What services do Death Doula's provide? 

In general Death Doulas are resource professionals in the area of death and dying. They provide consults to determine the level of service. 

Death Doulas support individuals/families to gather documents, explore funeral options, support during active dying,  wrapping up affairs post-death, organize paperwork and access referrals. 

The needs of each individual is different, therefore the services offered are individualized.

DO YOU PLAN FUNERALS?

Passing with Peace provides a network of resources and professionals to meet each individual's specific desires and end of life plan. At this time we do not plan funerals directly but we do assist families with strategies/resources to complete the process.
