Did you know that there is a Northern NJ HPNA Chapter that covers the whole state of NJ?

I made it my life’s mission to promote the aging years as a sacred, beautiful, honorable stage of life.  I became a hospice volunteer and an eldercare specialist, aging companion, and end-of-life doula, a person who assists in the dying process, much like a birth doula does with the birthing process.  Working with elderly clients has been life affirming so much that I left a career of 20+ years to do it full time.  

I serve as a non-medical, elderly professional who specializes  in physical, emotional and spiritual care. I  meet my clients on their terms, see them as whole, and build relationships with them and their loved ones.   My self-care regimen, personal growth and intuition allow me to mindfully hold space and provide comfort for elderly people and their family in a non-judgmental, loving manner. My motto “heart to heart” is evident in the services that I provide.  

Holding this space decreases the stress and fears family members face, when caring for their loved ones. I am there whether they are in need of respite relief, work long hours or live long distance. I can help. Through extensive training, I  provide support, education, and suggestions for comfort. I have a toolkit of available resources to ease the anxious person and their family members including virtual “elder cams,” essential oils, crystals, healing, mindfulness practices, etc.  I am often referred to as “angels”, “Godsends”, “extraordinary”, “beyond belief” and words of the like.
