A Guy-Wire Approach to Grief: A Safe and Supportive Space
​
What is a Guy-Wire?
In engineering, a guy-wire is a secure cable that stabilizes a freestanding structure.
It provides support, preventing the structure from toppling over.
​
How does this analogy apply to grief counseling?
Professional. grief counseling, like a guy-wire, provides essential support and stability during times of emotional upheaval. It helps individuals navigate the complexities of grief, preventing them from being overwhelmed by its weight.
My approach to grief counseling is based on the following principles:
-

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for,
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love,
for dreams, for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon.
I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow,
if you have been opened by life’s betrayals or have become shriveled
and closed from fear of further pain! I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own; if you can dance with wildness and let ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, or to remember the limitations of being a human.
It doesn’t interest me if the story you’re telling me is true.
I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself;
if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul.
I want to know if you can be faithful and therefore trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see beauty even if it’s not pretty every day,
and if you can source your life from God’s presence. I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand on the edge of a lake and shout to the silver moon, ‘Yes!’
It doesn’t interest me where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair,
weary, bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done for the children.
It doesn’t interest me who you are, how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me
and not shrink back.
It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you from the inside, when all else falls
away.
I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

SPIRITUAL HUMANISM
"I searched for God with heart-throbs of despair,
'Neath ocean's bed, above the vaulted sky;
At last, I searched mySelf... my inmost 'I',
And found Him there." - Henry Wood,
American author, philosopher & psychologist (1834-1908)
In a nutshell, for me, Spiritual Humanism means seeing and serving the Creator in Humanity, in our Divine reflection, through the lens of ethics and of reason. My temple is Nature, and my personal concept of spirituality can not be confined to one book, one building, two genders, one dogma, or any single belief system. This does not mean I judge your beliefs or feel superior. Just the opposite, in fact.
About Me
As a global citizen and a Peregrine, I've come to appreciate the richness and diversity of all belief systems. My personal journey has deepened this understanding. In 2008, my son expired from brain cancer, an experience that forever changed my life. Seeking therapy at the time, I was unable to find a counselor who could truly empathize, having not outlived a child themselves. Everything was too generalized and "by-the-book." For me, therapy without empathy was useless.
​
Inspired by this experience, I dedicated myself to becoming a Grief & Survival Therapist. In 2023, I proudly earned my diploma and international certification. Now, as a lifetime member of The Complimentary Therapists Accredited Association (CTAA) and International Holistic Therapists & Course Providers (IHTCP)
​
In 2024, I published my first book, The Lost Traveler's Field Guide & Workbook: Navigating The Grief Journey Through A Quantum Lens
​
Through my own journey and work with my clients, I've discovered a common thread that connects us all: we are each precious and unique, with the capacity for immense resilience and wisdom.
​
In a world often dominated and divided by technology and media, there is still so much to learn and explore. I feel privileged to offer guidance and support to those who seek it, committed to helping you connect with your own inner strength and sense of purpose.
