Tending the Soul

End-of-Life Support for You and Your Loved Ones

You or someone you love has arrived here—perhaps facing a terminal diagnosis or the imminent death of a dear one—and you’re unsure of what comes next. You may be wondering: Who can I turn to? What kind of support will carry us through this uncertain time?

As a compassionate end-of-life facilitator, I offer emotional, spiritual, and practical support for individuals and families navigating the dying process. I help reduce fear and isolation by guiding honest conversations about death and dying, creating a safe space for reflection, connection, and a peaceful transition.

Together, we co-create a comforting end-of-life environment, considering how the space looks, sounds, and feels. I assist with end-of-life planning, legacy or memory projects, and after-death care arrangements, helping ease the burden on loved ones and bridge gaps in care. I also honor spiritual traditions through prayer, meditation, silence, or ritual.

Fluent in English, Spanish, and Hebrew, I offer a multicultural, inclusive approach to end-of-life care, supporting diverse beliefs and making sure every story, every voice, and every sacred goodbye is held with care.

We all face our own mortality in a unique way. I know this because in 2023 I was diagnosed with stage IV melanoma and had to confront mine head-on. It wasn’t easy—it was terrifying, and grief weighed heavily on me. More than anything, I longed for presence—people willing to sit with me in my fear, to ask the hard questions not just about death, but also about joy, faith, and meaning. These conversations helped me feel seen and allowed me to view my own life from a greater altitude.
