Alyssa Canann

Alyssa is an ICF Professional Certified Coach, End of Life & Grief Coach, Death Midwife, and Facilitator with the Identity Development Institute. She holds a B.A. from the University of California, Irvine.

As a coach and facilitator, she is intrigued by what lies beneath the stories of who we are, what we want and why we are here.

In working with others, she strives to welcome all experiences, all emotions, all expression, trusting that we each contain the inner resources to meet whatever arises with kindness, curiosity and compassion.

She is particularly inspired by those willing to talk openly about death – from aspects mysterious to mundane – and by those who fiercely urge us to accept and honor the inevitability of loss and grief.

"iD work is shifting the shape of my identity. I am more present to myself and to my life."
