Explore the Celebration of Life

To a peaceful passing

As we move toward becoming an adult, they teach us to plan for our children’s college fund, retirement fund, setting up a will, and planning for funeral expenses. What is often not planned are our last wishes, especially as they move closer to death. It can be an uncomfortable conversation.

We rarely, if ever, think about the actual dying process. Where do you want to be, at the hospital, at home? Who do you want to be by your bedside?

The end is just as important as the beginning

What Is End of Life Doula?

An End of Life Doula provides non-medical support and is trained to care for the dying and their families physically, spiritually, and emotionally from diagnosis to end of life.

  • Regular visits
  • Create an environment to say good-bye
  • Create a ritual or other ceremonies based on your and the wishes of your loved ones
  • Provide support during the early grieving process
  • Supportive Services Include:

    “I create a space for an individual and their loved ones, to be emotionally supported through the dying process, based on a plan they have designed, as they continue their journey toward a peaceful transition.”

    We all deserve to die with dignity.

    Here is where I can guide both the dying and their loved ones.
