Grief Educator · Grief Movement Guide

Certified in Grief Education by David Kessler Grief Movement Guide trained by Paul Dennison


 A space to step away, be supported, and spend time understanding your grief. 


What This Is

You have been carrying this for a while now. Maybe you have tried to push through it. Maybe you have been waiting to feel better.

This weekend is for you — when you are ready to stop waiting and start understanding.

This retreat is a small, supported gathering for people who are ready to step away from the noise of everyday life and give themselves something they rarely get: time, space, and care.

There’s no timeline here. No expectation for where you should be in it.

There is no fixing here — only understanding, expression, and time to be.


What’s Included

  • Two-night stay at Hartzell House
  • Daily meals, thoughtfully prepared and shared together
  • Gentle, guided practices to understand and express grief – in the body and in words – with tools you can take home.
  • Quiet time built into every day for rest and reflection
  • A small, intimate group setting
  • A Sunday visit to Kentuck Knob, one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s most beloved homes

You don’t have to keep carrying this alone.

Grief is not something to push through. It is something to understand. And when you do — everything shifts.

This weekend is here when you are ready.
