More About Alison Nail-Malone and End-of-Life Doulas:
Alison Nail-Malone is the founder of Miseria and Malone Consultants Group. She is an international award-winning Coach, certified Grief Educator, and accredited Death Doula. A bereaved daughter and caretaker, Alison understands the deep pain of grief, while still finding a way to lead her teams and run a successful business.
An End-of-Life Doula is a non-medical person trained to care for someone holistically (physically, emotionally, and spiritually) at the end of life. End of Life Doulas are also known around the world as end-of-life coaches, soul midwives, transition guides, death coaches, death doulas, doula to the dying, end-of-life doulas, death midwives, thanadoula, and end of life guides.
Alison’s work focuses on creating a safe space for the one dying and the family to engage in the emotional and spiritual labor needed to prepare for death.
Her End-of-Life process is designed to facilitate a “good death,” according to the wishes of the dying person to ensure their wishes are honored during the Vigil time when the person is actively dying. Beyond the death, Alison can also facilitate some early grief work with families by having them reflect, talk about their experience of the dying process, and guide them to additional grieving resources.
