First of all, Functional Grieving takes the stance that peace is not only attainable in grief,

• it is readily at hand and,

• delivered by you from your story

There is an immeasurable peace experienced with each & every verbal and unspoken reference to connection with a loved one.

The position we take comes from the founder, Carrie Wipfli, who has lovingly built her Grief Coaching practice as a ‘center of peace from connection’, which she created from her own grief experience after the loss of her daughter, Patricia. Much like grief is unique to all, such is also the case with peace.

Functional Grieving provides the opportunity to reset focus on connection for peace in grief. We take an unorthodox approach that encourages one to hold on to their loved one(s) and build a keen awareness of what they are telling themselves about their connection with them. To be clear, the connection each person holds with their loved one is taken as ever-lasting (it is constant throughout life and death). Connection is spoken of in what we tell ourselves and others. It is lived each and every moment in everything.

Functional Grieving thinks of grief as a higher state of being, whereby each individual is hyperaware of, and hypersensitive to, their connection with departed loved ones. We see pain as a special entity which is approached as elevated reasoning through love. It is to be cherished with utmost respect, and not to be dismissed, nor reckoned with.

Functional Grieving offers a groundbreaking approach to grief through innovative awareness strategies for your unique balance, wholeness, and lasting peace by approaching grief by never letting your loved one go. We are here to witness a precise definition of your connection.

Find YOUR Peace! It’s already there.

Functional Grieving accepts the consistent presence of connectivity

• for peace,

• for highlighting the absolute constant, the necessity, and personal awareness of it.

In particular, the value of your expression of connection (the desire to talk about it) is considered unequivocally pertinent to well-being and wholeness.

You are not alone! I ‘get’ it and I’m here for you.

Functional Grieving knows that all emotional, mental, sensorial, spiritual, and physical elements in grief are constant, intertwined, and wholly interactive. We accept them as the foundation of all connections.

The holistic approach we take is through utmost respect and reverence of the innumerable points of view that are experienced with grief. We offer simplification via logical & somatic reasoning, that for which is innate and undertaken by each individual in their own way.
