Who am I? I’m Beth, a seasoned joy detective and your full hearted hostess with the mostest…I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered Art Therapist, an EMDR practitioner, and a Creative Grief Support Practitioner as well. I’m also a caregiver to my partner Michael and can put on my unofficial nurses hat and care for him if I need to. I’ve done my own apprenticeship to grief and come out the other side ready and passionate to help you navigate and befriend grief. At the moment I call myself the Grief Freak (freak=passion). I use out of the box ways to help you come right side up again in grief. I help you feel both the bitter and the sweet. I’m a lover of nature and black cats. I’m a full hearted human who is doing her best to remain hopeful and keep fighting this good fight. I’m a cis-gendered female. I’m raised Lutheran and come from a long line of ministers from Norway, Sweden, and German roots. I now pray to the elements and ancestors while I dance with my toes in the dirt here in the Arapahoe and Ute lands I inhabit in Boulder, Colorado. And I try to become a better white bodied accomplice every damn day.
