The Time Between
Compassionate End-of-Life Doula Services
Holding space. Easing fear. Honouring life.
The Time Between offers heartfelt, non-medical support for individuals nearing the end of life and their loved ones. As a trained end-of-life doula (candidate), I provide emotional, practical, and compassionate care to help ease the journey through death and dying. Often called a “death doula,” my role is to offer a calm, grounded presence, providing education, guidance, and comfort during one of life’s most tender and transformative times.
When someone is dying, and the people who love them are preparing to say goodbye, emotions can feel overwhelming. Fear, grief, uncertainty, and love often arrive all at once. My work is to be a steady, caring presence—a safe space where those feelings can be expressed freely and without judgment. You are not alone.
With nearly 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a deep understanding of emotional care and peer support to this sacred work. I'm also an artist and arts-based facilitator, and I'm now weaving together everything I’ve learned about healing through creative expression into this new chapter of service.
At the heart of The Time Between is a belief that even in dying, there is deep living to be done. I am here to walk beside you, to honour your story, and to help bring meaning, peace, and connection to this sacred part of the journey.
I am currently completing my end-of-life doula certification and practicum, and will begin taking on new clients in the fall of 2025.
End-of-life care is deeply personal, and every doula brings unique experiences and strengths to their practice. My services include:
Meaning-making and fostering a sense of purpose, even in the final days
Emotional and mental health peer support
Life review and legacy projects
Grief and bereavement support
Obituary and memorial writing
Home funeral support and vigil sitting
Celebration of life and ritual/ceremony creation
Coordination of resources and family facilitation
Management of digital identity and social media after death
