Death Doula & Shamanic Guide
Compassionate & transformative end of life care
My unique perspective allows me to guide individuals through the dying process with profound empathy and understanding, honoring the sacredness of this transition.
Through my Shamanic work, I help both the dying and their loved ones navigate the emotional, spiritual, and energetic aspects of death, creating a space where fear can be released, and peace can be embraced. My role is to hold space for this journey, providing support, rituals, and guidance to ensure a meaningful and conscious transition for all involved.

My Process
My work involves the use of sacred medicines that can play a significant role in assisting with the transition of death by providing a deeper spiritual connection, reducing fear and anxiety, and helping individuals come to terms with the process of dying.
The Role of Sacred Medicine
3. Facilitating Emotional Healing
Sacred medicines can help release unresolved emotional trauma, guilt, or regret, enabling individuals to find closure before passing. By facilitating deep emotional processing, they provide an opportunity for reconciliation and inner peace, easing the transition.
4. Creating a Shift in Perspective
Sacred medicines often shift the individual’s perspective on death, helping them see it as a natural part of life’s cycle rather than something to be feared. This change in outlook can lead to greater acceptance and even a sense of curiosity or openness to what lies beyond.
1. Reducing Fear and Anxiety
Sacred medicines, such as plant medicine and other entheogens, have been shown to reduce fear, anxiety, and resistance to death by creating a profound sense of peace and acceptance. They help individuals confront and release their fears of dying, making it easier to embrace the transition with calmness.
2. Enhancing Spiritual Connection
These medicines can open individuals to greater spiritual awareness, allowing them to connect with a sense of oneness, universal love, or a higher power. This connection can bring comfort in the dying process, as individuals often experience a deep sense of meaning and purpose, transcending the fear of physical death.
5. Alleviating Physical Pain and Discomfort
In some cases, certain sacred medicines can also help reduce physical pain, making the transition more comfortable and less physically burdensome.
