Hi, I’m Kelli
Certified Grief Coach | Author | Compassionate Companion Through Loss
I am a Certified Grief Coach, writer, and mother who understands loss both personally and professionally.
Grief entered my life long before I considered coaching.
I’ve experienced it through the tragic loss of my daughter, through divorce — both my own and my parents’ — through career transitions and job loss, through watching people I love face Alzheimer’s and cancer, and through the quiet ending of friendships and chapters of life I thought would last forever.
What I’ve learned is this:
Grief isn’t one thing, and it doesn’t follow a timeline.
It can show up as sadness, anger, confusion, exhaustion, or simply feeling stuck while the world keeps moving around you.
And it isn’t only connected to death. Grief can come from any loss — a relationship, a role, a sense of identity, or the life you thought you were building.
For more than 25 years, my professional life has centered on relationships — listening, supporting, guiding people through complex decisions, and helping them move forward when the path wasn’t clear. Coaching is a natural extension of the work I’ve already been doing my entire life.
I’m not here to fix you, and I’m not here to rush your process.
I’m here to sit with you in it, help you make sense of what you’re carrying, and support you as you begin to rebuild in a way that feels authentic to you.
This is a space for real conversation, real emotion, and real forward movement — without judgment and at your own pace.
The Meaning Behind The Name
The name I Love You More Healing comes from something deeply personal.
It was the last text message I exchanged with my daughter, Skylar.
She wrote, “I love you,” and I responded, “I love you more.”
Those words have stayed with me — not only as a memory, but as a reminder that love continues, even alongside grief.
This work was born from that love.
It’s a space created in honor of the connection we carry with the people and parts of our lives we’ve lost, and the healing that can still unfold.
My Approach
I believe:
There is no right way to grieve.
Loss takes many forms.
Healing happens through being heard and supported.
You are allowed to move forward without leaving your story behind.
My role is to hold space for you — gently, compassionately, and without expectation — as you navigate whatever transition you’re facing.
Writer & Author
Writing has been one of my own healing tools.
I’m the author of I Love You More, a collection of early blog reflections written through seasons of love, loss, and rebuilding. Those words connected with people in ways I never expected and reminded me how many of us are carrying similar stories beneath the surface.
