She trains and supports other practitioners in becoming grief literate and in creating grief rituals of their own. Alyssa has a deep connection to Spirit and a strong reverence for the natural world, weaving together holistic care to craft potent spaces for individual and community grief healing.

Alyssa integrates the body, mind, and spirit into her life and work. She is passionate about creating a grief literate culture and empowering people to make spaces and practices for tending grief in order to build resilient modern villages through a foundation of belonging.
