Thana Doula (End of Life) Care

What is a Thana Doula?

A Thana Doula accompanies those approaching their end of life by creating space for the expression of the precious needs of all involved.  With the support of a thana doula, there is the potential for profound meaning and transformation for both the dying and for those who support them.

“Every man’s life ends the same way.  It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguishes one man from another.” ~Ernest Hemingway
