ABOUT ME
My background as an occupational therapist has given me grounded scientific knowledge in the physical and psychological aspects of the human being – while my personal journey of discovery has led me to explore the impact of all stages of life on the spirit. My additional training as an energy practitioner and minister of healing, helps me to integrate the two worlds of traditional and conventional therapies for an approach that meets many needs.
Being sensitive to a person’s background, belief system, and lifestyle helps me to provide the most effective care.
Personally, I have assisted many individuals and families to cross this threshold, be it one-on-one care as a primary caregiver, compassionate care to the family and the bereaved, energy-work to allow surrender and peace, setting up vigils, and conducted funeral services. Each death is sacred and requires an open heart to what is.
Emotional Support: As a Death doula, I offer compassionate listening and emotional guidance to individuals and their loved ones as they navigate the emotional challenges of facing death and saying the final good-byes. Assistance with phone calls, letters, or offering a lending ear to resolve and come to terms with unfinished relationships may be important. It is possible to free ourselves of resentment and regret before we die. The chance to do this creates an atmosphere of peace for the dying and to family and friends.
