.

​

Here at Sacred Grove Grief Companion Services I use Dr. Alan Wolfelt's companioning approach to grieving. This is a way to support someone who is grieving by being present and listening to them. It's based on the idea that the bereaved person is the expert on their own experience.

 

How it works:

​

  • I create a safe space: Offer a compassionate and open heart to the person who is grieving 

  • Learn and observe: We become familiar with the person's story and experiences 

  • Don't try to fix: companioning is about being present with the person's pain, not taking it away 

  • Respect confusion: Don't impose order or logic on the person's experience
