Services & Classes

 This service offers dedicated, non-medical companioning for individuals at the end of life and their inner circle. As your doula, I offer grounded emotional support, steady presence and practical assistance during a tender and meaningful time.

Support may include, but is not limited to: legacy projects, respite support, living funerals, mourning support and post-loss practical assistance to help ensure a dignified and supported transition.  Each service is tailored to the individual and shaped by your needs, values and pace.

Each visit meets you where you are. There may be days when you simply want to listen to favorite music, read together, or share quiet reflection, or sit in silence. There is no pressure to do, say, or be anything other then who you are in that moment. 

What support may include

Legacy Projects 

Legacy projects are optional creative processes that allow you to share your story, values, and memories in a way that feels meaningful to you. These offerings move at your pace and are never required.

Respite Support

Respite support provides short-term relief for primary caregivers, allowing time for rest or personal needs while I offer a calm, steady presence with the individual at the end of life. 

Living Funerals

Living funerals are memorials or celebration of life gatherings held while the dying person is still alive and able to participate, should they choose. These gatherings can offer connection, reflection, and shared presence before death occurs.

Mourning and Post-Loss Support

Mourning and Post-Loss support may include emotional presence and practical assistance following a death, including support navigating immediate post-death needs and arrangements. 

A Note on Scope

This service focuses solely on non-medical end-of-life companioning through presence, listening, and practical support. It does not include somatic practices, ritual facilitation, or  energetic work.  

Curated Ritual Work for Living Deaths (The Full Container)

This is my signature 1:1 offering for individuals moving through living deaths,  endings that occur while the body continues to live. These experiences may include the loss of identity, meaning, roles, or an imagined future. Often unseen or unnamed, living deaths can leave a person feeling unmoored, tender or unsure of how to move forward.

This curated ritual container offers intentional, non-judgmental support during these threshold moments. Offered as a short, immersive journey (typically spanning 3-5 days), the work centers presence, acknowledgement, and renewal rather than fixing, diagnosing or rushing change. 

To support these moments of living death with care and steadiness, it follows a simple intentional structure created to honor your pace, capacity, and choice.

How the container unfolds

• Before: Several days of personalized preparation and reflection (remote)

• During: One extended in-home session focused on ritual, body renewal and space integration

• After: Gentle integration and a brief follow-up check in (remote)

The Power With & Within Philosophy

This work is rooted in a principle of "Power With"-meaning I walk the path alongside you. If your ritual involves specific practices (like a focused fast, deep self-care or journaling), I engage in those same practices for the same duration. 

This shared commitment  is intended to support your connection to your own "Power Within"- your inner capacity for insight, choice, change and self-trust. 

Your Journey Includes:

1. Personalized Preparation (Pre-Session): Several days before our session, you receive personalized preparation, via text, designed to support clarity, grounding, and presence. These may include invitations such as a temporary social media pause (to reduce subconscious interference) or intentional practices tailored to your needs, such as: deep self-care, or journaling. 

These invitations are not about doing things "right", but about creating space to listen inwardly and arrive with greater awareness and choice. Participation in any preparation practice is always optional and adapted to your capacity and circumstances. 

2. Ritual Container Creation: On the day of the session (typically 2-5 hours), we meet in your home-where you feel most at ease-to create a focused container of support and presence  that centers your needs and pace. 

3. Deep Renewal  & Integration: This portion of the session forms the heart of our work together. In collaboration with you, we create a personalized ritual drawn from your  own spiritual beliefs and practices, intended to gently make space for what is ready to shift or be acknowledged. 

This is followed by a grounding body renewal phase, which may include light movement or yoga and shared nourishment, supporting integration and presence. 

4. Home & Physical Space Renewal: We integrate your physical environment by tending to a small but meaningful area of your home (such as a desk, closet or pantry). This grounding act of Transitional Decluttering is intended to anchor internal shifts into daily physical life. 

5. Reflection & Continuity: We  transition into a closing phase that supports reflection and grounding.  This is a spacious, non-judgmental conversation that makes room for what you noticed, what shifted, and what may still be unfolding, without pressure to name or resolve everything. 

 You leave with a personalized plan that may include continuing select pre-session invitations, if desired. These ongoing practices are offered to support gentle noticing over time, allowing insight to integrate at your own pace, beyond the day of the ritual itself.  

6. Post-Session Check-In: Within 24 hours of our session, I reach out with a brief, personal check-in via text. This is a gentle moment of contact to acknowledge  the work we shared and support a sense of grounding after our time together. 

A Note on Scope and Choice 

This container is offered as a spiritual and supportive practice, not as therapy, medical care, or long-term support. All rituals, reflections, and practices are optional and co-created. You remain the authority on your experience at every stage of the process. 

Transitional Decluttering

This service supports individuals navigating significant loss and life change, including death, living deaths, and other profound endings that require both emotional care and practical support.

During times of grief or transition, managing physical belonging and environments can feel overwhelming or difficult to approach. This work offers a spacious, non-judgmental approach for tending to your home while honoring what you are carrying internally. We move at your pace, honoring your capacity, boundaries, and the meaning held within your belongings. 

This work welcomes spaces that have been paused for a long time, revisited many times, or avoided altogether. There is no expectation that you be “ready” before we begin. 

How We Work Together

This is a collaborative, guided process rooted in presence and consent. You remain the decision-maker with your belongings at every step. Rather than taking over or reorganizing for you, I walk beside you as you sort, reflect, and choose what feels right to keep, release, or tend differently. 

Physical assistance is offered only with your consent and when it feels supportive. The intention is to help you create systems and clarity that feel sustainable and aligned, rather than creating change that happens to you. 

What this services provides:

• Grief-informed pace: We work entirely at your speed. The process is never rushed, and your emotional well-being is prioritized over efficiency.

• Support through stagnation: Gentle non-shaming guidance for those who feel frozen, overwhelmed, or unsure of where to begin. This work honors that some transitions take time, and offers a compassionate starting point, regardless of how long a space or situation has felt "stuck."

• Capacity-aware support: A process that welcomes long pauses, and moments of feeling unfinished. Meeting you exactly where you are, without pressure to progress faster than your emotional or physical capacity allows.

• Collaborative presence & body doubling: This is a guided, hands-on process led by you.  I provide a steady, supportive presence, often called body doubling, to help reduce overwhelm and support focus as we navigate the physical and emotional weight of your belongings together. 

• Somatic awareness: Sessions unfold with attention to how the work is felt in the body as signals for information, Supporting pacing, choice, and boundary setting. This is not a technique or clinical practice, but a way of noticing when to pause, continue, or shift. We make space for breath, reflection, and rest throughout.  

• Respectful sorting: Compassionate assistance in thoughtfully sorting belongings for keeping, donating, or respectful disposal. Honoring both the practical needs of your space and emotional attachments.

• Legacy & self-honoring focus: Support in preserving meaningful items and memories while intentionally creating space that reflects and supports your present identity and the chapter ahead. 

This Service is Ideal for Clients Navigating:

• Relocation and Moving: Organizing and decluttering prior to a local or long-distance move.

• Legacy & Bereavement: Compassionate assistance in organizing a home after a physical death. 

• Empty Nest transitions: Reclaiming and redefining space after children have moved out.

• Starting a New Chapter: Decluttering after a breakup, job change, or significant health diagnosis. 

• Major Life Transitions: Preparing for retirement, downsizing or setting up a home for a new cohabitant.

• Lingering overwhelm after loss or change: Compassionate support when belongings feel heavy or unfinished, including spaces that have been paused, avoided, or revisited over time. 

Whether you are navigating the death of a loved one, the dissolution of a relationship, the loss of a home or identity, or the physical remnants of a past chapter, we gently create physical order during periods of deep transition. The intention is not perfection or productivity, it is to support a space that reflects and supports who you are becoming. 

As a Holistic Life Doula, I walk alongside you to reduce overwhelm and offer compassionate, grounded support as you navigate your physical environment during times of grief or change. Together, we honor what has been while restoring function, clarity, and steadiness to your space, so it can actively support your emotional and logistical needs as you move forward. 

Dancing With Grief and Shadows

Embrace what you have rejected. Find acceptance and empowerment through movement, ritual, and art. 

This is a monthly, facilitated group class for beginners that weaves together ritual flow, improv/freestyle movement, and creative reflection. It is a space to tend the emotional weight of grief and to gently meet the parts of yourself that have been repressed, avoided, or left unseen (often called shadows). 

Together, we create a safe, non-confrontational container where you are invited to soften into presence, acceptance, and non-judgement towards the complexities of your inner world. You do not need to know what you're working on before you arrive. 

What You Will Learn & Experience:

• Guided Ritual Flow: Each session follows a consistent arc- moving through a meditative ritual, movement, and reflection that evolve month-to-month based on what's being invited forward. 

• Releasing the Outcome: A gentle guided stretch and vocal expression to lift the external expectations placed on us by society, family, and self.

• Improv/Freestyle Movement: You are invited into personal expression through movement or stillness. There is no performance, no pressure, and need to follow the facilitator,  prompts simply guide you back to your own body and inner truth. 

• Creative Reflection (art): After movement, we transition into giving shape to what was felt, witnessed and released. This creative process supports integration helping you carry the work forward in a in tangible way.

• Community & closing circle: We close with a supportive circle for those who wish to share their experience. 

You are always invited, never required, to participate in any way. You may move, rest, observe or step out as needed.
