"Friend of your soul, teacher, companion, guide. One who you can share your innermost self, your mind and your heart."

Welcome to Anam Cara Doula
Compassionate Support for Your End-of-Life Journey
At Anam Cara Doula, I am here to provide comfort and support to individuals and their families during the end-of-life journey. My goal is to ensure that your final days are filled with dignity, respect, and peace. Whether it's emotional support, practical assistance, or simply being a listening ear, I am here to help in any way. I offer a safe space for you to express your emotions. I am dedicated to walking alongside you as you process your transition and find moments of peace amidst your pain.
​
I have a spent a lifetime cultivating my doula heart: whether baking cakes for the Ministry of Consolation, or as a long-time volunteer at Ronald McDonald House where I have encountered, accompanied, and loved so many families facing serious health crises and the loss of their beautiful children. Way at the other end of life's spectrum, I served as a volunteer at Parker Jewish Institute to provide care and comfort to senior hospice patients with terminal diagnoses. As a companion and grief guide, I have been called a patient's "last new best friend".
​
It is my honor to serve knowing that my heart can hold what your heart cannot bear alone. May we all live and transition with peace and ease.
​
With Grace & Gratitude,
Barbara Berg
