A commitment to a peaceful transition and providing healing pathways for those at the end-of-life and their loved ones
I am a certified End-of-Life Doulagiver Specialist, also known as a “Death Doula“, serving in the Las Vegas area. I am dedicated to changing the current end-of-life process by fostering meaningful, compassionate, and personalized care that honors one’s values, wishes, and dignity, while supporting loved ones through this profound end-of-life transition.
A passion for holding space
My comprehensive suite of services caters to elderly patients at the end-of-life and patients (at any age) with a terminal diagnosis.
Companion to the dying
The main goal of the Death Doula is to be a companion to the dying and their loved ones. The Doula is a supportive presence and is there to “hold the space” for the dying and their loved ones in order to minimize stress as much as possible at this time.
Interventions for comfort
The Death Doula is trained in all 3 phases of end-of-life care and knows what to look for as a client’s condition changes and they know what interventions to suggest to the family to increase comfort.
Facilitate unresolved issues
Being a great listener and helping to facilitate any unresolved issues that may be identified. As a Universal Healer myself, I may channel energy healing to the client and/or the loved ones in order to restore balance and harmony with the mind, body, and spirit.
Advanced Directives
Death Doulas help the client create an Advanced Directive, a legal document that expresses the patients’ wishes for healthcare and pick a health care proxy.
Vigil planning
Death Doulas help the client and family plan how they would like the last 24-48 hours of the person’s life to be and who they would like to be there.
Ceremony planning
Death Doulas help the client and family with planning the wake, funeral, life celebration or ceremony. Options are explored and the patient should take part in how they’d like to be remembered.
Write the obituary & eulogy
Death Doulas may help the client and/or the family write their own obituary or the eulogies.
Create remembrances
Death Doulas may help document the client’s meaningful life stories to leave behind for their loved ones. This can be done in writing, recording, videotape, song, etc… be creative and make it their own!
Finding peace & acceptance
Death Doulas help the client find meaning in their life, and also assures the client and loved ones that they are here for them throughout the whole experience. Doulas may share grieving skills and healing pathways to honor the loss and celebrate the spirit of the deceased.
