Nature‑Inspired Grief Coach | 20‑Year NHS Doctor | Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner | North Yorkshire
I am a nature‑inspired grief coach based in North Yorkshire, specialising in helping people process grief through meaningful connection with the natural world. With 20 years of experience as an NHS doctor and additional training in lifestyle medicine, I support individuals and groups who want a compassionate, holistic, and evidence‑informed approach to healing after loss.
My coaching is rooted in the understanding that grief is a natural human experience—one that deserves space, validation, and gentle guidance. Many people feel lost or unsure how to cope after bereavement, pregnancy loss, or major life change. Nature offers a powerful, grounding way to reconnect with yourself, regulate your emotions, and find steadiness during difficult times. I help people use nature as a supportive tool, blending therapeutic outdoor practices with lifestyle medicine to create a safe and nurturing environment for healing.
I work with people experiencing all forms of grief: bereavement, pregnancy loss, anticipatory grief, identity shifts, relationship changes, and the quieter, less‑spoken‑about losses that accumulate over time. Whether you feel stuck, numb, anxious, or simply overwhelmed, I offer a calm, non‑judgemental space to explore what you’re carrying. Together, we use nature as a guide—through mindful outdoor experiences, sensory awareness, reflective exercises, and simple rituals that help you feel grounded and empowered.
You do not need to be “outdoorsy” to benefit. My sessions are gentle, accessible, and tailored to your comfort level. I offer one‑to‑one grief coaching and group sessions, available outdoors in the beautiful landscapes of North Yorkshire or online for those further afield. Many people find that even small, intentional nature‑based practices can create meaningful shifts in how they feel and cope.
My aim is to help you build a lasting relationship with nature that continues to support your healing long after our sessions end. If you’re looking for a nature‑inspired grief coach in North Yorkshire—or online—I’m here to walk alongside you as you navigate your grief with compassion, connection, and care.
