Getting your affairs in order is more than just having a will.

PERSONAL PLANNING

Not a group person?

Death’s Apprentice signature program “Prep School” is a proven curriculum that gets people through the intricacies of holistic advance care planning. But we get it: group programming isn’t for everyone. If you’d like 1-1 guidance or specialized small group programming, you’re in the right place.

Holistic Advance Care Planning Package

Our holistic advance care planning package is a heart-centred approach to practical planning matters.

Package includes 4 hours of  1-1 guidance and customized follow-up (5 hours total). 

Here’s a glimpse into what we’ll cover:

  • Legal, financial & administrative tasks: we’ll create a customized “to-do” list

  • Medical & philosophical decision making for both end of life and sudden illness or critical injuries

  • Disposition options & ceremony planning so your loved ones aren’t dealing with a million decisions when they just can’t

  • “The most important paperwork”: your heart-will or legacy project

Our time together is broken into 4-1 hour zoom sessions and a short  follow up/accountability check-in after the fourth meeting. You’ll work from thoughtfully created curriculum designed to get you through each part of these four pillars of holistic advance care planning.  Your schedule, your way.

Pricing: $550 per person / $975 per couple/ $1650 per family (maximum 6 people, any definition of “family” that suits yours!)

If our package isn’t right for you, let’s discuss individual consulting options.

You don’t know what you don’t know…but you might not need the whole package!

  • Do you feel confident in all your paperwork, but aren’t sure how to approach your “heart work”?

  • Do you need to know more about your disposition options?

  • Would you benefit from a review of your existing plans?

Everyone’s needs in life are different, and that doesn’t change with death. If the Holistic Advance Care Planning package isn’t the right choice for you, let’s talk about how we can meet your specific needs.

Individualized planning and support sessions are developed based on your unique requirements.  We will start with a complimentary clarity call and email follow-up. I have found that most people’s needs require at least 2 hours but we can discuss your specific situation during our initial call.

Ongoing rates:

30-minutes: $85 | 2-4 hours: $170 per hour | 5+ hours: $150 per hour

One time/emergency consultations:

You might need advice or information quickly, for specific and urgent situations. I got you, and at a special rate too:

30 minutes: $50 | 1 hour: $75

Call 604-224-2642 or email hello@deathsapprentice.ca to conduct urgent need conversations.

Doula Connections

I work closely with a small team of hand picked End of Life Doulas affiliated with the BC Death Doula Network and the End of Life Doula Association of Canada.

Doula services are extremely personal: reach out and begin the conversation to see how we can support you and your family.

We always provide a complimentary consultation call and email follow up. 

Most families choose to retain  services in 5 hour blocks, but we will work together to define your specific needs.  These services are billed at the same rates as individualized planning and support options, beginning at $170 per hour.
