Helping you fulfill your final wishes.
Dying isn’t a medical event… It is a human one.
We have accompanied each other through the bookends of life – birth and death – since the beginning of time. In many cultures specific individuals held the role of guide through these significant life events. They eased physical and spiritual pain, shepherded life across the threshold, celebrated and blessed those involved, and reaffirmed the communal understanding of these life cycle experiences.
Welcome to Empyrean
Empyrean means the highest part of heaven, the celestial sphere of pure light and fire, the open sky. It speaks to expansiveness, illumination, transformation, and the possibility of finding light even in life’s most uncertain moments.
At Empyrean, we believe that some of life’s most profound transitions ask us not to have all the answers, but to feel supported as we move through them. Whether you are facing the end of life, navigating grief and loss, caring for someone you love, or standing at the threshold of personal change, you do not have to find your way alone.
Through compassionate end-of-life support, grief care, coaching, education, and meaningful conversation, Empyrean creates space for what is real: the questions, the sorrow, the love, the uncertainty, and the hope that can exist alongside them.
Like the open sky, there is room here for all of it.
Empyrean is a place to be supported through endings, strengthened through transitions, and reminded that even when the path changes, there is still life to be lived, meaning to be discovered, and light to be found.
What is an End of Life Death Doula?
A Death Doula is a non-medical person trained to care for someone holistically (physically, emotionally and spiritually) at the end of life. Death Doulas are also known around the world as: end of life coaches, soul midwives, transition guides. death coaches, doula to the dying, end of life doulas, death midwives, and end of life guides.
What do Death Doulas Do?
Death Doulas are people who support people in the end of life process, much like a midwife or doula with the birthing process. It is “a new non-medical profession” that recognizes death as a natural, accepted, and honored part of life. One might say that death midwifery is to hospice palliative care as birth midwifery is to obstetrics.
Who Hires Death Doulas?
Death Doulas are here to serve humanity. We serve anyone ranging from young, elderly, terminally ill, healthy, caretakers and even pets. End of life doulas complement the care from hospitals, hospices, and funeral homes by filling in the gaps that occur during the dying process.
