Advance Care Planning
Because your story deserves to guide your care.
Advance Care Planning is more than filling out forms. It’s a chance to reflect on what truly matters—your values, your care preferences, and the kind of support you’d want if a time came when you couldn’t speak for yourself.
Together, we’ll explore:
What quality of life means to you
Who you trust to make decisions on your behalf
Preferences for medical treatments, comfort, and care setting
How to communicate your wishes clearly and confidently
Together, we’ll make sure your voice is heard—now and in the future.
Want to skip ahead? You can jump to what we’ll explore together, what you’ll walk away with, or pricing and sliding scale information.
Once you're ready to begin, we'll move through a series of guided conversations—usually 3–4 hours across 2–3 sessions. You're welcome (and encouraged!) to invite loved ones, especially anyone you may appoint as your healthcare agent.
This is deep, personal work, but you don't have to navigate it alone. We'll guide the process and move at your pace, with time and space to reflect on what matters most.
We'll tailor our discussions to you, but here's an overview of what we may explore:
What We'll Explore, Together
-
How you handle life's challenges
What brings meaning and comfort to you
What helps you feel centered during difficult times
-
Your wishes around emergency care, cognitive changes, or terminal illness
What comfort and dignity look like for you
-
Who you trust to speak for you
How to prepare them to feel confident in their role
-
How you want to be remembered
Messages or reflections you'd like to leave behind
What You’ll Walk Away With
You'll receive a customized planning packet:
Conversation Summary – a narrative reflection of your values and preferences
Key Preferences Snapshot – a practical reference for loved ones and providers
Advance Directives Forms – specific to your state
Everything is written in plain language and designed to be useful—not just stored in a drawer.
Planning is just the first step.
Getting your wishes down is important—and it's often just the start.
Many families also need help preparing loved ones for hard conversations or ensuring someone trusted can be present when it matters most.
