Founder of Whole Mother Story
I’m a therapist, a mother, and someone who’s walked alongside many stories of heartbreak, resilience, and tender beginnings. My work is rooted in nervous system care, emotional safety, and honoring the complexity of grief.
If you're here because of a loss—visible or invisible—I want you to know that your story matters. You don’t have to rush to feel better. You don’t have to tie it up with a bow. You just get to be real here.
Whole Mother Story was born from a deep belief: that we heal in safe relationships, with gentle truths, and practices that honor the full spectrum of what it means to grieve, love, and begin again.
