Francis Weller
Francis Weller is a psychotherapist and author with over 30 years of experience in grief work, best known for The Wild Edge of Sorrow and his concept of the "five gates of grief." His writing and workshops treat grief as a communal, ritual practice rather than a private problem to solve. His work has drawn attention from figures like Anderson Cooper, who has spoken publicly about working with Weller on his own grief. He also offers mentoring, online programs, and in-person retreats on soul work and sorrow.
