Services

The purpose of an end of life doula is simple: to bring comfort and support to those that are dying. The goal is to help the patient feel the best that they can for as long as possible and greatly improve the quality of their life that remains. To be a grounding support system for the patient and the family during this transitional time.

Facilitating conversations with family members

Advocating on behalf of the patient by accompanying them to medical appointments

Helping to create a death plan, and organize home vigils and a living funeral if desired

Discussing the legacy that the patient hopes to leave with family; this could be a scrap book, a photobook memorial journal, photo albums, written words and thoughts of the patient

Running errands and picking up medications if necessary

Writing letters to family members

Reading books or religious/spiritual books to the patient

Offering natural therapeutic remedies (See more about Flower Remedies here) that can be soothing and relaxing for the patient and their family

As a Licensed Massage Therapist, introducing the healing power of gentle massage using aromatherapy

Providing the patient with the calming properties of meditation and music

In the active stages of dying, holding vigil

I offer phone consultations or Skype sessions for anyone throughout the United States.

I am able to offer consultations, home visits and vigils for patients and family members in or around the San Antonio area.

Please note that you do not have to have a terminal diagnosis or be actively dying in order to use my services. Often people just want to have a conversation about the concerns they have around death and dying, or they have questions about what to expect when a loved one passes. I can customize my services to meet the needs of you and your family. Please contact me to see how I best can support and serve you.
