You don’t have to navigate grief alone. Coaching can help.
“I’ve taken my life and career experiences and combined them with my years as a social worker and life coach and formed INNtrospection. The name reflects the love I have for my former innkeeping career as well as the word which means to look inward, introspection.”
I am an expert in grief and navigating through that grief and loss.
This is life. Our roles change and shift, and our loved ones come and go without rhyme or reason. We all grieve for different lengths of time and at different paces.
I can help you through it to your new life and identity on the other side of the grief.
