Virginia A. Simpson, Ph.D. FT, is a Bereavement Care Specialist with more than 30 years of experience working with the dying and grieving.  She holds a Fellowship in Thanatology from the Association for Death Education & Counseling (ADEC), and is the Executive Counseling Director for hundreds of funeral homes throughout the United States and Canada.

In 2016, Dr. Simpson’s first book, The Space Between: A Memoir of Mother-Daughter Love at the End of Life was published. It has won First Place for best memoir from the Sarton Story Circle, Readers View Awards (also Best book from West Pacific), and Independent Press Award, won a Reader’s Favorite bronze medal, and was a Finalist in the 11th Annual National Indie Excellence Book Awards, 5th Annual Beverly Hills Book Awards, and 2017 International Book Awards.

“The Space Between is a beautifully written story that reads like a novel….As a mental health specialist, I know that this book is an important conversation-starter for families who are brave enough to use it as the tool it can be for them. A MUST for book clubs!  ~C. Jaser-Goulard, R.N., Ph.D.
