I feel very fortunate to have had Michelle as the facilitator of my grief support group. Michelle is a compassionate, knowledgeable guide who helped me enormously in the first year of my journey through grief.  She has a grounding presence, which is so important for someone whose world has just been shattered. She helped me understand and get perspective about the many upsetting experiences and feelings that accompany loss. I highly recommend her to people coping with grief.

I appreciate all the time and energy Michelle put in to help me reach this point –the empathy she showed for my situation and my reaction to it; her calm demeanor and understanding. I’ve looked forward to our weekly meetings as spending time with a friend — a friend who has experience and knowledge to help me learn from this and enter life again.

Michelle has a very tender thoroughness that goes straight to the heart of emotional inquiry. I felt validated and encouraged to pull the diamonds of truth from the grief still remaining. She gave me encouragement to keep moving in the direction of forgiveness.
