Phyllis Package

End of Life Companionship is my term for long-term support. This is a client-based relationship, working with the client for several months to years. This differs from my other packages, where I work closely with both the client and their family for shorter durations, limited by the stages and types of illnesses involved.  

End of life companionship focuses on accompanying the client through the early stages of their diagnosis. This could include someone who has received a diagnosis with several years to live and are wishing to get certain matters in order or junior and senior citizens looking to educate themselves about the future and plan accordingly.

We initially focus on advance planning and education, ensuring the logistical items are taken care of before we start a long-term care plan, this includes a la cart sessions tailored to your specific needs. The client indicates when they would like a session. The sessions could range from:

·  Emotional support

·  Spiritual support

·  Navigating grief

·  Diagnosis Education/ Research 

·  Help finding communities

·  Advocacy

·  Appointment support (I will accompany you to appointments) 

·  Pre-planning for appointments (listing questions and concerns along with preferences) 

This service is best suited for junior and senior citizens looking to for advance planning and education. It is also ideal for individuals who want to become more comfortable with death and dying, or those who have recently received a diagnosis, have a life expectancy of several years and are looking to prepare logistically and spiritually. 

·  Recently Diagnosed Individuals 

·  Death Curious Individuals

·  Junior Citizens (45+)

·  Senior Citizens (65+)

The purpose is to help clients come to terms with their illness and cope with their grief, while providing a clear path that allows them to live more peacefully. This service is designed to relieve families of medical, financial and emotional burdens by handling end-of-life planning.

How are sessions scheduled?

Clients receive eight sessions, which can be used for end-of-life planning or spiritual and emotional support. Additional sessions are available a la cart and can be scheduled whenever the client desires.

What is a la cart?

A la cart means the client can choose the type of session they want, whenever they want, at an hourly rate, without needing to purchase another package.
