Everything I do is to empower others to see their own greatness. I believe everyone deserves to have someone special by their side to offer support, guidance, hope and encourage self-empowerment when someone dear to them has died. From this heartfelt space is where I shine, naturally uplifting those grieving a loss.

Through my life’s journey with moments of joy and deep despair I know I am no different than many of you. Now, I define myself by the courage and strength it took me to get to where I am today. Many others saw this in me long before I believed in myself.

I did not start out in this spot. By 2004 my heart had stopped singing and I had lost myself. After 29 years of marriage I started my life over. I truly believe I have been guided to where I am supposed to be.

First receiving a diploma from college as a Social Service Worker, and being a registered member of the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) ever since. I then continued with my education.

Graduating from university as an adult student with a degree majoring in Thanatology; which is the study of death and loss, I opened my private practice “Healing a Heart’s Loss” as a grief counsellor. I am qualified to do psychotherapy through the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.

Throughout my life’s journey I have experience with supporting those with codependency and addiction concerns, abortion, traumas, spirituality, loss of self, child loss, murder, Indigenous and multigenerational losses, suicide loss and much more.

Life is said to be a journey you go through, not a destination. For myself it is a process of self discovery, and trying to stay in my own lane; not taking on other people’s problems. Being there to care and not carry what is not mine.

I have been told that when talking about death and loss that, “This is were I shine”.
