Ember of the new Ash of the end Echo of the memories
Hello, I’m Christy - a sacred listener, a witness to life's threshold moments, and a companion to those walking through them. This is the work I am here to do.
Through Ember, Ash & Echo, I offer rituals and ceremonies for life’s most meaningful thresholds—Commitment Ceremonies, funerals, end-of-life transitions, and the tender spaces in between.
My work is rooted in the belief that beginnings and endings are equally sacred—that love deserves ceremony, that death deserves reverence, and that the soul's journey is worthy of witnessing. Whether we’re welcoming a new chapter, honoring a final breath, or creating space for deep remembrance, I meet each moment with heart, presence, and care.
With training in sacred deathcare, celebrancy, and energy work, I bring a spiritual lens to this work—honoring the seen and unseen, the ember and the ash, and all the echoes that remain.
This work is not just about events—it’s about tending the soul through life’s sacred turns.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here!
What I offer
Sacred Deathcare Guide - Death Doula
Companioning the soul through the final threshold.
Death is not a medical event—it is a sacred passage. A soul journey. A threshold as meaningful and mysterious as birth.
Through my work in Sacred Deathcare, I offer heart-centered, soul-guided support for individuals, families, and communities as they navigate the dying process and the tender time that follows. This may include emotional and energetic support for the dying, guidance in creating personal rituals, vigil planning, body and space blessing, or simply holding presence in the liminal.
I have trained with death doula and ritual experts Sarah Kerr (The Centre for Sacred Deathcare) and Diane Hullet (Best Life Best Death), whose teachings shape my grounded, ceremonial, and deeply spiritual approach. My work honors both the practical and the profound—the logistics of death, and the mystery of what lies beyond it.
Sacred Deathcare may include:
Energetic support and soul-tending for the dying
MAiD Companionship
Respite care
Bedside Companionship
Vigil planning and guidance
Legacy projects and life review
Body blessing and after-death ceremonies
Companioning through anticipatory grief or early bereavement
Whether you are approaching death, walking alongside someone who is, or tending to your own fear and curiosity around it—I offer gentle, non-judgmental support, grounded in reverence, ritual, and presence.
You do not have to walk this path alone.
There is beauty, even here.
Celebrant Services
Ceremony that speaks the language of the soul.
As a celebrant, I create and guide bespoke ceremonies that honor life’s most meaningful moments—from unions of love to farewells of the heart.
Whether you’re standing at the altar, scattering ashes to the wind, or gathering to mark a quiet soul shift, I hold space with deep reverence and intuitive care. Each ceremony is shaped in collaboration with you—rooted in your values, your story, your spiritual or secular traditions.
This is not about scripted words or one-size-fits-all rituals.
This is about truthful, heartfelt ceremony—crafted to reflect who you are and what this moment means.
The Embers of a Commitment of Love:
Vow renewal Ceremonies: Reaffirm your love and commitment to one another.
Commitment Ceremonies: A ceremony of your love and commitment without the legalities of the traditional marriage
The Ashes of a life well lived:
Funerals and Memorials: Sacred farewells that reflect the life, love, and spirit of those who’ve passed.
End-of-Life Ceremonies: Living tributes, legacy rituals, and threshold blessings.
If you are crossing a threshold, I am here to walk beside you—gently, soulfully, and with ceremony that echoes.
