Mother loss is a lifelong journey. It’s common to feel stuck along the way.

Writing is a vulnerable act. It’s common to feel stuck in this process, too.

I’m here to help.

My 50-minute, 1:1 client sessions are custom-designed to help you reach new insights about your past and present, and set intentions for the kind of changes you hope to set in motion, starting right now.

You can begin by filling out the brief form below.
There’s no obligation — let’s first see if we’re a good fit!

Are you looking for support and understanding as you navigate the long arc of grief after mother loss?

Or are you needing creative help or emotional support as you write your personal story?

I’m a certified Martha Beck Life Coach with a master’s degree in nonfiction writing and certificate training in Narrative Therapy. I’ve written eight nonfiction books, including several groundbreaking ones about grief.

It’s my belief that our identities are based, in large part, on the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of our lives. These stories give us a sense of meaning and purpose. But sometimes we can get stuck circling around in an old story that’s ready to be revised or updated.

And sometimes revisiting that story brings up big emotions we need to process before we can move on.

That’s where I can help.

Whether you’re feeling stuck in your personal life, or feeling blocked with the story you’re trying to get down on paper, I can companion you in reframing and revising your narrative. You’ll finish each session with an equally true, yet more empowering, story to carry forward.

If you’re an early mother loss survivor who’d like to examine how your past is affecting your present, and also set goals for your future, I can help you identify and overcome emotional and practical obstacles.

If you’re a nonfiction writer hoping to find emotional support and creative guidance while writing your personal story, I’m here to help you process whatever comes up as you make sense of your story on the page.

I’m also available for full manuscript critiques and to offer feedback on pages on a limited basis throughout the year. Check in to see when my next opening is!

Please fill out the form below so we can start getting to know each other. I’ll be honest about whether I feel I can help, because it’s important that you find a coach who’s aligned with your needs. That’s what coaching is all about.
