Alyssa Canann

Working with people in grief and at end of life moves me in myriad ways. Grief and death invite us collectively and as individuals to plumb new depths of feeling, of connectedness, of what it means to be human.

Alyssa’s mother, father and husband died, separately, within the space of nineteen months. She is inspired by those willing to talk openly about death – from aspects mysterious to mundane – and by those who fiercely urge us to accept and honor the reality of grief.  […]

Katrina Mikiah

Almost 30 years ago, I had a counselor who, in her quiet presence, deep listening, and unconditional acceptance, gave more to me than did any other helping professional I have ever worked with. This early experience inspired me to study Co-Counseling, Compassionate Communication and, later, life coaching. After working as a life coach for a few years and after experiencing the death of a close friend who did not have adequate support at the end of her life, I felt increasingly drawn to end-of-life issues and became a hospice volunteer and later, a hospice volunteer coordinator and bereavement coordinator.  […]
