Till Death Doula Parts
The dying deserve to leave this world with as much agency as possible.
I believe death to be the most sacred part of life. If there is one time to be utterly selfish, it’s now. While our loved ones have been along for the ride, it’s important that we remember that your death is yours and yours alone, and it should be honored and respected in a way that is in alignment with your wishes and core values.
As a death doula I provide holistic, non-medical support to the dying and those caring for them. I also provide advanced end-of-life planning for those who desire to create a roadmap for their ideal “good” death experience. You don’t have to be dying to plan for it! In fact, it’s encouraged to plan ahead so that you and your chosen community can have more quality time together during your last weeks, days and hours.

Sitting Vigil & Respite Care
Sitting vigil is heart-centered service at its core. Sitting vigil could mean literally sitting by your side for as long as you wish to have the company. It can also be a space in which spirituality, ritual and various healing modalities are present.
Respite care is pivotal in preventing caregiver burnout. Most primary caregivers are the family or loved ones of the person dying, or those in the medical field who dedicate their whole life to caring for others. A doula can provide respite for a caregiver so that they can rest, recharge, or just take a breath! I’m happy to provide that much needed time for whatever form of self care is calling you.

Legacy Work
Legacy work can be such a profound gift to the people you love, and leave you with a sense of fulfillment and peace. Legacy work can be as simple as sharing your favorite recipes with those you love, to completing an oral history or memoir.
