When your child has a broken heart . . . 

• Do you feel helpless, wondering how you can help to heal your grieving child's pain?
• Are you heartbroken that childhood loss has stolen the life you imagined for your child?
• Do you need something more than the safe place to share grief that typical grief support groups offer?
• Are you looking for help—for hope—on this detour of parenting your grieving child, for which you feel utterly unprepared? 

​
My heart goes out to you. I've been where you are. And I'm glad you're here.

When your child loses something or someone precious, you want desperately to take away the pain.  You want your grieving child to be happy and carefree again, but you don't know if that's possible.  It is.  Your child—and you--will feel better.

"Grief is in two parts," Anne Roiphe wrote in her book Epilogue. "The first part is loss. The second part is the remaking of life." I help parents overcome the heartache and challenges of childhood loss that keep them, their children and loved ones stuck in grief and pain—so they can remake a life beyond loss that is joy-filled and blessed.

Here's how I can help . . .

You need more than a listening ear and encouragement to help your grieving child live months and years of growing up after a devastating childhood loss. My programs provide parenting guidance for the remaking of life beyond loss. Find more information below or on my Programs page. Contact Me to learn more.
