Grief work

For the past 10 years, I have been studying with author Stephen Jenkinson in his Orphan Wisdom School. Stephen is author of Die Wise: A Manifesto for Sanity and Soul and Come of Age: The Case for Elderhood in a Time of Trouble. He has brought me face to face with important and challenging questions, the kinds of questions that can alter the course of a person's life.

I remain convinced at this point that we, in the western world, are living in a death phobic and grief illiterate culture and that the consequences of doing so reach deep into every aspect of our lives and impact every decision we make.

I have over the past few years expanded my services to include grief and dying. These sessions are for those who want to learn grief and want to learn dying. They are for those who recognize the deep wisdom in not collapsing into isolation when called upon by these deities. They are for those wanting to approach grief and dying not merely as psychological or metabolic events but as deep mysteries to be honoured and granted a place in one’s life.
