About the Author
Granville Angell is a licensed professional counselor, in private practice, with a quarter century of experience in his field. Beyond his formal education in psychology and counseling, early and continuing spiritual experiences have fueled a lifelong study of the transpersonal aspects of human development. His early love of flying led to his coming of age as a helicopter ambulance pilot in Vietnam. This, and other life experiences, became the foundation for personal and clinical in-depth study of the impact of loss and trauma and the part they can ultimately play in human spiritual development. During early December, 2001, he served as a Red Cross disaster mental health counselor at Ground Zero, the World Trade Center site. Storytelling, as a healing art, is a major focus in the author’s work. Beyond a love of Nature and all things spiritual, writing, counseling, gardening, and ultra-light flying occupy Granville’s interests. He and his wife, Alice, have lived the past twenty-one years on their wooded homestead in Lincoln County, western North Carolina, where they raised their two daughters.
