PRIVATE GRIEF TENDING
For the places that need deeper holding.
There are some griefs that need more space.
More time.
More tenderness.
More witnessing.
Private grief tending offers a place to bring what feels too vulnerable, heavy, complicated, or personal to carry alone or bring into community right away
GRIEF CHANGES OVER TIME. SUPPORT CAN TOO.
GRIEF IS NOT A SINGULAR EXPERIENCE.
Some seasons ask for understanding, some for community, some for ritual.
And some ask for a deeper form of accompaniment.
Private grief tending offers customized support for women navigating loss, caregiving, identity shifts, life transitions, complicated grief, anticipatory grief, and the many ways sorrow lives within the body.

The Threshold
For women standing in the middle of profound change.
Threshold seasons often involve both grief and becoming.

The Long Hold

Some grief can’t be rushed. Our stories need time.

Together we create a rhythm of support that honours both grief and life.
Best suited for:
→ long-standing grief

“I didn’t realize how much I was holding until it finally began to move.
Bindi’s presence made it safe to feel what I hadn’t been able to touch for years.”
— Private grief tending participant
“What I found in these sessions wasn’t advice or fixing— it was companionship.
I left each one feeling lighter, more whole, and strangely grateful for my grief.”

BINDI— THE GRIEF TENDRESS™
IS A GRIEF GUIDE AND RITUAL FACILITATOR DEVOTED TO RESTORING GRIEF AS A SACRED AND NECESSARY PART OF LIFE.
Her work is shaped by a lifetime of personal loss and deep reckonings with sorrow, rupture, caregiving, survival, and becoming— experiences that prepared her to walk alongside others carrying profound grief with tenderness and care.
Bindi creates grounded, embodied, trauma-informed spaces where grief is welcomed rather than pathologized, and where women are supported in remaining connected to life while carrying what they love and what they have lost.
She’s trained in grief ritual facilitation and grief tending through the Darkwoods of Grief lineage inspired by Francis Weller, is a Grief Recovery Specialist through the Grief Recovery Institute, a certified women’s somatic educator, and a certified ancestral healing guide.
Through workshops, circles, retreats, ritual spaces, and 1:1 grief tending, Bindi helps women develop a more compassionate and sustainable relationship with grief, one that allows sorrow to be honestly tended while creating greater capacity for vitality, meaning, connection, and aliveness over time.
GRIEF DOES NOT NEED TO BE CARRIED PERFECTLY.
