Grief & Spiritual Counseling
Grief and Loss
Grief and loss may evoke some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we will experience at some point in our lives. Depending on the loss, grief can feel different for different people. It can feel as if a tsunami struck your heart, or perhaps a crashing of ocean waves, and yet for others their grief can feel more like that of a gentle rain. Whatever you feel, you feel. Just as we each love in our own way, we grieve in our way. Through individual and/or group support, we are able to help you identify, express, and feel your feelings around grief and loss. Grief can be cumulative as there is no expiration date on grief. As you move through your grief and loss, you find a new perspective, a new normal, experience joy and peace as you move towards acceptance.
Trauma & PTSD
Many individuals experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger following traumatic events. We help you work through these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing. As a Transpersonal Counselor, I whole-heartedly embrace and live this quote by Pema Chodron: "Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well, can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity."
Spiritual Counseling
Spiritual counseling is beneficial to people who are open and/or willing to discover or deepen their spirituality. Clients are shown how experiences, even in the depths of deep darkness, can lead them to spirituality, connecting or reconnecting with their own innate "inner light compass" irregardless of religious or spiritual belief system(s) or philosophies. Issues are addressed, such as addiction, grief, self-destructive behaviors and patterns, and trauma, which may have prevented you from living and experiencing self-actualization and transcendence in a purpose-driven life. As a proponent of synchronicity, let me say "if you are waiting for a sign this is it!"

2019 Magical Snow in Las Vegas Brings the Spirit of Christmas to a Mended Heart!
Snow, like grief, has an energy all its own. The snow fall in Las Vegas (February 2019) brought out laughter and an inner child in me as it did for many others. As a native Nebraskan I said, "Ooh it feels like Christmas!"
It also felt like Christmas when I reached a level of acceptance, unimaginable to me after the unexpected and traumatic deaths of my daughter and granddaughter. I faced the darkest nights of my soul. My heart is now healed and mended, filled with compassion, love, and hope. Determination, personal recovery, optimism, resiliency, tenacity, lots of love and prayers, along with plain old stubbornness (as I did not to want to die from grief) allowed healing, growth, and a peace that surpasses all understanding.
When you are ready and/or willing, I will walk with you, as far and as long as you will allow.
