Spiritual Mentor & Grief Coach Guiding Your Journey Through Grief

A Structured Path Through Grief, Spiritual Disruption, and Continuing Bonds

Paths Forward

Two different ways of engaging this work, depending on
where you find yourself now.

The primary path for those ready to engage deeply

PATH 1 — Between Worlds

A year-long, guided journey for those whose grief has raised deeper questions about death, continuity, and the nature of relationship beyond loss.

This path unfolds slowly, within a small and held space, and is designed to be lived with rather than completed.

For those requiring individualized support.

PATH 2 — Private Grief Guidance

For individuals requiring private guidance alongside or beyond the Between Worlds journey. This is offered selectively for individuals whose grief feels existential or identity-altering, and who want guided support in developing continuing bonds and reorienting meaning after loss.

About the Guide

I have spent decades working at the intersection of grief, consciousness, and lived spiritual experience.

This work has been shaped not only by study and teaching, but by sustained engagement with people in profound loss, and by the questions that grief raises when reassurance is no longer sufficient.

I do not approach this work as a method or a system, but as a responsibility — to be clear, careful, and grounded when others are navigating what has altered their inner world.

Pillars of Grief Community

A quiet, shared space for those living with loss.

Grief can be isolating, even when surrounded by people.

The Pillars of Grief community exists as a shared ground, a place where language is careful, presence is respected, and no one is required to explain themselves.

It is not a forum or a social space. It is a place to remain in conversation with ideas, reflections, and others who understand that grief does not resolve, it continues.

Belonging — without exposure ● Continuity — without pressure ● A shared language — without performance
