We all have choices....right up until the day we die

We celebrate birth and other significant events in our life. Now it’s time to think about celebrating our end stage as well.

I am an End of Life Doula & Consultant.

The word “doula” is from a Greek term describing women who serve. The concept of an end-of-life or "death" doula is part of an emerging trend on how to re-imagine and approach death.

I have successfully made a living helping people rebuild their lives after tragedy has struck and my own experiences with loss, helping others reconcile loss and walking along with those taking the journey has strengthened and encouraged me to work with others to help them find their voice and make their own choices about what is best for them.
