Stephanie Miller,
Cancer Doula

Helping women touched by cancer find hope, calm, and joy through personal coaching, mindfulness, aromatherapy, and more.

"We met Stephanie when our lives had been shattered by "cancer". We didn't understand what an immense array of emotion we were feeling, we were adrift and felt abandoned.

Then we met Stephanie and poured our hearts out to her. She became our beacon of light, hope, assurance and affirmation. Assuring us that we hadn't gone crazy and all of our feelings were real and it's ok not to be ok. Stephanie you are amazing and can't thank you enough for being our anchor. Cancer is terrifying but Stephanie will help you fight this battle."

A Look Inside The Cancer Journey

The Diagnosis

Cancer comes as a scary diagnosis leaving feelings of disbelief, fear, sadness, anxiety, shame, guilt, lack of independence. You or your loved one with cancer may feel overwhelmed when faced with it. There are so many unknowns. The impact on the mental wellbeing can leave you stressed and afraid.

Medical Appointments / Treatment

The first few medical visits are overwhelming with the comprehensive overview and literature presented including treatment plans, possible surgery, and other testing information. So much information is delivered to you and your family that it can be hard to understand and digest. So many questions come up and information may be forgotten. Patient and family may have no medical background depending solely on their Oncology medical team for guidance.

Cancer Doula

Cancer is a life changing experience that doesn't have to be gone through alone. Every individual has a unique experience in their own cancer journey. Having an advocate who has had personal cancer experience can offer emotional comfort and guidance in addition to using medical knowledge to help explain medical processes, navigate the cancer journey outside the hospital, and offer what is personally needed to thrive.

"Knowing you are not alone, together, we will walk through the dark and uncertain time and make it a little brighter."

“When you get a cancer diagnosis it’s very overwhelming, physically and mentally. The doctors don’t provide much emotional support…that is why I reached out to Stephanie. She is amazing and so positive! I always leave her office feeling hopeful.

I couldn’t have gotten through those first scary months without her! She gave me tips on how to prepare my body prior to chemotherapy, introduced me to essential oils, Reiki, and so much more! If and when you or a loved one face that dreaded C word, reach out to Stephanie! She will get you through it!
