How much do these services cost?

Information about fees is available by email upon request. I offer clear, thoughtfully structured packages that can be tailored to your needs and the length of time you would like to work together. You are always welcome to share a bit about what brought you to my website so I can understand what direction you may be heading in and provide the most relevant information for you.

How do I know this is for me or my family?
Whether you’re planning ahead intentionally or responding to a recent diagnosis, advanced care planning is more important than many people realize. It brings clarity and comfort to you and your loved ones. This process allows you to show your family what a good death looks like, which is the last meaningful gift you can provide for them.

Do these plans include legal documents?
While this process helps you understand what matters most and prepares you to make informed decisions, legal documents must be completed with an attorney. A MOLST/POLST* will require a physician’s signature, and some individuals find that having a notary offers peace of mind for other documents, like your Health Care Proxy.

I’m uncomfortable with this topic. Can you help address this?
Absolutely. Many people feel overwhelmed or unsure when discussing death and dying. My approach is structured and adaptable to your comfort level, guiding you through the process at a pace that feels right for you. It’s natural to have concerns, and I’m here to help.

What if I have complicated family dynamics?
Planning is invaluable in these situations because it provides direction and reduces confusion for your loved ones. Discomfort around death is common for adults and children alike. You can choose to share as much or as little as you wish about your relationships. The process offers structure and support, so you won’t have to navigate these sensitive topics alone.

This sounds interesting, but I’m not ready to pay for these services. Can I learn more first?
Of course! You’re welcome to schedule a complimentary 20-minute discovery call to ask questions, get a feel for the process, and determine if it’s the right fit for you. Everything we discuss is confidential.

How long does the planning process take?
The length of the planning process varies depending on your needs and preferences. Some individuals may feel ready to move forward quickly, while others may need more time for reflection and discussion. I’ll work with you at your pace.

Can I include my family in the planning conversations?

While the advanced planning process is one-on-one to ensure your privacy and establish your wishes, celebrant conversations can include your family.
