HELLO, I’M RACHEL NELSON

I’m a certified Death Doula and Grief Educator. I spent over 15 years in the yoga & meditation industry before shifting into grief and death work. My work is heavily influenced by my own losses and grief, the two big catalysts being the death of my best friend in 2004, and the stillbirth of my first son in 2015.

I call on my own experiences as well as continuing education and training within the grief and death workspaces to help others learn to navigate their own grief.

Grief Educator Training with David Kessler

  • “ I had been curious about working through some unprocessed grief that I had been carrying on my shoulders and in my heart since childhood. After our first hour-long consultation, I knew she was the right fit for me. She is intuitive, compassionate, and exceptional at holding space. I feel safe enough with her to dig deep and uncover the roots of my unprocessed grief and sufficiently supported emotionally to work through or “metabolize” it all. We’ve been working together now for 6 months and my life will never be the same. I no longer feel like my pieces are separate. The acknowledgment and acceptance of my pain have made me whole again and I am eternally grateful.”
