One-on-one sessions in Mortality + Impermanence Coaching offer a confidential and empathetic environment for the exploration of your emotional and meta-emotional landscape. Such sessions are invaluable for those wrestling with the layered reactions to understanding life's transient nature, whether due to a recent diagnosis, life transitions, or a quest to live with greater mindfulness of our finite existence. This personalized approach facilitates a deep, nuanced dialogue tailored to your individual journey, helping to unravel complex feelings of fear, acceptance, or even the guilt or anxiety about feeling fear itself. It supports you in navigating through these multifaceted emotional landscapes towards clarity, acceptance, and a more profound appreciation of the present. Through this focused, empathetic engagement, you can discover a path to personal growth, peace, and a renewed purpose, enriching your quality of life with a deeper understanding and a more liberated acceptance of life’s impermanence.

Specialties

Grief Processing: Emotionally and mentally working through the feelings of loss, sadness, and other emotions that come with the death of a loved one or the loss of something significant. It is a natural and normal part of the grieving process, and can involve a range of emotions and psychological experiences. We build practices and everyday rituals to support the process.

Life Transitions: By creating a safe and supportive environment for processing emotions and experiences, individuals identify and understand their feelings, develop coping strategies to manage stress, provide guidance and receive support as they navigate these challenges. Self-care and grounding practices promote overall well-being.

Death Anxiety: Fear or unease about death and the unknown aspects of existence that come with it. This type of anxiety is a normal part of the human experience, but if it becomes overwhelming or affecting relationships it is best to be supported.

Death anxiety can manifest in various ways, including fear of physical death, fear of the unknown, fear of leaving loved ones behind, and fear of the loss of personal identity. This anxiety can also impact an individual's quality of life, leading to feelings of hopelessness, depression, and a sense of meaninglessness.

Eco-anxiety: The chronic fear or dread experienced in response to environmental degradation, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and other ecological crises. Through connecting to your own mortality, you can align your values to your actions with a grounded sense of purpose.

Ancestral Healing: Ancestral healing is a process of connecting with one's ancestral lineage and addressing the intergenerational trauma that may have been passed down. This process can help individuals understand and heal from these emotional and psychological impacts.
