HEART TESTIMONIALS
Grief coaching clients
Two years ago, I experienced a loss that shook my world, nothing could have prepared me for the pain. I thought “time heals all” but time was passing, and I was still hurting, my heart felt torn into pieces, I wasn’t myself.
When I saw Katie’s posts about grief and GRM on Instagram, I recognized I wasn’t alone! It felt so good to finally talk to someone who understood, who personally knows loss and provides a safe, nonjudgmental space to openly talk and express my emotions.
Katie’s guidance opened me up to address past experiences and in turn become emotionally complete with experiences beyond what had originally brought me to work with her. She thoughtfully brought more of my emotions to the surface that I tucked away for years. I can attest GRM is not limited to grief felt after a loss from death.
My healing has produced a ripple effect from the inside out affecting other areas of my life. I am incredibly thankful for Katie and GRM! Katie is passionate about grief support and is made for this work!

"I absolutely recommend GRM with Katie, without hesitation, I can face my trust and grief better since going through GRM. Katie keeps space for you to talk and is the ultimate, best listener and supporter."
Katie’s sweet spirit and passion for helping grieving people is evident. I appreciate how vulnerable and open she was about her own grief and how she was gentle with my heart.
Katie quickly picked up on how hard I was on myself and consistently gave me grace and reminded me to be gentle with myself. Not only was this helpful in the grieving process with my mom, but also other losses. I recommend GRM, especially with Katie, to everyone working through any loss.

Katie’s testimony and witnessing her journey, provided me hope to try GRM. Cautiously, I made the commitment, nervous about whether this could help someone like me to move beyond my loss which the GRM uncovers in the “other losses” category.
After our session, I gained resolution, a sense of mental and emotional freedom – in a different and better way than I’d experienced even after investing in years of therapy. I especially appreciated that GRM is an action-based program with concrete steps, facilitated by Katie, an exceptional communicator, trusted friend and professional.
I absolutely recommend GRM with Katie, without hesitation, I can face my trust and grief better since going through GRM. Katie keeps space for you to talk and is the ultimate, best listener and supporter.

Working with Katie helped me learn how to navigate the journey of grief. Grief is always evolving and so are our emotions with grief, and this program helped me tackle the emotions that come with grief.
I learned to give myself grace in many circumstances while dealing with loss of my mom, and was able to come to peace with many situations from our relationship.

Helping children with loss
"Katie does such an incredible job demonstrating why the misconceptions I have been using with my kids were unhelpful."
Katie is a calm, safe listener who knows grief intimately. She lets you be you with no judgement of how you navigate your own grief. She welcomes all emotions.
Before taking the Helping Children with Loss class, I was looking to apply my new tools to my work, but realized I was still grieving the death of my parents.
I’ve learned how to slow down and to be a better listener.

This course was eye-opening. Katie does such an incredible job demonstrating why the misconceptions I have been using with my kids were unhelpful.
The myths are what I knew - so I had continued to teach them without challenging the ideas. Helping Children With Loss can benefit every parent and teacher.
