ICF LEVEL 2 · LIFE, GRIEF AND END OF LIFE COACH TRAINING · 2026
Most coaches learn the craft first and meet grief later, in a session they weren't ready for.
Here you learn them together, because that is how they arrive. Life, grief and end of life coaching, one training, two certifications. You leave able to stay with someone through any part of a life, including the end of it.
Coaches come to this work from every tradition, and from none.
The curriculum is Dr. Don Eisenhauer's, MCC, founder of Coaching at End of Life. He built this training. Stacey Cook, MCC, teaches it.
Live Online Classes begin October 9, 2026 on Fridays from 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM CT
