Deathcare Series
I am offering a series of three gatherings that will culminate with a practical experience of how to provide care for someone at home following their death.
This "Deathcaring Series" will be relevant to anyone who has taken death doula courses and wants some additional, and hands-on, training in physical deathcare to add to their “toolbox”. The series will also be helpful to individuals, or couples, who are exploring what a “good death” means and want to understand more about reclaiming traditions of caring for our loved ones after their death, including how to have a family-led/home funeral.
The series of three gatherings are offered together since each one builds the foundation for the next. Space is limited to a small group and the cost is $200 per person for the series. Since it will be a small group there is flexibility on the day or time offered.
Please contact me directly to be added to list for the Fall 2025 group.
