This is a book about dealing with the spiritual aspects of deep grief using the ancient tools of shamanism. From earliest times, human communities have turned to their shamans or medicine people for help in surviving the harsh realities of life.

In the 20-ish years that I have worked as a shamanic practitioner, I have experienced firsthand the power of the shamanic path to heal deep grief. In fact, my own profound loss led me into this work.


My youngest son Justin died at the age of 16 in 1993. Within the following two years, I also lost my dad, my grandmother, my business, my home and my car.  As the losses piled up, a series of synchronicities led me to discover shamanism and experience its healing power for myself.  
​Losing a child is a wound that never fully heals, but I can honestly say that my life today is richer, fuller and more joyful than ever. My first book, Life Between Falls: A Travelogue Through Grief and the Unexpected, tells the story of that healing journey.

My book is a practical guide for spiritually inclined people who have experienced any major loss, whether it’s the death of a loved one, a divorce, miscarriage, disability or other life-changing event. It is designed to help them attend to their grief with intention and awareness. The book includes stories and case studies as well as many guided journeys, practices and ceremonies to bring meaning and richness to the process. I also envision other shamanic practitioners and mental health practitioners using the contents of this book in their own healing work with clients.
