About Your Hosts

Jessica Johansson, M.Div, a UVM-trained end-of-life doula and companion animal end-of-life doula, ordained interfaith minister, and death educator, brings many layers of knowledge and experience to the workshop. With a deep understanding of the human-animal bond and the intricate dynamics of grief, Jessica is dedicated to helping individuals find peace and healing after the loss of a companion animal. In addition to her doula work, she is the host of the Greater Monadnock Region Death Cafe, Volunteer Coordinator and Burial Team member at Life Forest (the first cemetery in the country to allow pets and people to be buried together), and a volunteer for Monadnock Kitty Rescue & Adoption.
