For nearly 20 years Suzi Smith has dedicated her life to supporting individuals navigating the profound pain of loss. Her journey into bereavement work began after the devastating loss of her son from suicide inspiring her to provide comfort and hope to others facing similar heartbreak. While she initially focused on helping parents who had lost children, Suzi soon expanded her practice to include individuals grieving a variety of losses, including the loss of parents, siblings, spouses, and even our most beloved pets. In fact, much of her practice centers around the loss of these angels.
Having experienced the loss of her mother at the age of 17, her father, three siblings, and her son, Suzi brings a depth of empathy and understanding that only someone who has walked this path can offer. As a Grief Educator, she believes deeply in the power of peer-to-peer support, creating a safe space where individuals can share their stories and begin to heal.
Suzi’s career began in a very different field—kitchen design—but her personal journey through loss led her to this work as a way to honor her son’s memory. Today, her practice stands as a testament to the healing power of connection, offering solace, strength, and hope to those who need it most.
