We all need help along our path.
Life is complicated and full of unknowns, loss, and difficult changes, but you don’t have to face them on your own.
Hello, I’m Alison!
I work with people who are facing some of life’s most difficult moments.
Life is beautiful, but it is also full of challenges, unexpected change, and loss. We are not meant to go through these struggles and transitions alone, but so many of us find ourselves feeling stuck, unsupported, and unable to move forward, or unable to find a sense of peace with the unknowns ahead. With a heart centered, trauma informed approach, I can walk alongside you to honor, empower and assist you through these difficult times.
Curious if we’re the right fit? Schedule a free, no commitment Discovery Call with me today to learn more and get started.
I am honored to help you return to your self amidst grief, loss, change, and transformations by embracing the power within yourself and inviting a kinship with our journey in the natural cycle of death and birth.

What is a Death Doula?
My role as a Death Doula is to walk alongside you and your loved ones before, during, and after End of Life.
End of life doesn’t follow a specific formula, nor does the work supporting it. This work can be applied following a terminal diagnosis, during the natural aging process, or I can be called in the days of someone’s death, or even after a loved one has passed to help friends and family process grief. Both Grief and End of Life Coaching are vital parts of Doula Work, along with Vigil Support and Remembrance/Legacy Projects. Schedule a free call with me today to talk about your needs and to start creating a customized plan.
Vigil Support: The days and hours leading to death is referred to as a Vigil, and doing Vigil work is one of my greatest honors in this life. In planning, we will set an intentional space for you or your loved one to pass, regardless of if it happens at home or in a facility. While I do not need to be present for the vigil to assist with the planning, having a doula on site allows loved ones to focus on their final moments without having to tend to logistics.
Remembrance/Legacy Projects: Creating something to leave behind something for your loved ones can be incredibly impactful for coming to a place of acceptance regarding death, as can creating a project to celebrate the life of your loved one. Here I can help envision, guide, facilitate, and as needed, assist in the creation of these projects. Additionally, as an artist, I can provide loved ones with a Soul Portrait of the deceased.
