Connection and Support

Compassion, Companionship, and End-of-Life Support

For those who are in — or beginning to think about — their autumn season, the days can sometimes feel long or isolating. As an End-of-Life Doula (also known as a Death Doula), I am here to walk alongside you or your loved ones during this time, offering companionship, meaningful conversation, life review, and practical guidance.

Your Story, Your Way

Your life is so much more than your illness. You have stories to share, connections to cherish, and wishes to honor. As we get to know each other, I’ll listen deeply and ask questions to better understand your end-of-life goals and priorities. Together, we’ll shape this final chapter in a way that reflects your values, memories, and desires — ensuring your story is told just as you want it to be.

What I Offer

  • Companionship and Conversation: Providing a comforting presence and a listening ear.

  • Life Review and Legacy Work: Reflecting on your life’s journey and preserving your legacy through letters and a variety of meaningful projects.

  • Advocacy and Support: Ensuring your needs and wishes are understood and respected by your care team and loved ones.

  • Practical Assistance: Guidance with advance care planning, paperwork, and coordinating your final wishes.

  • Vigil Sitting: Being present with you during the final moments to offer calm, comfort, and support.

  • Respite for Caregivers: Allowing your loved ones to take breaks from caregiving, knowing you are supported and cared for.

A Team Approach

I work closely with your family, friends, and care team to understand your daily routine and preferences. My goal is to ensure you spend this chapter exactly as you wish, with peace, dignity, and connection.
