Are grief and emotional pain holding you back from enjoying life?  Are you suffering from a broken heart?  Have you not been able to move forward in your life due to a significant (emotional) loss?  Then Grief Recovery Support is for you.

The Grief Recovery Method is an evidence-based method, a step by step "action program", that unlocks and respects the emotional experience of your grief - both immediate grief issues and those that may have been holding you captive for years.  Read more about it HERE.

1-on-1 - online or in person - is for those who prefer to work one on one rather than in a group setting. This 7-week format utilizes the same proven materials as the group programs in a more private setting.

Group experience - our 8-meeting group offers a safe, evidence-based environment for grievers to take effective and lasting action, no matter the type of loss experienced.

Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork

Swedish/Relaxation Massage - $100 for 1hr - is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines lotion, gel, and/or essential oils with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.

MLD - manual lymphatic drainage - $125 for 1hr - head, neck, and face, or full body session(s), using a gentle technique and rhythmic strokes, working with the lymphatic system.  This form of bodywork is performed through the client's loose and comfortable clothing, and aims to increase lymph flow (as opposed to massage which focuses on muscles); pain-free and designed to be deeply relaxing.  The client is expected to drink plenty of water before and after the session(s).

 

Specific/Focused Massage - $100 for 1hr - targets one or a few areas for the duration of the appointment, and uses a more profound or targeted approach.  This form of bodywork aims to relieve tension in the deeper muscle layers of the body and is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries.  Due to the nature of this deeper and specific work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is common after the treatment, and most people opt to drink plenty of water after the session.

(specific , focused, "deep tissue", orthopedic, injury relief - use of various modalities or techniques, including cupping and Theragun)

 

Combo Swedish and Specific - $150 for 1hr30 - is also a tailored session; can be a combination of relaxation and focused work on one or two specific areas.

Chair massage - prices vary - is a popular way to relieve stress or tension right in your home or workplace.  You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location.  In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over clothing.  With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage.  Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.

Yoga & Meditation

"Stress-less" Yoga - is an 8-week modified kundalini yoga program for adults who feel (chronic) stress, have experienced trauma or who just want a more tailored experience.  Please note, in order to participate in a group setting, I ask that you are able to self-regulate, and if more personal attention is needed please consider a 1-on-1 yoga program.

Yoga-CBT  - is a 6-week blended program for adults with prolonged stress.  Y-CBT blends the effective components of cognitive behavioral therapy with Kundalini yoga to teach participants to break the cycle by targeting both the cognitive (thought) and physical symptoms of stress simultaneously. The program helps create a neutral place that leaves self-judgment and criticism behind.  Using gentle cognitive restructuring the participant learns to quiet negative self-talk of stress, anxiety and worry, while also calming the body with a variety of yoga and breathing techniques from Kundalini yogic traditions.   

Meditation - please inquire about current programs or tailored sessions.
