A gentle place for grief to be held
Where Light Returns Therapy was created from a simple belief —
that no one should have to carry their grief alone.
"Grief deserves patience, kindness, and a place to be
gently held."
I’m a Certified Grief Coach devoted to helping individuals navigate the deeply personal journey of loss and healing. With compassion, patience, and lived understanding, I support clients as they process grief without pressure or judgement.
I believe grief is not something to “get over,” but something to move through — with support, meaning, and care. My work meets you exactly where you are: in the quiet, in the storm, in the small moments of remembering
Whether you are facing a recent loss or carrying grief that has lived with you for years, you are welcome here. There is no timeline for healing, and no version of you that is too tender to be held.
