What is an end of life doula?
An end-of-life doula is a professionally trained end-of-life guide who provides holistic non-medical support to individuals and their loved ones during life’s transitions.
Unlike medical professionals, end-of-life doulas focus on emotional, spiritual, and practical assistance, helping people navigate end-of-life experiences with dignity and compassion.
End-of-life doulas bridge the gap between medical care and personal, compassionate support during one of life's most profound transitions.
We offer a complimentary 30-minute consultation so we can connect, discuss your unique needs, and answer all your questions with care. Following our conversation, we will craft a personalized plan for your journey, complete with an estimated cost. We are committed to balancing your desired level of care with an acceptable budget, and our planning often results in significant savings on overall final expenses while ensuring all your wishes are fully met.
MISSION STATEMENT
I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience a good death—one defined on their own terms, held with dignity and supported with compassion. My mission is to walk alongside individuals and their loved ones through the end-of-life journey offering presence, partnership, education and practical guidance. I honor each person’s unique story, values, and choices, creating an environment of peace, meaning, forgiveness and connection.
ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM
January 10, 2026 11:00 am - 12:30 pm Pacific
The fear of public speaking and the fear of death are consistently ranked as humanity's greatest anxieties. We celebrate birth, yet we avoid discussions about the other universal experience we all share: dying. This avoidance has made death the ultimate "elephant in the room"—an uncomfortable, unspoken reality.
Drawing inspiration from the Death Cafe format, this is a professionally facilitated conversation, available virtually, that provides a safe, non-judgmental forum for participants to explore their personal relationship with mortality and dying.
