Death Doula Support in Utah

Virtual and in-person guidance for end-of-life planning, legacy work, and bedside & bereavement care.

Why work with a death doula?

Choosing to add a death doula to your support system can be an empowering decision that helps reduce overwhelm during one of life’s most sensitive seasons. When you hire me as your doula, you are receiving:

No two people are the same, and so, neither will any two death experiences be exactly alike. Their end-of-life care should be no different.

 Although I offer most of my services in an easily-digestable package format, my work is available a la carte. Take what you need. Leave the rest.

When you tally up the cost of dying, it quickly grows to a staggering amount. I strive to keep my fees ethical, attainable, and clear-cut. Following our consultation, I will build a curated package of services based upon the circumstances of your case. My quote and payment schedule (if applicable) will be clearly displayed, and there are no additional fees beyond what is articulated in your package.

I'm Niki. Thank you for joining me here.

Support through living, dying, and grieving with a death doula, grief guide, and guided autobiographer.

The heart of my work is to empower you to live and die meaningfully and according to your values. To that end, I offer virtual biography services, where we can tell your life’s story in a printed book, or honor a loved one (or yourself!) through the writing of obituary and eulogy. My work centers upon the idea that viewing life with an eye towards finitude helps us live with intention and purpose: living presently while still striving towards the future.

Through our work together, I help you face your mortality and create meaning through the telling of your stories. In so doing, you become empowered to live with intention and create your legacy.

What else can you help me with?

What’s important to you both in death and life? What does a life well-lived look like, FOR YOU, regardless of how much time remains? Your answers will shape our plan moving forward. EVERYONE can benefit from a session or two of this deep exploration!
