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.

Our Approach to Pricing

We believe end-of-life planning should be accessible to everyone—regardless of income, background, or financial circumstances. Our sliding scale reflects the real differences in what people can afford while ensuring that everyone receives the same thoughtful, professional care.

This isn't about proving need. It's about trusting you to choose the tier that fits your current situation. If you're able to pay more, your generosity helps make this work accessible to others. If money is tight, we're here to support you at a lower cost.

We don't ask for documentation. We don't assign value based on what you pay. Every person receives the same care, attention, and respect.

All Tiers Include

Up to 4 hours of planning, a written summary, formal documents and support

Tier 1

$399

This tier is for those with significant financial resources, generational wealth, or who have benefited from systemic advantages.

  • If you identify with most of the following statements, this tier may be appropriate for you:

    • I can easily meet all my basic needs and afford luxuries without worry.

    • I have a high-paying job or significant income from investments.

    • I have substantial savings and could handle a major financial emergency with ease.

    • I have little to no debt, or my debt doesn't impact my lifestyle.

    • I can take multiple vacations per year, including international travel.

    • I have significant disposable income and can regularly make large purchases without concern.

    • My family or I own valuable assets like a home, multiple properties, or a diverse investment portfolio.

    • I've had access to elite education opportunities, either for myself or within my family.

    • I live in an affluent neighborhood with excellent amenities and top-rated schools.

    • I rarely, if ever, face discrimination that impacts my career prospects or daily life.

    • I have comprehensive health insurance and can afford any medical treatment without financial strain.

    • I may have inherited wealth or benefited significantly from family connections.


    Your contribution at this level helps subsidize services for those with less access to resources, supporting our mission to provide equitable care to all members of our community.

Tier 2

$299

For individuals with steady income and some financial safety nets. You can generally meet your basic needs without constant worry, though occasional challenges may arise.

  • If you identify with most of the following statements, this tier may be appropriate for you:

    • I can meet my basic needs (housing, food, healthcare) without constant worry, though I may occasionally feel financial stress.

    • I have a steady job or income source that allows me to live comfortably, if not luxuriously.

    • I have some savings, even if it's not as much as I'd like. I could handle a moderate financial emergency without it being catastrophic.

    • I have some debt (like student loans or a mortgage), but it's manageable and doesn't prevent me from meeting my needs.

    • I can afford to take a vacation most years, even if it's not extravagant.

    • I have some disposable income each month. I can occasionally buy new items and don't always have to opt for the cheapest option.

    • My family or I own some assets, like a home or investments, even if they're modest.

    • I've had access to higher education, either for myself or it was common in my family.

    • I live in a relatively safe neighborhood with decent amenities and schools.

    • I don't regularly face discrimination that significantly impacts my job prospects or daily life.

    • If I needed to see a doctor or dentist, I could do so without it causing severe financial strain.

Tier 3

$199

For those with stable income who can meet basic needs but have little expendable income. You may have experienced financial instability or barriers tied to identity or background.

  • If you identify with most of the following statements, this tier may be appropriate for you:

    • I can usually meet my basic needs, but it often requires careful budgeting and I sometimes struggle.

    • I have a job or income source, but it's not always stable or sufficient.

    • I have little to no savings. An unexpected expense of a few hundred dollars would be very difficult to manage.

    • I have debt that sometimes makes it hard to meet my basic needs.

    • Vacations are rare luxuries for me. If I do take time off, it's usually a "staycation" or visiting family.

    • I have very little disposable income. Most of my purchases are necessities, and I often have to choose the cheapest option.

    • I don't own significant assets. If I own a home, it may be in an area with lower property values.

    • Higher education was a financial stretch for me or not accessible at all.

    • I live in a neighborhood that may have safety concerns or limited amenities.

    • I sometimes face discrimination that affects my job prospects or daily life.

    • Medical or dental issues often go untreated because I can't afford care, even with insurance.

    • I may rely on some form of public assistance or support from family/community to make ends meet.

Tier 4

$99

For individuals who consistently struggle to meet basic needs. You may face limited access to resources and have experienced systemic barriers or discrimination.

  • If you identify with most of the following statements, this tier may be appropriate for you:

    • I consistently struggle to meet my basic needs like housing, food, and healthcare.

    • My income is unreliable or insufficient. I may be unemployed or underemployed.

    • I have no savings. Any unexpected expense, even minor, can be a crisis.

    • I have significant debt that prevents me from meeting basic needs.

    • Vacations are not an option for me. Taking unpaid time off work could jeopardize my ability to pay bills.

    • I have no disposable income. Every purchase is carefully considered for necessity.

    • I don't own any significant assets. I likely rent and may have unstable housing situations.

    • Higher education felt out of reach for me due to cost or other barriers.

    • I live in an area that may be unsafe or lack basic amenities and services.

    • I frequently face discrimination that significantly impacts my job prospects and daily life.

    • I often have to forgo necessary medical or dental care because I can't afford it.

    • I rely heavily on public assistance programs or community support to survive.

    • I may have experienced or be at risk of homelessness.

If you're unsure which tier fits you, we’ll talk it through during your free consultation.

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.
