Master of Divinity from Union Theological Seminary + 4 units of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE).
Certified End-of-Life / Death doula. Bereavement counseling, home funerals, shrouding and body care.
APPROACH
Today, "doula" is an umbrella term for compassionate, individualized accompaniment, Sometimes this includes advocacy. Other times it may include emotional support for an important event, swaddling, or shrouding - whether literal or metaphorical. Whether working as a doula, chaplain, or intentional companion, I strive to listen, discern and support what is emergent in each unique situation. My approach is somatically centered, decolonial, trauma informed, consent-conscious, culturally curious, time-queer, and with special attention to the non-verbal and non-vocal.
