If you are not sure who to reach out to, that is completely normal. Find a Doula lets you search by what matters to your family, or write to us and we will help you choose.

I became a death doula after losing my father. That loss reoriented everything for me, how I think about time, presence, and what it actually means to show up for someone. I wanted to turn that into something useful, so I trained and became INELDA-certified and have volunteered with hospice patients and families since. I also hold an MSc through the Alef Trust and Liverpool John Moores University, where my research focused on what helps young adults find genuine flourishing after bereavement rather than just getting through it. That work shapes how I sit with people, less about managing a process, more about making room for whatever needs to happen. I founded Bear Witness because I kept seeing the same gap: families who needed this kind of support and had no clear way to find it. So beyond being a doula myself, I built the platform you're reading this on. I'm based in South Norwalk, CT, and work across the greater NYC/Fairfield County corridor.

I am a longtime hospice volunteer and death doula trained through Waveny LifeCare, INELDA, and Willow EOL. I came to this work after sitting with my own grandparents at the end of their lives — it's where I first understood what it means to witness someone’s final chapter with them, and it's why I later trained formally. I work on legacy projects, sit as part of a family's care team, and help coordinate information so people can make clear decisions and plans. I truly believe that facing end-of-life conversations honestly is affirmation of our love of life and can bring so much peace to the process. As a doula, I want to make hard rooms feel less hard — not by fixing anything, just by being fully there.

"We don't get to practice dying, we only get to prepare for it" is a guiding principal in my work. Because we don't normally talk about this, where to even begin? So I became the person I wish I'd had when I was going through it- the one who keeps showing up with compassion, conversation, humor when needed, ideas and a calm steady presence. I guide you through this difficult territory and help you avoid some of the chaos, to allow for a more peaceful and meaningful end of life for everyone involved. And I work with all of your existing medical and support teams too. I don't tell you what to do, but I’ve learned some things so I can help you figure out what's most important to you and your loved ones~
