For Adults After A Death

 

Your life changed in an instant from the death of a loved one. Your heart is broken and you're distraught. You're barely hanging on. You go through the motions, go to work, take care of your children. Sometimes, you may feel like dying too. You may not know how you'll manage. Getting support is important so that you don't feel so alone. Your friends may not know what to say. You may keep a mask on when you're in public, but underneath, your spirit feels crushed.

Let me help you to cope.

Sure, there is no right or wrong way to grieve.

But, there are better ways of coping.

Let me help you to learn more effective coping skills.

You are worth it.

I began to see Sharon a few months after my husband unexpectedly passed away. She helped me to break down all of the different emotions that I was experiencing and address each one in a healthy way. I appreciate Sharon’s caring, thoughtful and practical perspective towards dealing with grief. She also helped me to sort out all of the life difficulties that come along with suddenly being without my partner and becoming a single parent. When people ask me if grief therapy helped, I tell them that it was truly a “game changer” for me. Sharon helped me to peel back all of the difficult layers of grief so I am able to move forward.

Since seeing Sharon, it is the first time in six years that I am able to talk about my sister without crying.

I never talked about the suicide death of my mother until coming to see you. It was a relief to let go of feeling so ashamed and angry. I don’t feel stuck anymore.

For Children After a Death

When a close family member tragically passes away, leaving a young family to grapple with profound grief, it can be an incredibly challenging and bewildering time, especially for the children involved.

That's where our mission comes in - to provide crucial digital support which is readily accessible from the comfort of home or on the go, to help you and your young ones ones navigate the many ups and downs of the mourning process. Through story, comforting songs and activities I help them navigate the different thoughts, emotions and behaviors that are part of grief.

With the heavy weight of losing a beloved family member bearing down on your hearts, I understand that reaching out for assistance can be a daunting first step. But together, I can guide you through the difficult path of adjusting to this unwanted new normal, equipping your children with the emotional learning, communication skills, and coping mechanisms needed to healthily process their grief.

Through our specialized programming, I aim to empower young grievers ages 6-12, teaching them constructive ways to express their complex emotions surrounding the loss. I'll foster forgiveness - for themselves, for the departed, for the challenging circumstances - which can be a vital part of the healing journey. And I'll help build resilience, giving kids the tools to move forward while still honoring the memory of their loved one.

Alongside this crucial emotional support, I'll introduce Melodee Roo the Tree Kangaroo and her Jungle Friends, a cast of caring Wantok characters who can become trusted companions for your children during this difficult time, offering comfort, understanding, and a sense of community that can be integral to their personal healing process.

With my guidance, your family won't have to face this tragedy alone - I'll be there every step of the way, providing the specialized digital resources you need to weather the storm of grief and emerge stronger on the other side.

When a child experiences the profound pain and heartache of loss, it can feel overwhelming and isolating.

However, this inspiring online program offers a path forward, guiding young ones step-by-step as they learn to cope and transform their grief into a source of power and confidence. At the heart of this transformative journey are 12 interactive e-books that use captivating storytelling, insightful videos, and engaging "Roo-Tivities" to help children creatively express their thoughts and emotions.

Through these multifaceted resources, kids discover they are not alone in their suffering - rather, they are part of a supportive community navigating the harsh realities of grief together. As they move through the program, the once-sharp sting of loss begins to soften, soothed by the sweet comfort of love and the healing power of friendship.

Further aiding this process are the program's heart-warming songs, written by renowned composer David Friedman, whose musical contributions to beloved Disney films and Broadway shows have long captivated audiences. With the tender, warm, and clear vocals of Sara Vincent as Melodee Roo, these songs gently wrap around a child's broken heart, providing solace and inspiration as they courageously embark on their journey of healing and self-discovery.

Ultimately, this holistic, multimedia approach empowers young learners to not only cope with grief, but to channel their pain into newfound strength, resilience, and self-assurance.

Testimonials about Melodee Roo & The Wantoks Too! Letters For Grieving Children Like You

from parent, Lisa L.

"From start to finish, I was excited and amazed by the quality of the writing, the engaging characters, and the powerful message you so eloquently convey. What an exceptional tool for families who are grieving. You capture the essence of what it means to experience loss with such beauty, compassion, and even humor. The music component adds so much to your product. The lyrics are so meaningful, and sung by Sara Vincent in such a beautiful way, that it brought me to tears...not because I found the songs sad, but because the music provides a real sense of comfort."

From parent, Nancy D.

"How did you know how we felt? It was right there, in writing. We felt understood - to know that we're not alone. Kacey and I both loved the Roo-Tivitie to use the heart stone to put all her sadness into. We use a special prism that was her Grampy's. It was very healing to read together and even though it brought up different feelings at times for both of us, the story and Roo-Tivities helped us to move through it. We felt better afterward."

From parent, Samantha F.

"I wanted to tell you that we got a chance to read the first letter yesterday. My son cried multiple times and opened up about how much he missed his dad. He’s done that occasionally but he’s not much of a talker so I think the letter we read really helped to draw out conversation with him in a meaningful way. Thank you so much."
