Christine Grace Parker

Person-centered Support

Christine Grace Parker is a Certified End-of-Life Doula, Hospice Volunteer Coordinator, Hypnotherapist, and Reiki Master. In her practice, she emphasizes compassionate presence, person-centered support, and holistic care at the end of life. She oversees the recruitment, training, and support of hospice volunteers, while contributing to the development of an end-of-life doula program within hospice.

Her calling to end-of-life care emerged from her experiences as a young caregiver and from navigating the loss of her mother, experiences that continue to shape her work today. End-of-life doula training through the Caredoula School of Accompanying the Dying helped her integrate those experiences and deepen her commitment to supporting others on their end-of-life journey. Her work with hospice volunteers is rooted in the belief that no one should experience caregiving, dying, or grief alone.

Christine maintains a private practice and is the founder of Graceful Guides, offering hypnotherapy and Reiki to support clients in managing pain, reducing anxiety, and creating meaningful change through work with the subconscious mind and energy body. She serves the Greater St. Louis area. Her professional background includes facilitating therapeutic art and movement in memory care and assisted living communities, as well as experience in dance instruction and animal welfare. Outside of her professional roles, she is active in her spiritual community, facilitates workshops in death literacy, guided meditation, and movement, and is the mother of a vibrant and creative ten-year-old.
