My purpose is to be with your loved one until death. I am there to assist their passage from this world to the next.

There are three different areas within this process that I will address:

The first involves the dying person reflecting on their life and planning for how they envision their last days unfolding. The second centers on holding the space for that plan of those last days. The third and final part begins after the person transitions. My work then focuses on family and friends as they process their experiences of the passing and begin their work on grieving.

One of the most important things during this time is that I am able to actively engage the one who is transitioning and have them participate in the entire process. It gives them a voice that often is denied to them. I will be asking a lot of who, what, how, and where questions. Who do you want at your bedside as you transition? What music would you like to hear? What type of bed would you like to be in, hospital or your own? Where would you like the bed? Doulas ask a lot of questions but more importantly they listen to what the dying want and need and do whatever they can to fulfill their requests.

After your loved one’s transition, I am there to assist the family as well. With me there I am able to help family and friends to understand more about the dying process and what some of the issues are that they and their loved one could be facing.

Benefits to individuals and families include:

At each step, I truly listen to your needs and desires and make your wants my own, with the goal of guiding your loved one toward their best possible end-of-life experience.

The cost of my end-of-life packages range from $895-$3500, depending on your family’s needs and the extent of services provided.

All the work that I do is done with the intention of being respectful to the individual being and to do my work with their permission. Without the permission of another, I can do no work – this means I need express, informed consent of the client who is alive and conscious. In the case of a comatose patient or an animal being, the permission can come from the family; then (and only then) their soul may be contacted for their permission. When doing work for children under the age of 18, the permission of both parents/guardians is required.
