WELCOME,
to Essentially Loved, a safe space for those navigating grief and seeking deeper connection with Jesus through creativity and compassion. I'm Kimber, a grief educator, Spiritual Director, and fellow traveler on the holistic journey of healing and understanding.
My own path has been marked by profound losses and periods of spiritual dryness. I've experienced firsthand the weight of grief, having walked through multiple losses, including the passing of my husband to cancer. In these seasons, I've also confronted patterns of shame, learning to navigate them with honesty and grace. It was during these times of deep personal struggle that I discovered the power of connecting with people and with Jesus in creative and authentic ways. This journey has shaped my approach to spiritual direction, emphasizing compassion, understanding, and a commitment to holistic healing.
If you find yourself overwhelmed by grief or feeling numb in your spiritual walk (or crawl), I invite you to book an appointment with me. Together, we'll step into a gentle and kind process of discovery, exploring creative ways to reconnect with Jesus and find movement amidst the roadblocks. Whether you're in the thick of loss, seeking to break free from shame, or longing for deeper connection, I'm here to hold space with empathy and insight. My belief is that you can read and gain head knowledge but it is in the practicing that you truly discover change. Together we will find ways to create this.
At Essentially Loved, we take a holistic approach, recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit in your journey towards wholeness. Join us on this transformative path of faith, love, and hope, where every step forward is a testament to your resilience and God's abiding grace. Sprinkled throughout our website, you'll also find some recipes and practical ideas that support a natural, holistic lifestyle.
Credentials: I am a certified Christian Grief Coach (CCGC) with specialized training in Somatic Approaches to Healing Trauma and completion of NICABM's certification programs on Trauma and Grief. My ministry experience includes leadership roles in women's ministry, outreach, children's ministry, and facilitating Bible studies. Together with my husband, I've organized outreach trips to Kenya and Tanzania, where we founded Pamoja Love—a nonprofit dedicated to building homes for widows, developing mentorship programs, business start-ups, and supporting families through healthcare and their children’s education. These experiences have allowed me to learn even more about the beauty of God’s love reaching in to the hard spaces of life, and the impact it has in bringing hope to those who are hurting.
