Why are death doulas so important?
By actively listening and understanding my client’s needs, I help them prepare mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically for the inevitable, creating end-of-life rituals and facilitating important conversations with loved ones and doctors.
How death doulas support the dying and their families too
But death doulas offer much more than a calm presence and a helping hand with funeral arrangements. They support the dying by making sure their voices are heard and their wishes are honored. They support the family by educating on the dying process, creating a plan for the moment of death (also called vigil planning), and facilitating much needed conversations between family members.
End-of-Life Doulas are there to walk you home
My job is to help the dying person figure out how they want to experience death and how they wish to allow others to experience their death.
