Hi, I’m Kelli.
Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page. My name is Kelli, and I’m honored to walk alongside individuals and families navigating the profound complexities of aging, death, and grief.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a minor in Sociology, I’ve always been drawn to understanding the human experience—our connections, emotions, and the ways we cope with life’s inevitable changes. This passion led me to pursue a Master’s in Gerontology, where I deepened my knowledge of aging and the unique challenges and opportunities that come with it. I have a strong passion for guiding individuals through the emotional and physical transitions of perimenopause and menopause, offering support and tools to navigate this significant life stage with confidence and understanding.
Grief is a universal experience, but it’s also deeply personal. My practice embraces the truth that grief extends far beyond the loss of life—it can be found in transitions, unmet expectations, and even joyful beginnings. Because I spent two decades working in the birth world as a birth doula and childbirth educator, I have developed a unique specialty in the tender and often unspoken grief of miscarriage and the death of a baby. These losses carry a unique weight, and I am committed to creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where the process of grief assimilation can begin.
I believe that acknowledging and honoring our grief, in all its forms, is a vital step toward renewal. Whether you are facing the aging process, mourning a loved one, or navigating the silent heartbreak of pregnancy or infant loss, I am here to listen, support, and guide you on your journey.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me watching the Seattle Mariners, spending time with my husband and our three adult sons, or wrangling my three cats. All while continuously reconnecting with the resilience and beauty that life offers, even amidst its challenges.
Aging, death and grief can all feel isolating, but you don’t have to face them alone. Together, we can explore ways to navigate these challenges and move forward with courage, grace, and hope.
Let’s begin the journey—together.
