What we’re about
I created The Crying Room because I know what it’s like to have no family nearby, and friends who are too busy—or not deep enough—to truly understand what you’re going through. As a solo parent of two young children, I have known the feeling of having nowhere to go, no one to help carry the weight. I wanted to change that.
Through a past relationship, I learned I could be fully there for someone—not just with words, but with presence. A shoulder to cry on, a steady body to lean against, a hand to rest on hair and face, a constant reminder: “You are safe. I will watch over you.” I wanted to bring that same presence to others, not just one person.
The Crying Room exists because too many of us carry heartbreak, grief, and loneliness alone. Friends are often too busy, family may not be present, and most of us have been told to “hold it together.” But the weight doesn’t leave until it is released.
This space offers something older and simpler than therapy or coaching: the ceremony of being witnessed. Here, you don’t need to explain or be strong. For the duration of the circle you can cry, speak, sit in silence, or even rest—while someone steady remains with you the whole time.
A candle is lit for each guest, holding the weight they bring. I watch over the body while the soul does its work, and when the time is complete, the flame is rested.
The Crying Room is not about fixing. It is about presence, release, and renewal.
I offer private sessions online or in person, if you would like to know more, I invite you to send me a private message.
