Grief Coaching
I help bereaved parents navigate their grief and new normal without guilt or judgment so they can release self-blame, rediscover their purpose, and keep their child’s love forever present in their hearts.
I offer compassionate and expert grief coaching services for individuals, organizations, and communities touched by loss. Whether you're an individual seeking solace, an organization supporting grieving employees, or a community needing tools for healing, I bring both professional expertise and a deep personal understanding to guide you. Through supportive self-paced courses and programs, facilitated group sessions, 1:1 grief coaching, insightful workshops, or tailored training, I can work together to find pathways through the pain, towards healing, and ultimately, towards finding ways to live with love and remembrance.
I specialize in grief programs and coaching for parents. Grief doesn’t have an expiration date and neither does love. At Chingona Consulting, I guide parents through the lifelong journey of loss for any parent who has lost a child, at any age, in any season of life.

Your Grief, Your Journey Grief Coaching for Bereaved Parents
Losing a child shatters every sense of normal. As a mother who has walked this unimaginable path, I know the ache that never fully leaves, the way grief can feel like wandering through a dense, endless fog. I offer grief courses and coaching programs that honors both the depth of your loss and the possibility of gentle healing.
My Heart-Centered Approach
Grief is not something to “fix.” It’s a lifelong relationship with love and memory. I combine lived experience of a bereaved parent and professional training to create a safe, compassionate space where you can share, breathe, and begin to re-weave your life with my HeartHeld Method™. Together we focus on:
Presence & Validation – You are heard without judgment. Your story matters.
Meaning Making – Explore rituals, practices, and personal narratives that honor your child and your continuing bond.
Tools for Daily Living – Gentle strategies to navigate triggers, anniversaries, and everyday moments.
Integration, Not Closure – Finding ways to live with love and remembrance, while carrying your child forward in your heart.
“There is hope, even in the darkest times. You do not have to walk this road alone.”
