You're not alone in this.

I am a Haven-trained bereavement doula and Certified Child Life Specialist on the Coastal Coping team based out of Central New Jersey and also serving virtually.

It is truly my honor to come alongside you, wherever you are at, and companion you throughout this impossibly hard experience. Some of my areas of specialty are working with teenage and young adult parents and supporting those who are neurodivergent or disabled with perinatal loss.
No matter where you are at, I'm always happy to listen to whatever you would like to share with me and walk with you in this.

I am a healthcare professional who provides emotional, informational, and practical support to your family experiencing pregnancy loss, stillbirth, infant loss, or a life-limiting fetal diagnosis. I am a fierce advocate and help you navigate difficult decisions, create meaningful memories and legacies with your baby, access resources, and receive compassionate care before, during, and after loss. I also provide death education, funeral and viewing preparation and support, and therapeutic grief coping support for children with my certification as a child life specialist.

Please contact me so we can talk more about your story and answer any questions. I'm looking forward to talking with you soon.

"We are carried. In bellies. In arms. In love. In hope. In caskets. In urns. In grief. In memories. Our whole lives and into the next, we are carried." - Sara Rian
