Services A Thoughtful Path Forward
Creating a Game Plan
A structured, guided process to define your health and medical priorities and document what matters most. Through four conversations and a final family meeting, you create a clear plan that prepares you for the years ahead and keeps your loved ones aligned and informed.
Facilitated Conversations
In addition to the Game Plan, I support individuals and families who want a thoughtful, guided setting where important conversations can unfold with care. With a background in conflict management, I guide discussions that may be emotional, complex, or difficult to begin. My role is to keep emotions and old patterns from overshadowing what you mean to say so your intentions are truly understood. Whether you are sharing medical wishes with a Health Care Agent or navigating another meaningful conversation, I support you in moving through the discussion with clarity and care.
Game Plans for Individuals With Dementia
For someone with dementia, creating a Game Plan can be especially meaningful. It offers a chance to name what matters most while they are able, and it gives families a clear framework to guide the many decisions that unfold as care needs change. The process brings clarity during a time that often feels uncertain, and it helps everyone move forward with greater confidence.
Every person and every family is different, so the approach is flexible. Adele begins by meeting with the individual, or with the individual and their family, to understand their wishes, values, and priorities. The level of family involvement is decided together.
When an individual is no longer able to participate fully, Adele works with their Health Care Agent and trusted loved ones to create a Game Plan based on what they know of the person’s values. This becomes a steady source of guidance. It offers a unified starting point, helps prevent confusion or conflict, and gives the Health Care Agent confidence when difficult choices arise.
The purpose is to create a thoughtful, values-based framework that strengthens communication and supports good decision making in the years ahead.
Adele created a safe, compassionate space for my family to share openly. She was able to uncover the core of my parents' wishes—not just the practical aspects like healthcare directives and financial plans, but also the emotional and personal things that matter most to them. I feel a deep sense of relief knowing what my parents want and how I can honor their wishes. And more importantly, I feel more confident in our ability to communicate as a family as their plans naturally adapt over time.
