The Bereavement Doula
Workbook
You're choosing sacred, harrowing, heartbreaking, beautiful work. This workbook is for anyone willing to walk alongside families experiencing pregnancy and infant loss—whether it's an early miscarriage, a stillbirth, a neonatal death, or a termination for medical reasons. You won't find sanitized language that distances you from the reality of loss. You won't get platitudes about everything happening for a reason. Instead, you'll get honest, practical, evidence-based training from someone who's held hundreds of babies who never took a breath and sat with countless families saying goodbye far too early. Through eight chapters and five composite family stories, you'll learn the medical reality families face, how to support them through impossible decisions, what words actually help, how to honor their babies, and how to care for yourself in work that will change you. This is training in presence, not therapy. In witnessing, not fixing. In the profound difference that showing up with compassion and clarity makes in someone's darkest moments. You don't have to be perfect. You just have to be present. This workbook will teach you how.
