grief to grace
your 12 week journey with grief
Grief is not something to “get over.”
It is not a mistake.
It is a wise, wild river that asks us to walk with it — not around it.
This is an invitation into that walk.
What Is the Grief Integration Journey?
A 12-week private grief journey guided by Alyssa Rose — grief tender, ritualist, and somatic guide — weaving together:
One-to-one deep witnessing
Ritual and remembrance
Grief education and ancestral frameworks
Somatic practices and space for your sorrow to breathe
Rooted in the Six Gates of Grief as taught by Francis Weller, we explore:
Everything we love, we will lose
The places that have not known love
The sorrows of the world
What we expected and did not receive
Ancestral grief
The harm I have caused
We move slowly, sacredly — with breath, voice, prayer, and presence.
This is for you if...
You're carrying invisible grief (parenthood, identity, illness, isolation)
You've tried therapy but need something more soul-rooted
You long for sacred structure and deep companionship on the path
You’re spiritually open and committed to your inner work
What’s Included:
Twelve 60-minute private sessions (Zoom or Portland)
Personalized rituals, altar work, and ceremonial practice
Voice memo support between sessions
Grief integration journal + prompts
BONUS: 90-minute ritual session for early enrollment
Client Words:
“No one ever gave me the space to fall apart and be held as whole until I found my wholeness within myself. I found my resiliency, my trust, my longing, and my devotion.”
— Sarah J.
“I feel more alive. Grief no longer feels like drowning. It feels like a current I can swim in. It feels like a powerful expression of my love. It feels like a welcomed guest instead of a terrifying and reckless storm.”
— Mathew L.

ancestral grief
disconnection from self, from spirit, from the land, from one’s lineage

grief has many names
I find that grief can hide inside many other names, conditions, and experiences. Often, where there is anxiety, depression, addiction, or PTSD, there is also a weight that we carry that has lived within us - ungrieved, unseen, unknown. By creating spaces for deeper exploration, naming, expression, and witness, we can work on deep knots we haven’t yet been able to untie. By approaching ourselves with compassion and curiosity about what here is ungrieved, we can gain great clarity and reveal deeper truths about ourselves that support us on our road to wellness.
I’m Alyssa Rose. Let’s walk awhile in the wilderness.
Think of it this way. You are going on an incredible backpacking trip through the wilderness. I am your guide, I’ve hiked these landscapes before with many others, and though I have the map, the camp stove, the compass, and a sense of what we can expect, we walk together. I am the guide, I am NOT the path. The path is your grief and it is revealed as we walk together on these trails.
I carry the gear, but you lead the way and together we decide when to stop for a snack, stop to fill up fresh water from the creek, and stop to set up camp for the night.
I walk with you to witness the beauty and dangers of the trail together. We don’t know what we’ll see or what will come up on this journey. But, we’ll watch the rapidly changing weather together, deciding when to stop for the night, and how to shelter ourselves for the big storms.
You’ll learn to trust your body, your emotions, your spirit, and come to know your soul more intimately, trusting the guidance from the natural world as you explore yourself. You’ll find yourself resourced in new ways and learn how to hold yourself – and those you love – through the magnificence and tragedy of life and death.
