I am a cancer survivor, hospice volunteer (Pathways Home Care and Hospice) husband, father, and devotee of the shakuhachi (Japanese bamboo flute) and Native American Flute. In 2009 I was named by the Hospice Volunteer Association “Volunteer of the Year.”


For more than 25 years I taught, provided therapy, researched, and published in the areas of learning, change, loss, and end of life issues.


I have published six books, written numerous articles and delivered over 100 lectures and workshops throughout the United States, Latin America and Asia.


My books have been translated into Chinese, Indonesian, and Portuguese. Cu
rrently, I write, consult on issues of change, offer training to hospices, and lead workshops for adults whose lives were suddenly and traumatically changed.


I am currently working on Recovering Joy: A Positive Approach to Regaining Emotions Following a Loss. It examines losses and how to recover from them in the areas of identity, death of a pet, relationships, occupation, abilities, domiciles, objects, aspirations, and death of a loved one.


I’m also working on Can You Work? A novel which traces a man’s life and the choices he made as a child in Buchenwald through his last few hours in a San Francisco hospice.



On a limited basis I offer end of life coaching with out charge. Please contact me through my email address: stan@stangoldbergwriter.com
