" Grief never ends...but it changes. It's a passage, not a place to stay.
Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith...it is the price of love. "
~ Elizabeth I ~
For individuals who:
- need help processing everything
- are experiencing early grief
- are experiencing early grief
What to expect:
During this final phase of the 3 step doula approach, I will support your loved ones through remembering you and conducting a closing ritual. Typically this phase begins 3-6 weeks after you have passed, to give your loved ones a chance to catch their breath and process what has happened. I will be available at any time, but find that talking deeply before the shock component of grief has transpired can serve less of a purpose. We can sit and retell how this experience transpired and how your loved one's are managing without you.
Peace of mind:
I will ensure your loved ones have the resources they need to use if they feel like they need assistance along the way. I will also make it clear that I am only a phone call, text or email away if they may ever need to reach out in the future. This time spent with you and your family means a lot to me and I want to continue to be a point of reference if ever needed.
