Have you or your loved one been diagnosed with a terminal illness?
Are you wanting to have a say in how your transition will look?
Do you feel lost and have no idea where to turn or what options are available?
I would be honoured to walk you through this part of your journey, and put the control back in your hands.
As a certified Thanadoula, I provide non-medical compassionate support to you and your family.
From education, resources and planning, to end of life care and eulogies, I will be there for you every step of the way.
My name is Aleta Grace Mountney. I was born in Bancroft, Ontario and have
lived here most of my life. I spent 10 amazing years on Canada’s East Coast
before returning home in 2019. I was completely consumed by my love of the ocean
and found it very hard to leave but nothing compares to being with family.
I have 18+ years in long term care. Over the years, I have developed a solid
understanding and a vast experience when it comes to end of life care. It wasn’t
until recently that I was in a position to make my passion, my career.
My passion for palliative care began, when I supported my mom through her
transition. I was 19. My mother was a saint and we were all terrified of
“losing” her.
After embarking on this journey to becoming a death doula, I realized that what
we should have been terrified of, was wasting precious time being scared
when we still had time to celebrate together.
Life can be scary, but death doesn’t have to be.
Death can be a beautiful process, if you know what to expect and know that you
will transition on YOUR terms, with someone by your side the whole way.
I would love to share this gift with you.
