Welcome
I’m so grateful you’re here!
Grief, trauma, and life transitions can leave even the strongest people feeling disconnected from themselves.
I help caregivers, high-achievers, and professionals regulate their nervous systems, process grief, and rebuild identity after loss using neuroscience-backed emotional tools.
I am Cindi Dumond, RN. A certified Adult Chair® Master Coach for Healthcare Professionals - Compassion Fatigue & Emotional Regulation
My turning point
After my 23-year marriage ended in divorce, my life changed overnight.
Not long after, my daughter became seriously ill and eventually disabled.
I suddenly found myself navigating grief that wasn’t just about death, but about identity, loss of dreams, and the life I thought I would have.
That experience changed the direction of my work forever
I work best with people who:
• Are the strong one for everyone else
• Feel emotionally exhausted but keep pushing through
• Are navigating grief, loss, divorce, illness, or identity shifts
• Want practical tools to regulate emotions and move forward
Why I Do This Work
For years I watched people suffer in silence—grieving losses they felt they had to hide.
Grief is not weakness.
It’s a signal that something meaningful mattered.
My mission is to help people process those emotions safely so they can move forward with strength, clarity, and self-trust.
The Adult Chair® Model
This powerful emotional framework helps people understand three internal parts:
• The wounded child
• The adaptive protector
• The healthy adult
When you learn to operate from your “healthy adult,” emotional triggers lose their power.
This is the foundation of the work I guide clients through.
