There is a kind of loss that few people truly understand.

A parent, child, grandchild, sibling, or other beloved family member may still be alive, yet absent from your life. The relationship may be fractured, severed, or painfully out of reach. You may find yourself carrying grief that has no funeral, no closure, and often very little understanding from the people around you.

This workshop was created for those navigating the heartbreak of parental alienation, family estrangement, and ambiguous loss.

During our 90 minutes together, I will share portions of my own journey to help you understand that you are not alone. We will explore the emotional, physical, and spiritual impact of this experience, as well as what healing can realistically look like moving forward.

What You'll Learn

✨ Understanding the Loss

• What parental alienation is—and what it is not
• The difference between alienation and legitimate estrangement
• Common tactics and behaviors often seen in alienation dynamics
• The impact on targeted parents and other family members
• Why this form of grief can feel so overwhelming and consuming 
• I will share my personal story of parental alienation & estrangement

✨Why It Hurts So Deeply

• The nature of ambiguous loss
• Disenfranchised grief and invisible suffering
• Why friends, family, and even professionals often misunderstand this experience
• The emotional, physical, and health consequences that can arise from prolonged estrangement
• What healing actually looks like

✨Common Mistakes People Make

• Becoming consumed by the search for answers
• Losing oneself in the role of the rejected parent or family member
• Waiting for reconciliation before allowing life to continue
• Isolating from support and community

✨This Workshop Is For You If:

• You are experiencing parental alienation or family estrangement
• You feel isolated and misunderstood in your grief
• You want a deeper understanding of what has happened
• You are looking for hope without false promises
• You are ready to begin reclaiming your life, your peace, and your future

While I cannot promise reconciliation, I can offer something equally important: understanding, validation, education, and a path forward.

You do not have to carry this invisible loss alone.
