My name is Carola Stepper

My purpose is to inspire and guide individuals and families to talk about and prepare for the end of life and death, similarly to the ways we prepare for birth.

I am the previous business owner of a local acupuncture clinic and a former Hospice Nurse. I have a wide range of experience, skills and additional certifications to guide you through the end of life journey. As a self-employed business owner I can personalize my services and time to your needs.

Sometimes getting the answers to end of life questions depends on finding the right person who listens and helps you explore your goals and wishes. I would be honored to be part of your journey.

My training and experience are Certified Hospice and Palliative Nurse, Licensed Acupuncturist, End of Life Doula, certified Advance Care Planning Facilitator and Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist, certified by the Grief Recovery Institute.
