Tina Thornton
End of Life CoachMy heart has been pulling me in this direction since the loss of my mother 11 years ago. Cancer stole her from me in a slow painful battle. However, I was fortunate enough to have the strength to help her follow her needs. In a living celebration of life, and getting her moved to hospice for the last 12hrs of her life. I was there holding her hand all the time, for the last minutes of her life and longer. I know we found strength in each other and most importantly we did it her way. I lost my dad just 5years later and we did it his way. Throughout the years to follow I mourned with a best friend through her battle and was there for her daughter. My best friend lost her dad, and although they were so many miles away I coached from afar, being there to listen and give support. Dying, I believe needs all kinds of support. I am here to help both patient and families with dying and how that looks and feels. Also to help with communication, between friends, family and medical teams.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is an end of life coach?
End of life coach is the term we use to refer to our death doulas. We don't like to use the term death doula, simply because its about so much more than dying. We are here as friends, companions, and guides. Our services and offerings are expanded to more than the dying. We also support the families and those left behind, as well as preserving memories and easing this transition.
-
Are services available only for the individual?
We offer services for those who are passing or those dealing with death in one way or another. We are here for you whether you are departing or dealing with someone who has. We understand this is a hard time regardless and extend our helping hand to all. We welcome you to reach out so we can get you in touch with one of our professional and empathetic coaches.
-
Why does it matter?
No one should have to take this last journey alone. We believe everyone regardless of how they've spent their time on earth deserves a peaceful rest. We are here to support all and offer a companionate and loving hand to help on this vitally important journey.
