Pastoral Counseling: Including End of Life Transitional Counseling and Coping with Chronic Illness

Coquelicot works with people who would like to generally evolve further along their spiritual path or are wrestling with the meaning of life because they are dealing with major life transitions that require a spiritual and larger overarching perspective.

Third Force – The overarching presence that guides our work.

To every session, Coquelicot brings her intuition and her vast knowledge base. Then she gets out of the way to let something else arise; she makes room for a larger knowledge, and invites grace to enter. Coquelicot has a capacity for deep listening, listening beyond the limits of her personality and academic learning. By dropping and melting into something much larger than herself, she becomes simultaneously a student and teacher, a facilitator and a catalyst. From there she supports people to free themselves from the internal obstacles that block their innate ability to access this source directly.

Major Life Transition Counseling:

Major life transitions – birth, marriage, the death of a loved one, divorce, a health crisis – can stretch us beyond the limits of our known capacities. They can leave us floundering and can bring up a crisis of faith that leaves us questioning our place in the world. When our lives are disrupted by extreme stress it can be difficult to assess our needs and limitations – we don’t always see what we’re missing. At such times a fresh perspective can be invaluable.

In addition to her many years of formal education in a variety of healing traditions, Coquelicot has, like many of us negotiated a challenging early childhood. Her next teacher arrived in the form of a chronic life-threatening illness that persisted for several decades. Higher education appears in many guises, which Coquelicot came to understand even more deeply as she tended to many people close to her through their living into dying process and death.

Through each transition she has honed her skills and developed new ones, learning to rest in the mutuality of her inner and outer resources. For all people seeking help in deep transition, Coquelicot provides her precise and grounded perspective to help you see a wider range of possibilities, and engage life with an expanded repertoire of responses through deepening each person’s unique relationship to third force awareness.

End of Life Transition Counseling:

If you are facing severe chronic illness or grappling with end-of-life logistics or concerns and questions of a spiritual nature, I can both advise and support you along that path.

“I long ago ceased seeing myself as a victim. I’ve come to embrace every challenge that life presents as an invitation to grow stronger, more resilient, and increasingly openhearted. It gives me deep satisfaction to help others find more space and joy in life.”
