Agent: Allison Hellegers

Jane K. Callahan has been a death doula for seven years, initially completing training with the International End-of-Life Doula Association (INELDA).

She holds a certificate in End-of-Life Planning from the University of Vermont’s Larner College of Medicine and is also certified by the National End-of-Life Doula Alliance. She has worked with four hospices in two states, and currently volunteers with Transitions LifeCare Hospice in Durham, North Carolina.
