GRIEF CERTIFIED PEER-TO-PEER
How to Find the Right Grief Certified Support
We suggest you start with a phone call. Let them know you found them through grief.com.
Ask them about their style.
Tell them briefly about you.
They may or you may ask to start with an initial meeting. In person is the best way to assess if you are a match.
Make sure you discuss fees, before you begin, so there is clarity.

As a parent who has experienced the loss of a child to medical illness, I offer parent to parent support to others either anticipating such a loss or following the death of a child. I have offered both one to one and group support over the past nine years, offering compassionate listening, understanding, and hope that the pain of grief will evolve.
I am the author of Happy Faces Only: The Story of a Little Girl Who Lived, a memoir about my family’s journey with our daughter, hoping to help others better understand the experience of living with a child with a life-threatening illness and end of life care, and relatability for others walking a similar path. I have been sharing my family’s story for over a decade with healthcare professional and post-secondary student audiences. I am open to requests for speaking engagements on a variety of topics related to my lived experience.

I remember how invaluable it was to connect with fellow bereaved parents when my 19yr old daughter Shuggie passed in July 2020. These connections are what continue to propagate me through my loss and help me find some purpose in my life holding Shuggie in my heart. I am a member of David Kessler’s Evolved hearts and completed the grief educator certification course receiving my certificate on what would have been Shuggie’s 21st birthday 1st Nov 2021.
This course was a space for me to share my grief and learn how to integrate it within my new life. The support I received was so meaningful and made me feel like I belong.
I would now like to volunteer my experience and be a peer support to fellow bereaved parents out there.
Please email me to connect. I would be happy to offer virtual meetings during the weekends.
