Our Doulas
Elena, CEOLD
Elena companions the dying and the grieving. She specializes in helping people process their life experience and find a sense of completeness and closure. She also enjoys guiding people through the process of creating a legacy that celebrates and dignifies our and our loved one’s lives.
After surviving a life threatening illness herself, Elena embarked on what would become a 10 year study of the human condition and human behavior. Her vast life experiences have given her an understanding and compassion for the pain in all of life’s difficult situations. She has many years of learned wisdom to share in comfort. She has faced her own mortality which has made her passionate about encouraging people to uncover what brings them bliss and follow it at all costs. We are meant and deserve to be happy.
Elena is a Shamanic Healing Student, Reiki Practitioner and Aromatherapist.
Elena is located in Easton, PA and works in the tri-state area.
Dawn, CEOLD
Dawn has been a practicing Doula for over 4 years and she specializes in helping people fill out advance care directives as well as creating and implementing vigil plans for a good death. Her passion is to spread the word about Death Doulas and how we can help people in the moments it matters the most. We have a lot of help when we come into this world and there should be just as much support when we leave. Death is a community event, not a medical one.
Dawn is located in Allentown, PA.
Kim (she/her) CEOLD, LMT
With dignity, Kim brings her genuine kind nature, peaceful & calming presence, and 20 plus years of experience as a licensed massage therapist to her work as an end of life doula. She completed training through the International End of Life Doula Association (INELDA). And has also completed many hours alongside hospice, working in homes, inpatient units, nursing homes, and other sacred spaces. She is a state licensed and nationally certified massage therapist as well as a member of INELDA.
As a holistic end of life caregiver, her goal is to offer a gentle, openhearted approach to the dying person and their loved ones. Her primary gift is the ability to be a grounding and supportive presence for individuals (and their families!) during an intensely profound, heart-wrenching and emotional time.
Kim holds an immeasurable passion for her life's work, as they intertwine, and feels incredibly grateful to each and every being that invites her into their lives through the power and comfort of love & gentle touch. All colors, genders, size & ages, beliefs, cultures…all are welcomed!
Kim is located in Nazareth, PA.
