Healing Support for Heart + Soul
No matter where you are on the journey -- adjusting to life after diagnosis, focusing on staying close to what's most important as things progress, navigating details big and small as you approach the threshold, or if you are a loved one providing support -- I am here to walk with you as a trusted guide and compassionate soul companion, holding space and creating opportunities for you to come into deeper relationship with the whole of your experience as you move forward.
If you are curious about living authentically through illness, the last breath, and beyond, I invite you to reach out for a free conversation about what our working together could look like.
It’s all about identifying the possibilities inherent in holding both what is actually happening for you moment-to-moment alongside the very real desire to survive it for as long as possible.
You will never walk alone.

See below for specially focused sessions and End of Life Vigil options
Living Fully After Diagnosis
This is for you if you have received a difficult, possibly terminal diagnosis, are contemplating and/or receiving treatment, and are seeking compassionate support as you walk through the unknown terrain of negotiating the life changes that come with treatment and healing.
I offer a gentle, encouraging space for you to be present with your experience, to discuss the challenges and opportunities inherent in living fully after diagnosis, particularly with an illness that is largely agreed to be terminal. I help you to explore options for staying close to what is most important in treatment and in life, for embracing hope and possibility, for navigating your own expectations and those of others, and for planning for the future, whatever it may bring.
You will leave our session with clarity around your next steps, and receive a dedicated ritual and intention to help focus your healing energy as you continue on your path.
During this initial session, we can explore possibilities for moving forward together.
Sacred Focusing Session (90 minutes) - $150
Living Fully into Transition
This is for you if you have received a terminal diagnosis, may have received treatment and are coming to terms with the idea that despite those efforts, your body continues its decline. You desire someone independent of your immediate circle of support to walk with you, to help birth you into a new way of living as you connect with your soul's unfolding into the end of your earthly life.
I offer a safe, nurturing space to explore the benefits and limitations of continuing treatments, when to engage hospice and other palliative care services, how to navigate the changes and resulting "new normals" that continue to unfold, legacy projects to leave for your loved ones, what possibilities for growth and healing exist in engaging the end of life process, and preparing you and your loved ones for your transition.
You will leave our session with clarity around your vision for how you most want to invest your time and energy, and receive a dedicated ritual and blessing to nourish you as you go about creating your future.
During this initial session, we can explore possibilities for moving forward together.
Sacred Visioning Session (90 minutes) - $150
Sacred Companion Session
Just as we know how to transition from life into what's next, we also know how to companion our loved ones as they embark on this journey. Sometimes we just need someone to guide us to our own remembering.
You know how to do this.
Together we can explore your questions and concerns -- from the practical to the philosophical to the metaphysical -- lovingly leaning into whatever shows up for you along the way. I will empower you with techniques for supporting, ideas for engaging, and tools for connecting, designed to support your sacred experience of tending the life of your loved one at the threshold.
You will leave our session feeling more confident in your knowing, and receive a dedicated ritual and healing intention to enhance your ability to remain present and centered as you show up with your loved one as fully as possible.
During this initial session, we can explore possibilities for how we might best move forward together -- including options for in-person guidance, on-call text support, as-needed phone or Zoom support, and more.

Living Fully at the Threshold
- End of Life Vigil -
This is for you if your death is approaching quickly and you want someone present to lovingly tend to your emotional and spiritual needs, hold space for the process, and to ensure everyone in your circle is as prepared and included as possible as you transition from physical life into the mystery of what's next.
I offer a safe space to gently explore whatever challenges may arise and seek possibilities for creating sacred space at the bedside for forgiveness, comfort, celebration, storytelling, reflection, laughter, ritual, and meaning.
I advocate for your wishes (End of Life Vigil Plan) within your circle of support, help your loved ones recognize signs of decline as you get closer to death, model important ways to meaningfully communicate with you throughout the dying process, and am present as you transition, if desired. I kindly encourage those closest to you to practice exquisite self-care in order to help them to stay present in your transition, every step of the way.
Sacred Circle Session (90 minutes) - $150
Together we can explore the opportunities in your path given your current circle of support, and discover unique possibilities for how to move forward.
You will leave this initial session with clarity around your desired level of continued end of life vigil support, and receive a dedicated ritual and mantra to ease your heart and mind as your process continues to unfold.
