DOULA Services
WHAT we offer
As an end-of-life doula we offer an extra layer of advocacy, education, organization and companionship.
We help you get ahead of the details. Having a plan and your affairs in order is a gift not only to your loved ones - but to yourself. You have assurance. You have control.
Your friends and family can focus on celebrating your life - not managing the heartbreak associated with your death.
Spend the final years of your life, the best years of your life - knowing that even in the end, you were calling the shots.
