Grief Recovery & Support
It is never too soon to start healing your broken heart.
You think it will never happen to you – and then it does. Part of Grief Recovery is unlearning some myths about grief, and eliminating the confusion around stages. This is where I can help you.

If you’ve found your way here, it’s likely that something in your life has changed—and your heart is hurting.
Grief is a natural response to loss. It can follow the death of someone you love, but it can also arise through separation, illness, the loss of a pet, retirement or any major life transition.
Whatever has brought you here, your experience is real. With the right support, you can begin to understand what you’re feeling, work through the pain and find a way forward that feels right for you.

About Grief First AidMeet Jodie
Support from someone who understands grief personally.
I know how completely grief can turn your life upside down.
After losing my husband just 37 days after his terminal diagnosis, I found myself navigating intense sadness, fear, anxiety and the loss of my own identity. I also discovered how unprepared we often are for grief—and how rarely we speak about it openly.
My own experience led me to become a Certified Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist®. Today, I use both professional training and lived experience to help others understand their grief, work through unresolved pain and begin moving forward with purpose and meaning.
