Helping You Feel Like You Again
Hi! I’m Marialicia - I work with you when you’re feeling LOST in your LOSS.
My specialty is helping you reconnect with yourself after loss.
My childhood friend died suddenly when I was 15, and then my brother-in-law when I was 19, and then my best friend when I was 20. I felt like the world was crashing down around me.
Death wasn’t for old people, the grandmas and grandpas.
It was for me.
Even though I was in a kind and loving family, no one talked about it. My mom didn’t want me to go to my friend’s funeral, “because I don’t want you to be sad.”
But I was so sad.
So confused.
So lost.
Over the last 30 years of working with birth (as a midwife) and death (as a hospice nurse), in addition to giving birth and being present for the death of both of my parents, I have lived the wild interconnectedness of birth and death and everything in between.
In 2015 I co-founded the grief non-profit, Grief Rites Foundation, amplifying the voices of grief through storytelling, because grief needs witnessing.
It’s a natural, healthy, and vital part of life; one that is terminally ignored in our culture.
Working together, you will feel buoyed by your grief instead of burdened by it.
