About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Founder, TwoCan Retreats
Stacy identifies as both a grief tender and a joy seeker — continually learning how to carry what life brings while living an embodied, wholehearted life.
Stacy is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California, and the Santa Barbara Regional Director for the Waves of Grief Collective™. For more than 25 years, she has supported individuals, couples, and families navigating grief, trauma, divorce, and other major life transitions. Her work is grounded in mindfulness, self-compassion, and a deep respect for the complexity of being human.
Over time, her professional path evolved from divorce and co-parenting work into deeper exploration of grief, embodiment, and community healing. She has pursued advanced training in mindfulness and self-compassion, grief and loss, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and conscious dying, and serves as an end-of-life doula in Santa Barbara.
Stacy believes grief and joy are not mutually exclusive, but companions. Her own experiences of loss, along with a deep connection to nature and community, continue to shape the spaces she facilitates.
In 2018, Stacy and her husband Mike began leading retreats in Costa Rica, creating environments where people can reconnect with themselves, with nature, and with one another. At home in Santa Barbara, they host Waves of Grief™ circles and community gatherings that foster belonging and shared humanity.
While Stacy is a licensed therapist, she does not provide psychotherapy during TwoCan Retreats. The retreats are educational and experiential spaces designed to support reflection, connection, and growth.

Absolutely Amazing Host
Stacy does it all!! She is organized from the moment you inquire and makes sure everyone is taken care of.
Everything from the place we stayed, the women who cooked for us, the teachers, the surf instructors, the beach cleanup crew….they all are hand picked and each provide excellent loving offerings.
Stacy holds a very compassionate, fun and loving space for all of us to show up exactly as we are.
Thank you Stacy for all of that you do and for your generous heart.

The BEST!
It’s hard to even put into words how much I admire Stacy and Mike. Their mission and purpose is so beautiful it makes you want to support them in every way! Their kindness and dedication made a huge impact on the energy and flow of the retreat, I couldn’t imagine being lead by anyone else. I also feel like they will remain a part of my life for years to come <3 they’re like the sweet Auntie and Uncle I never had! You would definitely be missing out if you didn’t experience one of their amazing offerings! Eternally grateful for them!!!

Insightful
Stacy McCrory, MA, LMFT, is a very kind and knowledgeable person. She makes herself accessible and can gauge when a person wants to talk. When she spoke with me, she did so with much wisdom in addition to a good sense of humor. She proved me with valuable and helpful guidance to help me move forward in my life.
