I have worked for over 40 years as a licensed clinical social worker. When my son died, in 2018, I felt my background as a clinician did little to help me understand my grief. So, I became a student of grief, learning all I could about this journey. As I result, I have 3 certifications in grief therapy. I am most proud of my certification as an art-assisted grief therapist. Art helped me process my son's death leading me to discover my own resilience in grief. This led to the writing of my book, I Got Up A Mother's Story of Grief, Resilience and Unending Love. I have also written A Grief Journal for Bereaved Parents. One of my passions is leading grief collaging workshops.
I live with my husband in Northern California near my children and grandchildren.
