My goal is to help you re-imagine Death as a beautiful Journey. I want to bring you the service, support and understanding you need the have a "Good Death", and that is different for all of us. I will also be that light you need in a time of darkness for some. Because What we think is the end, may just be the beginning.
As a professionally trained and experienced End of Life Doula, I can provide you with the all the tools you need for the death and dying process. I have been practicing on and off for over 10 years until I decided to do it full time in 2019. I am certified through the National End of Life Doula Association, and have A College Certification as well to Doula. I’m always learning And growing so I can better suit all walks of life and needs. I have also worked with the elderly on and off for 200 years in home as a caregiver and that is we’re my journey really began. I wanted to make a difference for everyone who needed palliative care, no one should be alone or be afraid of the end of life process.
Having Support and Help when your loved ones are dying can make all the difference in the world to them, and to you. I'm not just here to provide services for the actual dying, I am here to help families and friends with grief and mourning and anything that needs focus during the dying process of their loved ones. This transitioning time can be difficult and I hope to bring to all, the comfort you need to grieve in a positive way and to resolve if need be as well. My main goal is to provide a good death for the person dying and to make them feel loved and ok to transition peacefully, but also providing that same safety for their families and loved ones.

Death Doulas are a calming and reassuring presence with knowledge of the death process, and a compassionate resource for families who may be overwhelmed and grieving at the impending death of their loved one. Death Doulas offer a variety of services to assist in the transition of dying, but are first and foremost a grounding, reliable, knowledgable and comforting presence during a most emotional time.
Death Doulas can be contacted at any time during the end of life process. The sooner the doula can enter into the process, the more time can be spent getting to know the individual and family, creating quality care plans, prioritizing end of life needs, and creating sacred space and meaning for the individual and family.Death Doulas can be contacted at any time during the end of life process.

We highly recommend every individual and family facing a terminal illness and end of life to call their local hospice as soon as possible. Though our doula services do not replace hospice's medical team of nursing and physician care, we complement hospice teams seamlessly. We offer more time, more personalized attention, more continuity at bedside, more advocacy, and more availability beyond what hospice is normally able to provide due to Medicare guidelines. Our extensive training exceeds what hospice volunteer programs provide as each of us have faced in depth our fears and emotions around death. We are trained and practiced to be with intense and difficult emotions. Our full-time presence and companionship at vigil and at death, our advocacy in hospitals or at home, our coaching to customize end-of-life care plans for spiritual, physical, practical and life review needs, and most of all, our consistent relationships with our clients are not a service offered anywhere else.
