The Benefits of Considering a Death Doula

End-of-life doulas are compassionate and knowledgeable guides who can walk with you through death and grief. When you or a loved one inevitably faces death, there can be an overwhelming feeling of What do I do now? What do I do with these feelings… and all this paperwork? End-of-life doulas (also called death doulas or death coaches) are compassionate and knowledgeable guides who can walk with you through death and grief. The experience of supporting a childhood friend through her death at the age of 27 motivated Ashley Johnson, president of the National End-of-life Doula Alliance, to commit herself to this role. Death is something no one likes to talk about, but they are there to help people navigate the ins and outs of dealing with it. The services they provide are varied and flexible, and include advance health care planning, practical training for family caregivers, and companionship to patients. What more about these services?
