Although I recently qualified as a soul midwife with Felicity Warner’s Soul Midwives school in the UK, I have worked alongside the dying for many years.
I offer non-medical, holistic companionship and compassionate care to guide, support and help facilitate a gentle and tranquil death. This includes listening and a range of gentle therapies from sound, touch, colour, scent, and other gentle techniques to help alleviate pain and anxiety to soothe and reassure.
My work may begin at any stage between diagnosis until the final day of life, but always with encouragement and support to live life fully until the end. I also help transform the personal and collective experiences of dying and living by helping those facing the end-of-life experience a tender, peaceful, and conscious death.
As a soul midwife, my most important role is to provide comfort, support and reassurance while keeping a loving vigil. This helps the dying experience a tranquil and dignified end to life in a sacred healing space, which can be an essential rite of passage or journey across a spiritual threshold.
Non-denominational in my pastoral support, I offer deep, encouraging conversation with loving dignity within the community. This can be either in the home, hospital, or hospice.
I also have experience working with dying pets. Where necessary, in collaboration with your vet, this can be facilitated naturally in the comfort of your own home or premises.
