Introduce your brand

Bereavement Coaching for Corporate & Leadership

One survey by the New York Life Foundation (2022) found that 68% of respondents agreed or strongly agreed with the idea that additional professional development regarding grieving and bereavement practices was necessary within their organization. Let me help you make this a reality.

Speaking Engagements

Combining research with an engaging energy I am available to speak on topics such as navigating grief, supporting the bereaved, grief support policies in the workplace, end of life planning, and legacy planning.

Death Doula Support with Kim

I have been an educator for the past 24 years, and earned my doctoral degree from Creighton University in 2024, with a research focus on organizational support of the bereaved. 

Following the sudden loss of my mother in 2021, I recognized the power of relationship in grief, and soon accepted that my mission would be to improve how we approach death, dying and supporting those who are grieving. 

I am a trained death doula, trained by Deathwives in the winter of 2024. I volunteer with a local nonprofit organization dedicated to providing expert support for those grieving, working with small groups and co-facilitating a book club focused on processing grief through fiction and non-fiction text. I believe in supporting anyone in need and openly partner with people of all backgrounds. We are all going to die, we are all likely to grieve…ALL are welcome here!
