Many people know the five stages of grief as: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance - thanks to Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and her book On Death and Dying. What’s less known is that these stages were first meant to describe the emotional journey of people facing their own terminal illness (Dying), NOT those grieving the loss of a loved one.

Even Kübler-Ross herself clarified that these “stages” were never meant to be a strict framework for everyone experiencing loss. Her work aimed to bring understanding and compassion to those approaching the end of life.

Here’s what research and experts now share:

👉Misuse of the Model: The stages were intended as a helpful guide, not a strict timeline or universal pattern. Many have misunderstood them as a rigid roadmap, causing people to worry they’re “doing grief wrong” if their experience looks different.

👉Grief Is Not Linear: Modern grief support and research show that grief is unique, non-linear, and often unpredictable - more of a personal journey than a series of boxes to check.

👉Kübler-Ross’ Own Clarification: She emphasized that the “stages” are not universal and can overlap, be skipped, or arrive in any order. Her work was meant to describe, not prescribe.

👉Risks of a Rigid Mindset: Viewing grief as a step-by-step process can lead to guilt or confusion. Your experience may look very different, and that’s okay. There’s no “right” way. We encourage you to honor your own path.

At TransitionCraft, we honor the individuality of every death journey and every grief journey.

What does a death doula actually do?
It’s a question I’m often asked, sometimes with curiosity and sometimes with quiet hesitation.

Here are some answers to help you understand our role in your time of transition:

We are not medical.
We don’t arrive with a cure or a plan.
We arrive with presence.
With intention.
With reverence.
We’re here to offer support in the places medicine doesn’t reach:
The emotional.
The spiritual.
The relational.
The human.
We help prepare the practical.
We sit with the grief.
We sit in the silence.
We welcome the sacred.
We don’t fix. We don’t save. We don’t bypass.
We walk with. We witness. We serve.
Every death is as unique as the life that came before it, and we honour both.
