Illness and Death Companionship

I offer emotional, practical, and spiritual companionship to individuals and their loved ones facing illness or end of life.

Support may unfold in different ways, depending on your circumstances:

• Facing a new diagnosis - being present in the shock of difficult news, helping you understand options, supporting conversations with loved ones, and witnessing whatever emotions arise. Support at this time may also include help organising practical matters, so you can focus on living.
• Living with ongoing illness - accompanying you through the daily realities of serious illness, exploring fears and hopes, navigating treatments and decisions, supporting you through treatments, and facilitating honest conversations with loved ones. Support at this time may also include advocacy, creative legacy projects, and spiritual exploration.
• Preparing for death - creating sacred space around dying, helping organise final wishes, offering meaningful rituals if wanted, reading poetry or prayers, using essential oils, playing music, holding vigil, and supporting family through this passage.
• Ongoing support for loved ones - providing continuity of contact after death, offering gentle companionship and ongoing presence in the early days of grief.
