Questions about End of Life
Many people are familiar with the term “doula” and how those professionals assist mothers and families at the time of birth. Throughout history, in many cultures, there have also been people who support individuals and families in the dying process and at the time of death. These people work with caregivers, medical professionals, family members and the dying person to help the dying person clarify and accomplish their end of life goals. Death doulas and end of life coaches work in tandem with hospice and palliative care professionals to support clear communication and execution of the dying person’s wishes. Thresholding can help you and your family communicate about important end of life decisions and support collaboration among family members after the death of their loved one. A death doula that takes a learning or “coaching” approach to this process helps the dying person and their community frame and nurture the end of life experience as a vital learning and healing opportunity supporting participants in their individual and collective grief processes. To find out more about what our clients say about the Thresholding approach to end of life support, read on.
When a dying person begins the process of clarifying their end of life wishes and desires around legacy, they often assemble a group of key members and/or caregivers from their family and community. Thresholding family care team facilitation utilizes the best practices from group communication, facilitation and decision-making processes to support the dying person and their community in these important end of life reflection and planning discussions. Participants are invited to celebrate and reflect with the dying person on their life, explore issues of legacy and end of life choices, all while collectively planning for and supporting the intentional implementation of the dying person’s wishes.
Typically, end of life services are provided at the rate of $250 an hour. This includes facilitation of small family team discussions and coaching sessions with individuals who are at end of life.

Questions about Integration Coaching
In many cultures, seekers of all types are supported with structured space and mentoring before, during and after times of great personal insight. Whether that seeking involves a time of personal reflection or sabbatical, deep meditation or healing work or even psychedelic journey exploration, it is critical that the seeker intentionally protect and integrate learnings from these endeavors. In the West, we often fill these spaces of reflection with more doing, more consuming, more seeking- often missing the rich opportunities for growth following such work. Skilled support at these thresholds provides the efficient and effective integration needed for durable and sustainable spiritual growth and personal development.
