Milestones & Transitions
Judaism encourages us to celebrate the important moments in our lives and to mark particular milestones. I would love to work with you or your family on crafting a traditional or modern, customizable ceremony or ritual to celebrate
- coming of age / B-Mitzvah / Adult B-Mitzvah
- Graduation
- A milestone birthday or anniversary
- Adoption
- Retirement
- Other significant moments & milestones
Using Jewish symbols, prayers & rituals to mark intentional or impending transitions can be a powerful way to affirm a changing identity.
I am available to help you craft or lead you through a mikvah ritual or customizable ceremony to affirm
- gender affirming transitions (ex. coming-out, name-changes, surgery)
- transitions around marital/relationship status (ex. separation, divorce, reunification)
- Transitions in the life of your family (ex. adoption, bringing together a blended family, becoming empty nesters)
- Transitions in your profession / career
- Aging
If you are navigating a distressing diagnosis, have recently recovered from an illness or injury, or are struggling with grief, mental illness, job loss, a difficult time in your life, or even a broken heart – the Jewish ritual of mikvah immersion, or a customizable healing ceremony may bring powerful comfort, calm and/or affirmation. I am available to guide you through choosing a Jewish prayer or ritual that can anchor you at a time when you may be feeling adrift.
I am also available to support you in using Jewish texts, teachings and rituals in service of repairing a broken or strained relationship .
