As a professional photographer, I can help you capture some quiet, beautiful moments if you like. Even the hard moments can be a treasure.
I'm a professional makeup artist as well, and know there are times everyone could use a touch up. When my Dad was dying I needed eyebrow help. I'm here for you.
Having worked in skin care, pampering is something I always look for a way to offer...from a calming facial to a hand and arm massage.
I will tailor the experience and support you however you need. Email me and we can set up a phone consultation so I can learn how best to help you and your loved ones. I'm happy to work on a sliding scale...everyone should have access to this kind of help during some of the hardest times of life.
My path as a Death Doula started after my husband, Scott, died unexpectedly in 2022, at the same time my Mother started declining with dementia with me as her sole caregiver. After years of being an actor, passionate about exploring complex emotions and the human experience...everything changed in an instant and I realized I wanted to use that empathy and compassion in a different way. I wanted to help others maybe feel a little better, and have things a bit easier, than I did while going through the most difficult and gut-wrenching time of my life.
I became certified as a Death Doula through IAP College and a Grief Coach through David Kessler's foundation. I spent the first two years working in groups with other widows and learning how to process my own grief, which is a life long endeavor, as I'm sure you know.
Now I want to take what I've learned and help others. You don't have to go through this hard time by yourself. Community and support is the only thing that really helped me...if that's you too...I hope to hear from you for a free consultation and we can see if I can help take some of the burdens off your shoulders.
