Why a Death Doula?
A death doula is a teacher, guide and support for people facing death and loss. As we live in a death-denying and grief-phobic culture in the U.S.A, there is abundant space for transformation. Like birth doulas, death doulas serve an essential function in our society addressing significant gaps. Root and Soar Together’s specialities are mentoring others who seek to serve as Death Doulas and direct grief support for individuals, families and communities navigating loss.
Why a Life Doula?
A life doula is a teacher, guide and mentor for people not feeling alive. Building upon her tools learned as a school counselor, Amy found energy care and Reiki to expand her tools for compassionate living and self-discovery. Amy specializes in heart-work; serving as a guide for you to integrate and make meaning of your life experiences, expand your limits and trust your light. To discover the beauty of everyday life aligned with shining one’s own unique light in service of the wellbeing of the world.
Vessel of love
Amy’s path to guiding people with death, dying, life and living is possible thanks to her many teachers, mentors and guides.

“The Heart that breaks open can contain the whole universe.”
