Death Doula Services

Whether you or a loved one has a terminal diagnosis or you are simply interested in proactive end-of-life planning, as a death doula, I can be a helpful guide and companion.

I provide compassionate, nonmedical support to individuals, families, and their circles of care as you encounter and navigate death, loss, and mortality. This can help alleviate some of the burden of worrying about the details and allow you to focus on your quality of life.

I am there as an advocate for the dying person's autonomy and self-determination, contributing psychosocial, emotional, spiritual, and practical care to empower dignity throughout the dying process. I provide information and resources to guide informed decision-making in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

End-of-Life Planning

Discuss and guide decision-making for end-of-life options, including advance directives, living wills, memorial planning, and critical information documentation.

Legacy Projects

Life review, obituary writing, or capturing your family stories and memories in a genealogical record.

Companionship

Respite for caregivers, compassionate presence for the dying, a non-judgmental ear for discussing topics from which many in our culture shy away.

Musical Accompaniment

As a guitarist and vocalist, I can co-create a personalized musical experience that connects with your life and dying journey and is performed in your home or care space.
