"What the caterpillar calls the end, the rest of the world calls a butterfly."
—Lao Tzu
Mission
At Sacred Haven, my mission is to companion individuals and families through the threshold of dying with presence, compassion, and dignity. I provide holistic support that honors life as a sacred passage, weaving together attentive care, ritual, and guidance so no one faces the end of life alone.
Vision
I envision a culture where death is embraced as a natural part of life — not hidden or feared, but approached with reverence, preparation, and grace. In this vision, families feel supported, communities cultivate courage in the face of loss, and each life is honored through presence, meaning, and remembrance.
Values
Presence — Offering stillness, listening, and a calm anchor at life’s threshold.
Compassion — Meeting each individual and family with empathy, care, and a heart open to their story.
Dignity — Honoring autonomy, choices, and cultural or spiritual traditions with respect.
Integrity — Serving with honesty, transparency, and professionalism in all aspects of care.
Sacredness — Recognizing dying as a profound passage, holding space with reverence and intention.
Community — Nurturing connection so that families and communities may support one another in grief and love.
