An End-of-Life Companion provides non-medical, holistic support to people living with a life-limiting illness and to those who love and care for them. Support may include emotional, practical, spiritual and educational guidance before, during and after death.

An End-of-Life Companion does not provide medical or personal care. Instead, I work alongside doctors, nurses, hospice teams and other healthcare professionals by offering time, presence, emotional support, practical guidance and companionship.

You don’t have to wait until the final days of life. Many people find it helpful to seek support soon after a terminal diagnosis, while other reach out when caring becomes overwhelming or as death approaches. Support can be beneficial at any stage of journey.

I support people living with a life-limiting illness, their partners, family members, friends and caregivers. My care extends to everyone who is affected by the journey.

Support can be provided in your home, in aged residential care, hospice, or hospital, depending on the circumstances and what is appropriate. I also offer support by phone or email when an in-person visit isn’t possible.

This depends on your individual needs and my availability. We can discuss the level of support required and whether overnight companioning is appropriate.

Yes. Sometimes family members simply need time to rest, attend appointments or spend time with other loved ones. Having a trusted companion sit quietly with their loved one can provide valuable peace of mind.Item description

Yes. While every person’s experience is unique, I can provide gently education about the changes that commonly occur as the body approaches the end of life. Understanding what is happening often helps reduce fear and uncertainty.Item description

Yes. I can help you explore your wishes, facilitate conversations with loved ones and assist in documenting what is important to you. I do not provide legal advice but can guide you towards appropriate resources and professionals.Item description

Yes. These conversations can be difficult, but they are often incredibly meaningful. I can help create a safe, compassionate space where family members can discuss hopes, fears, wishes and practical plans.

Yes. Spiritual support is offered in a way that honours your own beliefs, values and traditions. It is not based on any particular religion and is always led by your preferences.

That’s completely okay. Many families feel uncertain when they first reach out. We can begin with a conversation about your situation, your concerns and your hopes, and together decide how I may be able to help.

Yes. I can remain with the family immediately after death if requested, provide guidance on what happens next, support personal rituals or farewells, and offer information about bereavement support and available resources.

Yes, absolutely. Your privacy is always respected. Any information shared with me remains confidential unless there is a legal or ethical obligation to disclose it.

Simply contact me by email through the Contact Me page. We can arrange a time to talk about your circumstances, answer your questions and discuss whether my support is the right fit for you. There is no obligation to proceed.

Yes. Legacy work can include writing letters, recording stories creating memory boxes, documenting family history, celebrating milestones, or finding meaningful ways to express love and gratitude.

There is no right or wrong time. Whether you are planning ahead, adjusting to a new diagnosis or facing the final days of life, support is available whenever you feel you would benefit from having someone walk alongside you.

Nothing. I believe that nobody should have to make their final journey alone. I will walk with you, your family, and those impacted and support people in a way that is meaningful and appropriate for no charge at all.
