“The end of life doula role is both new and ancient – a return to how humans have always naturally cared for each other during life’s most sacred event.”
Just as doulas are present at birth, end of life doulas provide specialized services as a person approaches their transition into death. Death and dying are a part of life that can oftentimes cause fear, anxiety or denial. I believe that embracing death as a natural part of life, and planning for it in a thoughtful and meaningful way is essential to living and dying well as it is integral to our wholeness as humans. Through kindness, respect, and professionalism, my role as an end of life doula is to work with dying people as well as their families, to provide comfort through complex emotions as well as mental and spiritual experiences. La Loba Soul Support helps individuals, families, + the culture at large meet the ongoing process of birth, growth, death, + rebirth in a more soul-centric + healing way. In honoring my clients’ wishes, I strive to bring light to the miracle of a life—even in its final stages. I work with community organizations, such as local hospices, hospitals, and religious organizations in growing and deepening the care for the aging and the dying.
