Traversing caregiver concerns, planning a good death, making end-of-life decisions, and creating a funeral, memorial, or tribute service can be difficult. Heather will provide you with information, resources, and concepts that will help you make the right decision for your loved one and family.

As a death doula, I have participated in specialized training to assist the dying and their family members. Caring for someone who is dying can be traumatic and confusing, especially in a time when aging and end of life is ignored or a taboo subject to discuss. A death doula, death midwife, end of life coach or transition guide can help family members through the process of dying, explain what to expect, and serve an advocate.

A death doula can offer comfort, support, and companionship. Most doulas are nonsectarian and able to provide a variety of services that could include religious readings, prayers, and songs in the death process and celebration of life service. It is my desire for you to have a positive death experience and provide family members a safe space for conversation and action.
