Robin Held Grief Coach

"Robin has a wealth of tools, wisdom, and resources to help process grief and move forward in life. Working with her, I learned many useful things. One standout was the role of guilt in grief and how to better understand guilt and how it creates suffering."

--Sanjit Singh, CEO, Boltt.io, Releasing Guilt in Grief

“I am recommending Robin to loved ones and colleagues. I’ve been in therapy and coaching. But this specific process with Robin is like nothing I have ever experienced. I lost my father in july. He was my most beloved person. And the space and time to process and move through my grief is the best gift I’ve ever given myself.”

Robin helped me feel heard and understood and cherished and NORMAL in my pain, which was life-changing.

--Sarah, Business Leader, Learning the Gifts of Grief

“I came to Robin holding the weight of suffering like a giant rock; the guilt was smothering me. As a person who finds it difficult to open up, I felt safe with Robin, and able to be completely honest about things I would never say to others, maybe even myself. She is intuitive and knows exactly what is needed and when. I felt an intensity of grief, even joy, for the first time in a long time.”

--Elizabeth, artist, remembering my brother with more love than pain

Working with Robin was great because I fully believed she was there to uplift me, help me identify what was going well, and alternately, areas of concern. She then used those insights to help me frame what a path forward looks like.

The tools Robin provided are ones I'll return to in the future - they helped me pause, reflect and use those insights to guide me forward.

--Lin, Arts + Culture Leader, Making Transformational Change

I recommend Robin's coaching to anyone in need of support. She leads with grace, is calm, and genuinely had your best interest at heart. 

What I found most useful was Robin's ability to meet me where I am. Whether it was needing to reschedule, squeezing me in, or me needing to cut time short. I was always comfortable knowing she was flexible and understanding. 

My discovery with Robin's coaching was learning tools to cope through times of crisis. I am now armed with techniques,  natural supports, and self-care tools to keep me at an improved baseline.

“Robin has a natural gift, period. She is able to hold the grieving process with transparency, vulnerability, empathy, and clear boundaries, and in turn, build trust. She is authentic, and that is felt in the sessions. I trusted her and as a result, I was able to engage in the program and exercises in a deeper way. 

 

I found this to be a transformative process in helping me in my early stages of grief. Robin is a superior grief coach. I would recommend her over and over again. I would seek out her services again if needed”.  

 

--Anne, leader of progressive change, learning to grieve without apology

After grief coaching with Robin, I've stopped cycling around a deeply painful relationship. I'm just done. For real this time. She helped me get at the heart of issues rather than talking around them forever. It's satisfying and relieving to close the loop. I've also gained so many new insights and made connections about other relationships in my life and my own behavior and responses. I recommend grief coaching with Robin to my friends and colleagues. Too many people are walking around carrying grief and trying to ignore it. It won't be ignored. It insists on popping up and shaking you and poking you until you want to scream and try to stuff it all down again. I'm so grateful for going through this process with Robin and understanding that I am stronger for facing the grief and finally letting it rest. I wish this for my friends, too.
