Lisa White is a Licensed Master Social Worker with graduate training in both clinical and macro social work. She holds a master’s degree and national certification in thanatology—the study of death, dying, and bereavement—as well as a graduate certificate in gerontology. Her areas of expertise include grief support, complicated grief assessment, and advance life planning—helping individuals prepare for and navigate some of life’s most difficult transitions.

​

With more than a decade of experience, Lisa has supported individuals and families facing serious illness, bereavement, and end-of-life decisions. She has worked extensively in grief and loss care, created advance care planning programs for nonprofit organizations, and guided hundreds of people through thoughtful, values-based end-of-life planning conversations.

​

Lisa is also a passionate educator and advocate. She has trained hospice volunteers, presented at statewide conferences, and championed inclusive, person-centered approaches to end-of-life care and grief support. Known for her warm, grounded presence, she creates space for people to explore both death-related and non-death losses with dignity, honesty, and compassion.
