Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) in Victoria, BC

If you're here, you're likely facing big questions, either for you or someone you love.

MAiD is nuanced.  Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, curious, conflicted, or seeking clarity.

This page is created to help you consider how to navigate this transition with presence. Because it's more than a procedure, it's a threshold moment.

Whether you’re exploring it for yourself or supporting someone who is, you are welcome here.

Meeting Medical Assistance in Dying with Intention

A steady companion for navigating deep waters with clarity, reverence, and care.

Before MAiD: Preparing with Clarity and Intention

Whether you're the person choosing MAiD or you're supporting someone who is, we slow it down and make space for clear plans, honest conversations, and meaningful choices.

  • Family conversations to explore values, wishes, and emotional terrain
  • Holistic end-of-life planning, including The Empowered Estate
  • Preplanning cremation or green burial with Earth’s Option
  • Guidance on how to support your loved one with presence and compassion
  • Living funerals and celebration of life planning
  • Ceremony, ritual, and intention setting for the journey ahead

During MAiD: Holding Sacred Space on the Day

The day of MAiD is significant. I help you shape this time with care, so it reflects who you are and what matters most, with less overwhelm.

  • Preparing for the day itself: what to expect, how it might look, who should be present
  • Creating personalized rituals and ceremony around the death
  • Supportive presence and guidance for loved ones
  • Tending to the emotional, spiritual, and energetic needs of the dying and their circle
  • Time of death ritual and tending to the spirit
  • Honouring the threshold moment with reverence and calm

After MAiD: Meaningful Closure and Care

Once death has occurred, there’s still tending to be done. I support families and chosen kin through the early grief and practical next steps.

  • Post-death care of the body (natural, respectful, and in alignment with your values)
  • Waiting for the funeral home, providing comfort and clarity with this next step
  • Organizing an intentional post-death gathering, funeral, celebration of life
  • Follow-up conversations and integration
  • Lasting memorialization
