Welcome, I’m Susan Rardon Rose

Grief Support Coach, Mental Health Educator, and School Counselor in Kentucky

Rooted in Kentucky, Working with Heart Across the State

Kentucky isn’t just where I live. It’s where I’ve built a life of love, loss, learning, and healing. I’ve walked alongside students in Kentucky schools. I’ve grieved my own husband in this same soil. That’s why my work as a school counselor in Kentucky, grief coach, and mental health educator is so deeply personal.

From Jefferson County to rural districts, I’ve partnered with schools, families, and individuals who want more than just services. They want real support from someone who understands what they’re going through. If that’s you, I’d be honored to help.

Supporting Kentucky Schools with Counseling, SEL, and Trauma-Informed Training

Education is more than curriculum. It’s emotional safety, connection, and care. As a school counselor in Kentucky, I work with educators and school leaders to create systems that support both students and staff.

Here’s how I help schools across the state:

  • SEL training for teachers in Kentucky focused on classroom connection
  • Trauma-informed school training to build emotionally safe learning environments
  • School counseling consulting services in Kentucky for scalable student support systems
  • Services as an educational consultant for school counselors working to strengthen their roles
  • Ongoing work as a school counselor, coach, and mentor, helping counseling staff feel confident and supported

All of this supports the foundation for stronger academic growth in children, healthier school cultures, and more effective support for students who need it most.

Grief Coaching That Meets You with Compassion and Direction

Grief doesn’t follow rules. It’s deeply personal, sometimes invisible, and always heavy. That’s why I offer grief coaching services in Kentucky that are grounded in understanding and real-life experience, not just theory.

These are just a few of the ways I walk with individuals and families through grief:

  • Grief support for widows in Kentucky, especially those navigating long-term or sudden loss
  • Faith and grief recovery coaching rooted in personal belief systems
  • Sessions with a grief and trauma education consultant in Kentucky for schools or families
  • Support for those facing spiritual questions through Christian grief counseling in Kentucky
  • Specialized grief coaching for women facing layered emotional loss
  • Personalized help through every step of the grief journey

As your grief support coach, I don’t ask you to “move on.” Instead, we move forward, together, carrying your love with you.

Mental Health Coaching in Kentucky for When Life Feels Heavy

Sometimes you’re not in crisis, but you’re not okay either. Mental health coaching in Kentucky offers space to unpack that middle ground. This is a place to process, reflect, and move toward balance.

I offer:

  • Personalized mental health coaching for professionals, parents, and caregivers
  • Online mental health counseling–style support for those preferring virtual sessions
  • Coaching for mental health that bridges emotional overwhelm and everyday function
  • Guidance that blends experience in mental health education in schools and personal care
  • Stress-management tools, boundary setting, and emotional regulation strategies

This work is not therapy. It’s intentional, goal-oriented support for people who want help coping, reflecting, and growing through what life brings.

Creating School Environments That Heal and Grow

If you’re part of a Kentucky school team looking for deeper emotional wellness and stronger student connection, I can help. Through a mix of professional development and customized planning, I support:

  • Mental health workshops for schools in Kentucky
  • Training in school counseling services that support the whole child
  • Coaching for counselors and educators navigating complex school needs
  • Integration of social-emotional learning into school routines and classroom practices

Whether you’re a school leader, classroom teacher, or part of student services, we can build sustainable wellness systems together.
