Death doula
A death doula is a present companion in the last days of life whose task is to create a safe and accepting environment around the dying person or their loved ones.
We can be by your side at home, in hospice or in hospital and support you emotionally and with wishes, planning and conversations with the healthcare team and loved ones.
A death doula is by your side during the last days of life – at home, in hospice or in hospital. The role is about presence, continuity and security, in a period that often includes both practical needs and strong emotions.
Sometimes the support is about companionship and tranquility: someone who listens, holds the space and is there. Sometimes it is about relieving the burden on loved ones, coordinating contacts or helping to create a warm and dignified environment where your wishes are at the center.
For some, it can be valuable to share thoughts and feelings with someone outside – especially when relatives are missing, or when what needs to be said is difficult to share with those closest to you.
Our transition companions are trained and certified death doulas, or Death Doulas with training in the USA. The assignment is carried out with care, integrity and respect for both the individual and the situation.
We always start with an initial meeting where we get to know each other and see if the collaboration feels right. All support is voluntary and is adapted to your needs, at a pace that feels safe.
We invoice according to an agreed hourly or package price.
