For the living & dying
Hiring a death doula:
Isn’t only about preparing for the end. It’s about embracing life more fully. My work lives at the intersection of care, creativity, ritual, and truth-telling. Sometimes that looks like sitting quietly at the bedside. Sometimes it looks like laughter, music, or telling stories late into the night. Sometimes it looks like helping families make sense of paperwork, decisions, and fear. Always, it’s about helping people feel seen, supported, and less alone.
What I offer:
-
Emotional and spiritual support for individuals who are dying; Presence at the bedside or during significant moments; Support with fear, uncertainty, legacy questions, and meaning-making; Creating space for honest conversations about death.
-
Life review and legacy interviews; Writing, recording, or capturing stories, memories, and messages; Support creating letters, audio, video, or creative keepsakes; Helping people articulate what they want remembered, and how.
-
Guidance for family members and chosen family; Emotional support before, during, and after death; Help navigating anticipatory grief; Holding space for complicated feelings: love, anger, relief, sorrow, gratitude.
-
Conversations about wishes, values, and preferences; Support thinking through end-of-life choices; Death literacy for individuals, families, and communities.
-
Support using plant medicine as a companion to grief, reflection, and end-of-life processing; Guidance around ceremonial plant allies for grounding and rest.

If you are looking for a death, grief, life worker +
After asking death workers on Instagram to share who they are and what they do, this directory was born. It's a living list of doulas, grief therapists, celebrants, chaplains, and other death care workers from around the world, each one showing up for people at the hardest moments of life. Use it to find support, make a referral, or connect with others in the field.
