Meet Your Doula
I'm Delia
I’m a certified End-of-Life Doula. I help you take the fear and anxiety out of planning for a beautiful end-of-life experience and walk alongside you and your loved ones at the time of your death.
What’s an End-of-Life Doula? An End-of-Life Doula, also known as a Death Doula, guides non-terminal and terminal clients through the dying process. Similar to a Birth Doula who prepares the mother and father for a smooth delivery, the Death Doula prepares and holistically supports their clients and loved ones.
As an End-of-Life/Death Doula, I will walk alongside an individual and their family and help with the very important stages of Pre-Planning, Preparation, and Transition.
How I help Families
Death shouldn’t just be confronted in our final moments – it’s an experience that gains more meaning when intertwined with life.
- Together we prepare your Advance Directive and select a Healthcare Proxy / Advocate. We discuss what quality of life means to you and decide what life-saving measures you choose. We’ll also discuss how to best make your wishes known to family and friends.
- With many years of experience helping families at end-of-life, I can provide disease process education and work alongside your hospice team to ensure your wishes are met, and together we plan for a beautiful end-of-life experience.
- With so many vigils and burial options to consider, we’ll discuss these and choose what best represents you. From traditional to green burial, your burial can be as unique as you are.
- As a grief coach, I’m familiar with the many forms of grief. I’ll be your guide as we navigate through difficult decisions and assist you and your family along your journey.
