Caregiving Consultant, End Of Life Doula, Compassionate Care, Grief Support

About Me

This work became personal for me long before it became professional. I cared for my mother as we navigated Lewy Body Dementia together, and that experience changed the way I understand caregiving, loss, and what people truly need when things feel uncertain and overwhelming.

Through those years, I learned that caregiving isn’t just about managing care or making the right decisions. It’s about showing up with compassion, offering steady support, and honoring someone’s dignity — even in the hardest moments. It’s also about supporting the caregiver, who is often carrying far more than anyone realizes.

With over 20 years of caregiving experience, including dementia care and end‑of‑life support, I bring both lived experience and professional training into the work I do. I support individuals and families through emotional processing, care planning, legacy work, and grief — always with a calm, respectful, and human approach.

At the heart of my work is advocacy. I want caregivers and their loved ones to feel seen, informed, supported, and never alone. Whether you’re caring for someone you love, facing an end‑of‑life journey, or simply trying to find your footing as a caregiver, my goal is to offer a space that feels safe, compassionate, and steady.

Every journey is different. There are moments that are incredibly hard — and moments that are unexpectedly meaningful. I’m honored to walk alongside people through both, offering clarity, reassurance, and support along the way.

And if you need to hear this:
You don’t have to do this alone.
I’ve got you.

End-Of-Life Planning and Legacy Work

Planning for the end of life can feel overwhelming, but it’s also one of the most loving things you can do for yourself and your family. I’m here to make this process as gentle and supportive as possible, helping you explore your wishes and put them into place with clarity and peace of mind.

Together, we can discuss what’s important to you, from completing advance directives to organizing personal documents—all with a focus on what feels right for you.

If you’d like, we can also dive into meaningful legacy projects that will leave a lasting impact for your loved ones. This could be anything from writing letters, creating a memory book, or recording your life stories, capturing memories and moments that can be cherished for years to come.

The goal is simple: to give you confidence and comfort knowing your wishes are clearly documented and that you’re leaving a personal, heartfelt legacy for those who matter most.

Let’s work together to make sure your voice, values, and memories are honored.

Emotional and Spiritual Support

The end-of-life journey can bring up so many different emotions and questions, and you don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to walk with you, offering one-on-one support to help you feel grounded, comforted, and truly understood as you go through this profound time. Together, we’ll create a safe, open space where you can share anything that’s on your mind—whether it’s fears, memories, hopes, or just thoughts that need to be spoken.

Emotionally, I’m here to listen with an open heart, giving you a place to process whatever comes up without judgment. To help ease any anxiety or stress, we can try simple mindfulness practices, calming breathing exercises, or just quiet moments that bring a sense of peace.

Spiritually, I’ll meet you where you are. If you’re open to it, we can explore practices that bring you comfort, like prayer, journaling, or small rituals that resonate with your beliefs. The goal is to make this journey feel meaningful and to offer you the kind of support that feels right for you.

At the end of the day, my goal is to be a calm, caring presence for you—to help you feel heard, seen, and supported, without any pressure or expectations. Let’s walk through this together, finding comfort and peace along the way.

Family Caregiver Support and Guidance

Caring for a loved one at the end of life is one of the most profound—and often challenging—journeys a family can experience.

I offer compassionate, one-on-one guidance to help you navigate the emotional, logistical, and physical demands of caregiving during this time. Together, we’ll explore strategies for managing the emotional ups and downs, setting healthy boundaries, and creating routines that bring comfort and stability for both you and your loved one.

Through our sessions, my aim is to provide you with the tools, insights, and emotional support that make this experience feel a little more manageable and meaningful. You don’t have to carry this weight alone—I’m here to walk alongside you, offering understanding and encouragement every step of the way.

Grief Support Sessions and Workshops

Grief is a journey that begins long before a loved one passes and often continues in ways that can feel overwhelming, complex, and isolating. In my support sessions and group workshops, I provide a safe, accepting space for you to process these feelings—whether you’re navigating anticipatory grief or mourning after a loss.

Together, we’ll talk through the emotional challenges you’re facing, explore coping strategies, and connect you with helpful resources to bring a sense of grounding and clarity during this difficult time. These sessions are about normalizing all the feelings that come with loss, from sadness and anger to relief and even moments of joy.

My goal is to offer gentle guidance and compassionate understanding, helping you find ways to honor your loved one’s memory and integrate your loss in a way that feels meaningful.

If you’re looking for a place where you can truly feel heard and supported, I’m here to walk this path with you, offering warmth, empathy, and genuine support as you find your way forward.

Consultations for Caregiver Support

I provide personalized consultations to educate families, caregivers, and organizations on the essentials of dementia care, respectful end-of-life practices, and compassionate caregiving strategies.

These sessions are tailored to meet each unique situation, offering practical tools and insights to guide loved ones through the challenges of caregiving with empathy and respect.

Whether it’s creating customized care plans, addressing specific dementia-related concerns, or offering guidance on how to preserve a loved one’s dignity in the final stages of life, my focus is on empowering you with knowledge and support to make compassionate, informed decisions. Each consultation aims to strengthen your caregiving journey, helping you navigate with confidence, patience, and understanding.

My goal is to advocate for compassionate, patient-centered care by sharing my expertise and providing guidance that honors the individual and their family. Through education and empathy, I am here to empower others to bring comfort, respect, and dignity to every step of the caregiving journey.
