Reaching out for support around end-of-life planning can feel like a big step. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin.
Some people come with specific questions. Others are simply looking for a place to talk things through. However you arrive, you are welcome here.
If you’re unsure where to begin, this is a gentle place to start.
This conversation offers space to ask questions, talk through your situation, and explore what kind of support might be helpful. There is no pressure—just an opportunity to connect and see what feels right for you.
For those seeking more in-depth or continued support, I offer one-on-one conversations tailored to your needs.
This may include exploring your wishes and values, talking through advance directives or care preferences such as POLST or VSED, navigating family conversations, or simply creating space for reflection during times of uncertainty or transition.
Sessions are offered by phone (with optional video), text messaging, and, for those who are local, limited in-person home visits. No costs are involved.
Payment can be made via Venmo, Zelle, or Paypal. For in-person visits, I also accept cash and credit cards.
Some people prefer to begin independently, gathering information at their own pace.
You may find it helpful to explore trusted resources such as Compassion & Choices or End of Life Choices New York, which offer guidance, education, and support around end-of-life planning. Links to their websites can be found on the Resources page.
If something here resonates, you’re welcome to reach out through the contact form to request a time to connect.
I’ll respond within 24–48 hours.
We can take things one step at a time.
These questions can help guide your conversation and clarify what kind of support feels most meaningful.
• What kind of support do I feel I need most right now (emotional, spiritual, practical, or companionship)?
• What experiences or beliefs shape the way I think about dying, death, or grief?
• What kind of presence helps me feel safe and supported?
• Who do I want included in my circle of care?
• What boundaries or sensitivities feel important for others to understand?
• What would help me feel most at peace in the days or weeks ahead?
• How might my family or loved ones benefit from additional support?
• Are there fears, hopes, or values I’d like to share that could help guide decisions or care?
A Circle of Care is the compassionate community that surrounds a person and their loved ones with presence, comfort, and dignity through life’s final chapter.
It doesn’t have to be large. Even one or two people, showing up with care and steadiness, can create a circle that feels whole.
