If you are grieving, but are not traumatically bereaved, you may still benefit from support in the form of grief coaching. Here, I provide a personalized structured plan that includes grief education and exercises designed to help you tend to the six needs of mourning as they are described by Dr. Alan Wolfelt: (1) Acknowledge the reality of your loss, impending loss, or medical diagnosis related change; (2) Process your emotions connected to this life transition; (3) Develop ways to Honor this transition; (4) Cultivate a renegotiated personal identity and set of wellness practices in response to your life change and loss; (5) Search for new existential meanings and understandings in relation to your shift in circumstance; (6) Engage ongoing support from reliable social and educational networks. Tending work is pursued to foster reconciliation to your major life shift.
Our supportive coaching work begins with 8 structured sessions over eight weeks and may include somatic, nature-based, expressive art, and Christian practice exercises. Generally speaking, grief coaching relationships do not extend beyond one year.
Grief coaching is not covered by insurance. The fee for a 50-minute session is $150.
