Every Type Of Loss Deserves Care
Grief isn’t just about losing a loved one. Whether you're mourning a death and navigating the secondary losses that follow—like changes in identity, relationships, or home—or facing non-death losses like divorce, estrangement, or caregiving burnout, Navigating Loss offers compassionate guidance, personal stories, and practical tools for every step of the journey.
Written by Heather Stang, a grief expert and thanatologist with deep personal experience, this new book, coming November 12, 2024, provides thoughtful practices to honor every type of loss—because no two grief journeys are the same, and each deserves special care.

[Heather's] work is thoughtful, focused and well researched. I trust her to work with our donor families because of her compassion and openness about her own grief journey. She knows what she’s talking about, but more importantly she helps you find what works best for you.
