In the book of life, the last chapter can be the most meaningful.
As a death doula, I support those approaching the end-of-life through individualized emotional, spiritual, physical, and practical care.
I believe that all beings deserve to die in an intentional field of care, presence, and dignity. I work with those who are actively dying, as well as their loved ones, to consciously face this transition on their own terms.
Because how we die matters.
If you or a loved one is facing end-of-life, there are a variety of ways I can support you depending on where you are in the journey.
For those in the New York City area, I am able to offer in-person support, otherwise much of our work can be done remotely.
Emotional Processing & Support
I create a caring, receptive space to talk openly about death, engage in life review & legacy work, and process the complexity of emotions that arise at end-of-life. I also work with loved ones in facing the challenges of this transition and help resource them as caregivers.
Practical Preparations
I help the dying individual address the “practical” matters, including reviewing advance care and after-death planning, providing respite support for exhausted caregivers, enhancing the comfort of physical spaces, and offering hands-on meditative practices and interventions to ease the heart, mind and body.
Vigil Planning & Spiritual Support
If located in the NYC area, I can be available to sit vigil at bedside and offer a warm, grounded, and attentive presence to the dying during the final days. I can also help facilitate existing traditions and rituals or create new meaningful ones for the dying and their loved ones.
After-Death Care & Grief Support
After death, I can help care for the body, advocate for final wishes, preside over or support after-death memorial services, and offer grief support to family and loved ones.
I work with individuals of all backgrounds and I honor the richness of the various identities that each embodiment represents. All personal and medical information shared with me is strictly confidential.
Given that the specific circumstances of each person vary, I do not have set pricing for these services. Based upon your individual needs and timeline, a package price will be determined before we begin our work together. The initial consultation call is free. I believe that everyone regardless of their financial situation should have access to this kind of support, so I will always do my best to be flexible on pricing.
