Services

Advanced Care Planning

Guided with clarity and compassion

Our Advance Care Planning services provide a structured and compassionate process to help individuals make clear, informed decisions about their future care. With an emphasis on dignity, transparency, and meaningful communication, we guide you in articulating your values, defining your preferences, documenting your medical choices, and preparing your loved ones and providers for the road ahead. More than completing documents, this work offers an opportunity to clarify what matters most and to reduce uncertainty during critical moments, ensuring that your wishes are understood, honored, and reflected in a plan that upholds both your autonomy and your humanity.

About me…

With decades of clinical experience as a nurse practitioner, and additional training as a Marriage and Family Counselor and Certified Certified Death Doula, I have devoted my career to providing care that honors the full spectrum of the human journey. My work centers on supporting individuals and families with clarity, respect, and compassionate presence—especially at the end of life.

I have witnessed how deeply people benefit from skilled guidance during moments of vulnerability and transition. This has shaped my commitment to ensuring that each person’s values, preferences, and voice remain at the heart of their care. Whether offering medical advocacy, advance care planning, or support through end-of-life decisions, I bring a steady blend of clinical expertise, thoughtful communication, and human-centered insight.

My purpose is simple: to walk with individuals and those who love them through one of life’s most significant chapters, helping build understanding and promote choice, and dignity. It is an honor to stand alongside individuals and their loved ones, offering clarity, comfort, and unwavering presence during life’s most meaningful moments. My goal is to ensure that each person’s care is guided not only by clinical knowledge but by compassion, intention, and understanding.
