Getting Started
Free Meeting
It starts with a free in-person meeting, phone or Zoom call for us to meet, to help me clarify what you are looking for, help you understand how I work, and lay out the process of how we would work together.
Form &
60-90 Minute
Session
If it feels like a fit, we’ll meet for a 90-minute session, in-person in Aptos, CA, or over Zoom. I believe that the “50-minute hour” is insufficient to get to the heart of matters; I prefer to schedule the full 90 minutes, however, 60-minute sessions are available given particular scheduling needs. Sessions may be weekly or every other week, depending on your needs.
Check-in
& Reassess
After a few sessions, we’ll check-in to determine if you have reached a place of completion with the issue you’ve brought forth, or if there is more you’d like to work on. In general, I do not provide ongoing, long-term services. My work focuses more on short-term, powerfully impactful work. I am happy to refer to traditional therapists if you are seeking a long-term therapeutic relationship.
Ways We Work Together
I believe in your inner healing intelligence.
My job is to help you unburden yourself from unhelpful ways of being. In the context of a supportive environment, I employ various healing modalities beyond traditional “talking methods”, including:
Experiential Exercises
Hypnotherapy
Dream Work
Myth & Story
Mindfulness Training
Imagery
Using Symbols to Understand the Self
Fees
I offer a sliding scale for all services.
For a standard 90-minute-session, fees range from $150 - $250.
Extended sessions have their own fee structure, discussed upon engagement.
I do not take insurance, nor do I prepare bills for submission to insurance companies.
If you are unable to afford these fees, please contact me to see if I have any reduced fee slots available.Special Offerings
