What types of services do you provide?
Emotional Support
Creating a safe space for you to express your emotions, process your experiences, and find peace in the midst of transition.
Practical Guidance
I help plan for end-of-life preferences, ensuring your wishes are respected. We bridge the gap between medical care and personal values.
Vigil Support
In the final hours, I provide a calm, reassuring presence to honor your journey and offer comfort to your loved ones. We create a comforting and meaningful environment so that the final moments are filled with presence, connection, and peace.
What should clients know about your pricing(e.g., discounts, fees, packages)?
Pricing is flexible and on a case-by-case basis.
What is your typical process for working with a new client?
We have a phone or Zoom meeting to discuss the situation and what the client is looking for in terms of end of life care. If I am not a match, I provide referrals to other caregivers/doulas who may be.
What are some of the ways you have supported someone at end-of-life?
Sat bedside throughout the active dying phase until death.
Helped families to understand the dying process and what they may expect to make the experience less frightening.
Had open discussions about the client's thoughts and feelings about anything they wished to talk about.
What advice would you give someone looking to hire an end-of-life doula?
I would advise any client to do their due diligence, have an honest, open conversation with the practitioner prior to engaging them, and trust their instincts. If it feels like a good match, it probably is. If you are in any way uncomfortable or do not feel like it's a match, feel free to say so.
This is about you and your journey, and you should only have those around you who support you.
