About Willow
Experience: 10 yrs
I would love to discuss the opportunity to care for your loved one. My training includes the Wise Woman Tradition, Shamanism, Reiki, Associates Degree in Occupational Science, Death Doula and pSychopomp, Yoga and Breath work. My 15+ years experience working with Seniors, Body Mechanics and Mobility Recovery has opened up many forms of both healing and moving through intense Emotional Transitions. I have working experience with both live in care and respite care. I have had the privilege of holding space for and planning the final hours. I have experience with medications, feeding tubes, emotional support, grief, hygiene, bathing, meal prep, advocate and extra ear for clarity. I act as an extension of the loved ones, treating each experience with the love, respect and commitment I would my own. I am a loyal and fierce advocate that will look at every perspective to ensure your loved one's best interest is priority. Quality, Comfort and Emotional Support

Willow is a deeply kind person and an ultimate professional. She has a rare depth of compassion, which is reinforced by respect for each individual’s path. There is no judgment with her - only open, caring presence. Willow is also a pleasure to have in one’s home and makes for an easy guest. She is excellent asking questions about house best practices and then following them thoroughly. Ultimately, what is truly unique about Willow is her abundant, undimming joy for life that is well balanced with ability to be with people going through pain and suffering. She has the capacity to go into the darkness with people and hold their hand through it, honoring their integrity, and softening their trials with her humor and warmth.
