Sharing a Bed with Grief

Safe & Sound is a facilitated support space for those living inside grief—not as something to overcome, but as a life-altering experience that reshapes identity, relationships, and the body itself.

This group is rooted in both lived experience and professional training. It was shaped by my own history of parental alienation, family betrayal, scapegoating, and the loss of loved ones through deception, lies, and ruptured truth—forms of grief that are rarely acknowledged, yet deeply destabilizing. These losses often come with long stretches of heaviness: endless nights, indistinguishable days, withdrawal, numbness, and periods many quietly shame themselves for, including “bed-rotting.”

Here, these responses are understood as human, nervous-system-based reactions to profound loss—not personal failures.
Alongside lived experience, Safe & Sound is informed by my background as a psychology student with a minor in women’s studies, trauma-recovery yoga certification, Reiki certification, and over five years of coaching women navigating sexual trauma, familial abuse, and narcissistic abuse.

This space is held with both compassion and structure, honoring emotional safety, pacing, and choice.

Grief is not rushed or romanticized here. There is no expectation to control the process, perform healing, or offer insight on demand.

Silence is welcome. Language is optional. Presence is enough.

Safe & Sound exists to meet grief where it actually lives—in the body, in relationships, and in time—and to offer companionship where isolation and shame so often take hold.
