I am so grateful you are here.

    This can look like:

    • 1:1 support with completing your Death File and/or any specific advance directive forms

    • private conversation(s) with just you and me

    • a facilitated conversation with loved ones to help communicate your end-of-life wishes

    • support through your end-of-life journey, or that of a loved one

    I am open to meetings in a private space, walk-and-talk sessions in nature, talks while gardening at your house (or mine)… the possibilites for these sessions are nearly endless.
