Always on a journey

          Hi, i´m Tanja. I am a certified grief counsellor based in Cologne, Germany. My interest in bereavement support is the result of being raised in a death-positive household, a desire to live a more examined life, and various experiences volunteering with those dealing with loss.

With my work I want to support healing processes in our cultural relationship to death and to explore not just the light, but the darker parts of life. I bring warmth and curiosity to especially difficult situations and hope that you'll allow me to guide you in this deep and meaningful work. I founded this project as I believe that hiking in nature can help people of all ages learn coping strategies, build confidence, and improve their self-esteem, which are all tools needed for a healthy grief journey.

As a hiking and outdoor enthusiast I can often be found in the woods. Currently I am undertaking a training as a nature and wilderness tour guide in the German woods together with Wildniswandern.
