I realized that if something “happened” to one of us, we’d be left guessing each other’s wishes, and probably fighting about it. That realization led me to discover advance directives (have you completed yours?!), gather my siblings to fill them out, and open a door I couldn’t close: into the world of death, dying, and the deep relief that can come from having agency and planning ahead. I went on to volunteer with hospice, train as a death doula, and support new doulas as a Student Guide with Going with Grace. Two years into death work, the pandemic hit, and I realized it was time to retire from my career as a photographer in LA and fully commit myself to supporting people through end-of-life planning, death, grief, and some of the biggest transitions of being human. Wanting a deeper understanding of the psychological and embodied dimensions of this work eventually brought me to the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS), where I earned my Master’s in Somatic Psychology. My graduate training fundamentally changed the way I understand what it means to accompany someone through profound change: our bodies are not simply carrying our minds around. They hold information, memory, sensation, fear, grief, and wisdom of their own. Alongside my death doula and educational work, I also work clinically in a separate setting under supervision toward licensure in California. That experience continues to deepen the way I think about grief, relationships, identity, the body, and how humans navigate enormous change. The services offered through this website, however, are separate from my clinical work and are not psychotherapy or mental health treatment. Today, I offer concierge death doula support for people of all ages who are dying, as well as their families and chosen communities. My approach is deeply personalized, helping people navigate the emotional, practical, relational, and existential terrain that can accompany death and dying. My course and upcoming book, Help! I Have Aging Parents?!, grew out of my work with millennials and Gen Xers caring for aging loved ones. But my larger commitment is to helping people talk about the things we’re often taught not to talk about, and to helping people meet death with honesty, agency, curiosity, and as much choice as their circumstances allow. I live in the East Bay with my partner, our kids, and a small collection of beloved animals, including a cat who joined our family after a dear friend’s death and remains a daily reminder of the strange ways grief and love keep rearranging our lives. When I’m not having big conversations about being human, you’ll find me singing karaoke, going to Burning Man (10+ years), talking about my love of protein, or nerding out about gorgeous lighting while I take photos of the people I love. If you know what you need and think I can help, reach out. And if you have absolutely no idea what you need because this world can be incredibly overwhelming, you can reach out then, too. We can start with a free 20-minute call and figure out whether I’m the right person to support you. I’m with you. xx https://withcarolinelee.com/conciergeservices daily 0.75 2025-07-11 https://withcarolinelee.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-07-11 https://withcarolinelee.com/work-with-me daily 0.75 2021-11-01 https://withcarolinelee.com/judith-elder-matchmaking daily 0.75 2025-07-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612be23668f5a85a32b2a92f/436b7d90-ebdd-460c-822d-28c8fcc26829/intergenerational-homesharing-judith-caroline-lee-east-bay.jpg_.jpg https://withcarolinelee.com/death-doula-mentorship daily 0.75 2025-07-11 https://withcarolinelee.com/psychedelics daily 0.75 2026-08-30 https://withcarolinelee.com/grief daily 0.75 2026-08-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/612be23668f5a85a32b2a92f/36ea4d65-ab36-41b9-abcc-e0e665f4baa8/AgencyinDyingWebsiteHeaderImage4.jpg https://withcarolinelee.com/seasonal-recipes daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://withcarolinelee.com/seasonal-recipes/winter-dd8dx monthly 0.5 2020-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9e44e143969e061c2ed8fa/1588098122317-GHNA5X10ZKOOK1CW2ZGA/Stocksy_comp_2553271.jpg Seasonal recipes - Winter https://withcarolinelee.com/seasonal-recipes/autumn-4xrc2 monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9e44e143969e061c2ed8fa/1598838301614-7QKB13DWDQD05G443JUU/image-asset.jpeg Seasonal recipes - Autumn https://withcarolinelee.com/seasonal-recipes/summer-4b8m2 monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9e44e143969e061c2ed8fa/1598838475174-LG5R8ZQPXGOLHR8E7YTZ/image-asset.jpeg Seasonal recipes - Summer https://withcarolinelee.com/seasonal-recipes/spring-jr3sj monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9e44e143969e061c2ed8fa/1598838273757-ZASUDS1KTP7LUDZIMSEV/image-asset.jpeg Seasonal recipes - Spring https://withcarolinelee.com/meal-plans daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://withcarolinelee.com/meal-plans/immune-boosting-n5ex8 monthly 0.5 2020-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e9e44e143969e061c2ed8fa/1588180124685-J2ICHFRXOKJ9F0GOYVO6/image-asset.jpeg Meal plans - Immune Boosting - Breakfast Fresh fruit and feta salad It all begins with an idea.
