Dancing In the Darkness

Adults cannot change the reality of a death occurring in a child’s life. However, with the right tools they can play a powerful role in shaping the story of the child’s grief experience and help them thrive in life.

Andrea is a Registered Psychotherapist whose passion lies in helping families and communities support people of all ages who are grieving the illness or death of someone close to them. As a Registered Nurse with a Masters degree in Thanatology and years of nursing and counselling experience in Canada and abroad, Andrea brings to her work a rare mixture of medical and psychosocial expertise. She has worked at the Dr. Jay Children’s Grief Centre where she was the director of Camp Erin Toronto. Andrea developed the 5 Day Certificate Program in Children’s Grief and Bereavement at SickKids CCMH, and was a founding member of Ontario’s Children and Youth Grief Network. Andrea is a member of the International Work Group for Dying, Death, and Bereavement (IWG), as well as a member of the clinical team at Canadian Virtual Hospice. Andrea, the co-owner of Andrea Warnick Consulting, lives with her family in Guelph Ontario.
