As a nurse whose surgical job was put on hold and reassigned to work on the COVID units of a local hospital, in the early days of the corona virus. In the first few weeks, fear was running high in both patients and staff. Policies and procedures were changing by the hour, and my shifts and hours were fluctuating as well. Kathleen listened openly and with deep compassion, waiting for me to pour all my fears, frustrations and sorrows out. Then, in the most tender way, she acknowledged all I was going through and how difficult that must be. She then pointed out my strengths and helped me come up with strategies and comfort measures to help me get through my days. Kathleen didn't dictate, judge, or tell me what to do or even try to "fix" anything. She had an innate sense of "knowing" what I needed, and helped me come to this awareness with her guidance. Hearing her voice on the other end of the line, and being truly listened to, alone gave me peace and comfort. Kathleen balances compassion with knowledge, and weaves these two with ease, grace and humor. She helped me find the strength to carry on, providing care to my patients, knowing I had her to turn to as a gifted coach. Kathleen combines the art and science of true healing, and I highly recommend her for grief, stress, and end of life coaching. Kathleen is excellent.

I wasn't sure what to expect from the holding space consultation offered by the Institute of Birth, Breathe and Death, but it was cathartic, affirming, and open; I really appreciate your
listening and your active mirroring of my own experience as it unfolded over Zoom. Thank YOU Kathleen.

My family had asked me to talk with someone for over a year since my daughter died. It was after I was in a recent car accident that I decided they were right. I need to face what's eating me up inside and I decided to work with Kathleen. She is calm and reassuring even though all I talked about was my anger. She easily answers my questions and I could tell she understands and cares.
