We need to talk about death and dying.

Acknowledging that we are all going to deal with death eventually is the first step in creating a supportive and understanding culture around death and grief. Individuals who are terminally ill, grieving, or in any way handling the emotional, social, and logistical effects of death deserve support. We can create a world in which the burdens of death, such as legal arrangements, funeral or medical costs, bereavement, or grief, weigh a little less heavily on all of us, allowing us to live a better life in turn.

My goal is to open a practice to provide emotional,
logistical, and social end-of-life, grief, and death care.

Emotional death care includes grief counseling, group therapy, and other individual approaches to easing the emotional burdens of death, dying, and grief.

Logistical death care is the process of providing options - hospice care resources, funeral and burial choices, and other education about the rights and choices open to those in dying or mourning.

Social death care is the act of advocating for social and economic equity within the sphere of grief and death care such as advocating for policy to guarantee paid bereavement leave to all workers, the breaking of funeral home monopolies, or a path towards medical debt relief.
