Kristen Vermilyea is an American filmmaker, writer, artist, creative consultant, and death doula. Calling herself a “good girl provocateur”, she focuses on themes of feminism, body image, aging, identity, motherhood, sexuality, objectification, death, and mourning. Her latest project is a documentary film called DEATH VIRGIN where she explores themes of mourning and grief, and asks the question: Can we be taught how to mourn and practice before we are faced with the deaths of close loved ones?
She has also created a Death Doula practice in Zurich focused on helping English-speaking* terminally-ill people and their loved ones by creating and holding space for them as they navigate their end-of-life journey.
