As the end of one’s life approaches, there are often questions, uncertainty and fear around the unknown. My role as a doula is to walk beside both the loved one and their family members, as I offer compassionate, supportive and empowering guidance. As a certified end-of-life doula, my purpose in working with clients is to provide emotional, educational, and spiritual support that empowers individuals to create a meaningful transition. Death can be hidden from view and rarely discussed, yet being open to this unique threshold can calm your fears and bring value to your life.

I consider it an honor to be a companion throughout one’s end-of-life journey.
