Judith Zaruches
Hi, I'm Judith. I'm an end-of-life doula and educator, and I'm a co-founder of the Metro Phoenix End-of-Life Professional Network.
I have been curious about death since I was a child treated at Mayo Clinic Hospital in Rochester, Minnesota. My professional career included work as a hospital social worker, studying with Elisabeth Kubler Ross, and working as director of volunteers at a hospice organization.
In 2023, after I supported several dear friends and their families during their final days, I trained to be an end-of-life doula. This education heightened my awareness of the taboos around death.
I came to the realization that a lack of understanding of this crucial experience can cause unnecessary suffering for ourselves and our loved ones.
I'm always happy to connect with and support people and families as they think about end-of-life planning. Please reach out to me at Judith@EOLResource.com
