RE~CREATING LIFE & DEATH
Calm, Clarity & Care
I believe that dying is a natural part of life
that deserves our dedication & devotion.
​
Whether you are diagnosed or dying, supporting someone who is, grieving someone who will, or you're done pretending you're not going to...
Let's explore what's possible when we sit with you, me & inevitability.
My name is
& I'm so glad you're here.
​Hello & Welcome.
I am a Life & Death Transition Guide
bringing together my personal and professional background to help ease your experience of this inevitable change.
Yes, I am a certified Death Doula, Recreation Therapy Provider & Meditation Teacher.
​
But I'm also a human being who has been a long-term
end-of-life caregiver, faced my own mortality & helped people navigate life, death, loss & mortality for almost two decades.

No matter who you are, where you are & what stage of living or dying you are in...
​
These are four lived experiences that can help you tend to being a human who will die ~
mentally, emotionally, relationally, physically, spiritually & practically.
​​
These practices are invitations to find relief, build resilience & discover renewal
along the way as you navigate the reality of mortality ~ our own, or someone else's.

​
If you or someone you love is diagnosed or dying ~ I'm glad you're considering support.
Just know it's never too late to bring clarity, calm & care into your experience.

Please keep reading.
So, what is possible?
It goes without saying that what is possible when we are navigating
death, dying, loss & mortality is different for every person...​
However, we have natural tools for navigating change that can serve us in living & dying.
​​
This is where The Death Compass comes in.​​​​​​​​​​​
So, what is possible while dying?
​​My role is to provide personalised & deeply human support.
I am here to help you & your circle of care navigate this transition in your own unique ways.
​
I'm not promising it's going to be easy.
But I can help you find ease in the experience ~ along the way.
​
Please note ~ I do not provide medical, legal or financial guidance.
But I can accompany you as you seek expertise in these areas.
​
Here is some of what I can provide...
Who
Everyone deserves to be heard, honoured & have care.
​
For the dying ~ we will explore who they are, what matters to them & those in their circle of care, who they want to be a part of their transition as well as how we can create an experience that cares for them & their carers too.
​​
We will also look at legacy opportunities here.
What
We aren't taught what death truly can look, feel & sound like (movies don't do us any favours). As we navigate the dying experience, we can take what happens step-by-step with calm, clarity & care.
​​
The time left can both be
lived 'fully' & ended 'well' in alignment their unique wishes.
​
I can accompany you by text, phone, video call or in-person.
Where
You may be planning for death at home, in the hospital or a hospice. You could even be supporting someone dying from far away & feeling lost.
​
We can find ways of making sure no matter where you are or the dying are ~ it feels as much like 'home' as possible & connection is our intention.
​
Let's explore what is available to you & your loved ones.
When
Dying can bring a sense of chronic urgency & overwhelm ~ for the dying & their carers. There are common stages of dying and although we can't predict exactly when someone will die, there are signs that help us along the way.
I can help you learn to trust the body knows how to die.
​
I can be present at the bedside or available remotely.
So, why work with me?
Just as each of our lives are unique, so too are our deaths.
​
I provide personalised care that reflects this.
