End-of-Life Coaching
Are you facing the challenges of having a loved one who is terminally ill?
Is this the first imminent death or end of life situation that you are facing? Do you not know where to start? Are you contemplating hospice or palliative care for a loved one? Are you going against the frustrations of a loved one who is in denial of their disease process? Are you have difficulty with addressing end-of-life concerns with a partner, friend, parents, or grandparents? Are you struggling to find the words to express your feelings towards a love one who is dying? Do you have anticipatory grief of a loved one passing away? I can help you with the fears, questions, and concerns you may have regarding end-of-life issues for a loved one.
Things I can help coach with:
Advanced directives
Family dynamics
Grief, regret, frustrations, life transitions
Not knowing how to cope with someone who is terminally ill
Acceptance
Third-party support
Advanced planning including a checklist for things such a power of attorney documents, living will, end-of-life decisions, final arrangements and other difficult discussions
Understanding cultural practices for end-of-life issues
+ Do you have experience with this topic?
Yes. As a medical social worker, I have worked with hospice patients for close to 10 years and have trained experience with end-of-life issues for individuals themselves as well their family and friends. I have assisted hundreds of families in navigating the diffult challenges of having a loved one with a terminal diagnosis.
+ Who would benefit from End-Of-Life coaching?
Anyone who is
- Going through a difficult time with a loved one who is terminally ill
- Interested in consultation from me for end-of-life discussions only, and not interested in therapy
- Nationwide and worlwide as this is not limited to California residents
+ Who is End-Of-Life coaching not appropriate for?
If you are
- Already my therapy client
- Not going through worries and concerns of a loved who is terminally ill
- Looking for long-term therapy
+ Can I do therapy and also the End-of-Life coaching or is it one or the other?
The End-Of-Life coaching option are for clients who are intersted in consulting with me regarding end-of-life issues with a loved one, but are not interested in therapy services. End-of-Life coaching is a 90 minute "power session" where you can ask any questions you may have regarding end-of-life concerns. If you are already a therapy client of mine, you are able to ask me the same questions in your regular session. If you have done an End-of-Life session with me and would like to continue on as a therapy client, then we can discuss that option together if you live in California.
