Quality of Life Conversations
A natural extension of the support I offer
I don’t separate practical support from emotional or mental well-being.
In many of my sessions, conversation naturally becomes part of the experience.
I offer grounded, one-on-one conversations that help bring:
clarity
calm
perspective
and a deeper sense of direction
This isn’t formal coaching.
It’s a supportive space to think, feel, and reconnect with what matters most—while being met with presence, care, and real-life understanding.

Hi, I’m Kelley Duilio, an artist, caregiver, and Portland native.
I’ve spent my adult life working in care-centered environments, beginning with my father’s home care business. That early experience shaped my deep respect for human connection, reliability, and creating spaces where people feel genuinely supported.
I’m also a working abstract artist, and creativity plays an important role in how I approach my work, bringing flexibility, problem-solving, and a thoughtful eye to each home and situation.
For the past decade, I’ve managed and developed a unique multi-unit property in Southwest Portland, creating a stable and welcoming living environment for residents.
My own experience navigating health challenges has deepened my sensitivity to pacing, energy, and the importance of creating supportive, sustainable environments.
I care deeply about helping homes feel calm, functional, and alive, and supporting people in a way that feels both practical and human.

Kind Words
Kelley has been invaluable in helping my mother. She is kind, caring, energetic, and genuinely dedicated to her clients. She is truly a godsend, and I’m so glad we connected. I would recommend her to all friends and family in need of support, assistance, or companionship.
-Jeff B. 2025
I reached out to Kelley about a year after my partner died. I had worked with her several years before when she was doing some daycare for my father. After my partner's death, I was very disorganized at home. I was keeping it together at work, but I couldn't seem to make progress with all the stuff that had to be done at the house. A lot of it was stuff I had inherited from my partner, my dad, and my mom, after their passing. Kelley helped me find the joyful parts of organizing, and honoring my loved one’s past lives, without denying the sadness. Ultimately, I found a balance between past grief, and the good things that were still happening in my life. Now the house is clean, I feel like my life is on track, and Kelley was both the catalyst, and my steady helper getting me there. -Tim 2024
Kelley helped me move from my small motor home into a 1-bedroom apartment. My biggest challenge is knowing where things go and how to organize a space. Kelley has a strong understanding of the elements of what makes a home a functional, orderly and nurturing space, in all kinds of sizes and settings. We also looked at goals for my space, good habits to build, and how I will use the space to better my life. Such a space, for me, is the foundation of good mental and emotional health and a life that works.
In our process, Kelley is sensitive to the right form and amount of assistance to offer in any given moment. She holds a space of focus in which my own clarity arises easily in her presence, and when I'm not feeling clear, she's ready with helpful ideas. Her presence helped me feel comfortable and secure in moving through this process. She brought her warmth into my new home and it helped me feel more comfortable settling in.
I've also worked with Kelley remotely in a video call when I was sorting and packing up from where I was living. She brought her supportive presence with the same elements of intuition, focus and clarity that made my tasks flow with much more ease than they would have otherwise. I'm so grateful for the different ways she has helped me as I've faced challenges managing my things at times. D.G. 2024
As a friend, and someone who has worked closely with Kelley Duilio for the last 5 years, I have witnessed the ways in which she brings value to her work. Kelley has a sense of clarity about her that is reflected in her ability to sensitively move in situations requiring complicated factors and personal needs. She is trustworthy, detail oriented, caring, open minded and compassionate. I highly recommend her high quality services. Ron Ambes 2024

Kelley is a personable and caring individual who is responsible, creative, and detail-oriented. She has a sense of poise in complex situations and is skillful in connecting people to resources. Her warmth and sincere interest in others make her a great companion, helper, and support person. Tom Mattox 2024
Kelley and I have been meeting once a week for the past several months for our creative chats, and creative they have been! In the past 3 years I have lost both of my grown children to cancer. I, myself, have over 40 years experience of either listening to and supporting others. Nevertheless, I am learning how I have been blindsided by my own grief. The chats with Kelley have enabled me to rediscover the light within and the courage to share both the dark and the light. Kelley is and lives every word she has written on her website. In life, "change is the name of the game." Kelley knows this, and I know that she knows this, and she knows that I know this. So we never know which way life might move, but by meeting and chatting we are finding gratitude for life in all its forms. Our meetings are planned, but damn near anything can emerge in our heart to heart chats. Chatting with Kelley is a unique experience that I would wish for everyone. Eddie D. 2022
Kelley helped me move through a difficult situation with greater clarity and perspective. Her support continues to influence how I navigate challenges in my life.
