Bereavement/grief is very individualized. It is unique to YOU. There is no magic potion, but with coaching, you can learn how to find some comfort as you recover and learn to live again. These "tools" are your "tools" based on your own experiences.

Josiah
Bereavement Counseling
Carol was wonderfully empathetic and helped me to vent my grief and learn to focus on how much joy my little girl brought me every day. My memories are worth cherishing, and Carol helped me to bridge the gap between raw pain and bittersweet remembrance. If you need someone to listen to you, validate your feelings, and force you to think about the love you have as a positive thing, then I can’t recommend her enough. More...

My review rating for Carol Kalnow is a five star rating. Carol has been a tremendous help counseling for last six months with coping skills, coping mechanisms and overall guidance and support.
I extremely enjoyed and looked forward to our weekly sessions. In addition to my therapist and Griefshare sessions the past year, Carol has been a tremendous listener as well as provided me with advice to cope with the loss of my beloved husband.
I really appreciated and highly recommend Carol for those who have lost a loved one!
Thank you Carol and look forward to our continued sessions!

Barbara Schade
Bereavement Counseling
The tools Carol suggested helped me so much. The book “The Light Between Us” made me realize that my daughter was still here with us. Also writing her story to share with her children made me feel that she will always be remembered what a beautiful person she was, both inside & out. We all miss her greatly but Carol’s words & wisdom were comforting for me during this terrible time. She was so understanding & comforting. She was very easy to share my feelings with. I really appreciated her help. Thank you🥰 More...

Danielle McDearman
Bereavement Counseling
Carol has been a tremendous resource and extremely compassionate. I have never felt so at ease talking with any counselor right up front but Carol is very easygoing and empathetic. We quite frankly have a lot in common so she has been able to quickly understand everything I have shared with her. We developed an instant camaraderie and I am grateful to have found her! More...

Bereavement Counseling
Working with Carol was a much more positive experience than I ever could have imagined. She is a thoughtful, compassionate counselor who helped me to realize that grief will never be something you just "get over" as it has many, many facets. She taught me that it is ok take a step back and have to cry but that doesn't mean I have to stay there paralyzed. She helped me to learn to stop and be present. She showed me that by taking small steps and doing things for myself and others it will help me to move forward and look ahead with less pain. And more importantly, not to be afraid and remember that my loved one is not lost. He will always there within me, never to be forgotten. I feeI I can always reach out to Carol if I need help. I am very thankful I found her through this website. Who knew? More...

She gave positive advice, addressed concerns, made me feel like no matter what I was going through after my wife’s passing was all normal responses to the loss of a loved one. I will call on her again if I ever need help again More...

Bereavement Counseling
I would have given Carol a 10+ if I could. I contacted a few people on Bark and what drew me to her was her email. It just spoke to me.
I was having a really hard time, my husband of 42 yrs had passed and I wasn't able to work, go anywhere or hardly even eat or sleep. She immediately gave me a few tools to help.
During the months I've worked with her, she has been supportive, listened, shared some of her own journey and really been there for me.
I have recommended her to a number of people. She has worked with me regarding payment, since my income had really taken a hit. She is really special.

Bereavement Counseling
Carol is an amazing coach who can be tough and tender all at the same time. She has helped me and my family understand the issues that each of us have with the grieving process. She allows us to each find our own path while helping us understand we are in this journey together. I said that I didn’t need a coach-it was “them”, but I was wrong. Carol has been hard when I needed her to be and understanding when even I didn’t know I needed it. I would highly recommend her as a grief coach! More...

Kathy Byrne
I came across Carol during a time in my life when I was really struggling. She listened, shared wisdom and gave me some incredible guidance to get me through the rough patches. She has been through many of the same things that I was dealing with. I am now equipped with amazing tools that I carry with me when I need them, and if I feel that I need a little extra help - I check in with Carol for a "tune-up". She is always there when I need her, I cannot thank (or recommend) her enough! More...

Maralee
I have known Carol for many years and find her to be an empathetic, compassionate, warm and kind human being surpassed by none. She lost her beloved husband and truly understands the pain and excruciating sense of loss one feels when losing a loved one. I cannot imagine anyone better fit to work with others during a period of grief and also to help others make positive lifestyle changes. She is truly a gem and I highly recommend her as a grief and lifestyle coach. You will feel blessed to have her in your life. More...
