Welcome! I’m mai.

I’m a writer, facilitator, & grief worker living in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

I support groups, organizations, and individuals to heal and create through loss, death, and change.

I work with people who are yearning to live and create in ways that heal themselves, their communities, and the earth.

Yet, they feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, ​and alone, often because they are carrying a lifetime of personal and collective loss, and generations of unprocessed pain.

Offerings for Groups & Individuals

    Grief Circles & Group Support

If you want to transform loss into healing and liberation…

If you want a conscious relationship with life, death, and the earth... 

If you have a deep yearning to express yourself…

If you want to bring what’s in your heart out into the world​...

I would be honored to support you.
