Death Care Services

Be supported in your sacred transition. 

As an end-of-life doula, I offer emotional and spiritual support as you or a beloved navigates death. 

 

What is an End-of-Life Doula?

Working with a death doula can help you or your loved one identify what's most important in the dying process and advocate for your wishes throughout your sacred departure to foster a meaningful and compassionate transition.

Be supported in various non-medical ways, including grief companionship, meaning of life exploration, vigil support, non-medical comfort care, and more. 

The support of a death doula can be helpful at any point in the dying process. It is never too late or too early to ask for the support you desire.

Testimonials from past clients

  • “I want to share how wonderful Cassie was for our family as we navigated the passing of my precious mother. 
Cassie was always kind and knowledgeable, providing helpful information and beautiful options along our difficult path of escorting Mom to her next chapter and us to ours. 
I had never heard of a death doula and was a bit unsure of how I felt about it and what to expect. 
Flexibility and personalization were always presented, with many options at every step, adding wonderful positivity to the experience.

    I'm eternally grateful to Cassie and her light of positivity that she brought with each visit. 
I highly recommend her to anyone considering a death doula or anyone desiring to see her many great gifts. Thank you, Cassie, for adding positivity, light, and goodness to life here and beyond. ❤️🙏🏻 “

Why Work with a Death Doula?

Death doulas, death workers, or end-of-life doulas offer a variety of non-medical roles for those facing terminal conditions and those interested in planning for end-of-life.

While hospice care has filled an incredible gap, our society lacks spiritual and emotional support for the dying and their family, especially those who don't identify with a mainstream faith. End-of-life doulas undergo training in deep active listening and centering techniques to facilitate a grounded and non-judgmental container for those facing or planning for the end of life.

Allowing space for discussions around what one desires in their final weeks and days can bring meaning and even beauty to some of life's most confusing and challenging times.
