PRE PLANNING

HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
We've all heard stories of families having to make tough decisions in a short amount of time. If you don't decide in advance what will happen after you're gone and you don't begin to plan for it, who will do it for you?

Most families no longer live in close proximity to each other. In the final days and years of life, friends and family should be able to focus on each other, share memories, and celebrate a life well-lived instead of worrying about what's going to happen next.  As a steward of "conscious dying," you will serve as a teacher and a model to your family now and later of what living fully and preparing for death in advance can look like. 


​Having your affairs in order in case you can no longer manage them is one of the most empowering and responsible things you can do, and an invaluable gift that shows you care to ease the burden on your family when the time comes. Planning in advance saves considerable time, money, and effort for those whom we love the most. The days and weeks leading up to or after someone has passed away can be overwhelming: dealing with accounts, personal effects, canceling services -- all the while working through anticipated grief and mourning.  Put your love in action by planning ahead. 

Schedule your complimentary consultation to discuss your needs. I will verbally quote fee specifics and we can discuss any necessary payment options and timelines. ​​

We can seek out ways to normalize conversations around aging, death, and dying. Talking about future obligations may be difficult or unpleasant for many families to discuss in our current death-denying culture. Yet once the subject is approached and brought into the open, it can help bring about peace of mind for all concerned and cross the spectrum into healing other deep-seeded relationship and personal issues. ​Naturally, these topics stir up emotion and thoughts about mortality and life overall. I give the support needed to you as you consider these deeply complex ideas -- and will help coach you through subsequent grief and loss. ​​
