Compassionate Support

My work is grounded in the belief that preparation is a form of love—a way to honor the people we love and the stories we carry.

“We’re all just walking each other home.”
— Ram Dass

Fees & Sliding Scale

I use a sliding scale for my fees. In order to provide services to as many individuals and families as possible, I invite your active participation in deciding your contribution.

Complimentary 15-minute consultation, either in person or via Zoom, to determine which services are right for you.

Tier 1 | $0–$75 per hour
  • I frequently stress about meeting basic needs and don’t always achieve them.
  • I have debt that sometimes prohibits me from meeting my basic needs.
  • Working through survival credit card debt.
  • I have no access to savings.
  • I have no or very limited expendable income. I qualify for government assistance, including food stamps and healthcare.
  • My family does not have access to assets; I send money to my family when able.
  • I rent lower-end properties or have unstable housing.
Tier 2 | $75–$125 per hour
  • I may stress about meeting basic needs but still regularly achieve them.
  • I am able to pay my bills each month.
  • I have some savings.
  • I have some expendable income.
  • I am employed or have a steady income.
  • I can afford occasional travel or dining out.
  • I have stable housing.
Tier 3 | $125–$175 per hour
  • I am comfortably able to meet all of my basic needs.
  • I may have some depth, but it does not prohibit attainment of basic needs.
  • I own my home or rent a higher-end property.
  • I have access to savings and/or investments.
  • I have a high degree of expendable income.
  • I am able to afford regular travel and dining out.
  • I have inherited wealth or access to family assets.

I discovered this sliding scale and its verbiage via the Philly Death Doula Collective, who found it via the Andean Medicine for Liberation workshop hosted by Coca Rosa at Centro Corona. If you are aware of the original creator of this scale, please let me know, as I would like to credit and/or compensate them.
