Frequently Asked Questions

• Phone Consultation (free):
  We begin with a free 15-minute phone consultation (schedule here) to discuss your goals and answer any questions. If you decide to work with me, we schedule your initial session.
• Initial Session ($180):
  During our initial session, we will explore various techniques—such as CranioSacral Therapy, Myofascial Release, Sound Healing, Inner Child Work, and Breathwork—to discover what best supports you.

Things to bring to your first session:

• Calendar/smartphone for scheduling
• Form of payment (Cash, Check, Venmo, or Credit Card)
• A “beginner’s mind”

At the end of the visit, you can let me know if the work resonates with you. If it does, we can discuss frequency and supportive habits for between sessions.

SCHEDULING & PAYMENT
Bring your calendar for future bookings. I prefer to handle payment at the start of the session so you can remain in a relaxed state afterward. Cash is preferred; checks, Venmo, and Credit Cards are also accepted.

INTENTION
Spend 5 minutes the night before reflecting on your goals. Approaching the session with a “beginner’s mind” encourages a more open, coachable disposition.

WHAT TO WEAR
Loose, comfortable clothing. Yoga shorts, boxer briefs, or a sports bra (if applicable) are recommended.

SUBSTANCES & DIET
Avoid large meals, caffeine, alcohol, or pain medications within 3 hours of your appointment.

SCENTS & LOTIONS
Please abstain from perfumes, essential oils, menthol rubs, or heavy lotions/sunscreens on the day of your visit. Some clients have severe autoimmune reactions to lingering scents.

ARRIVAL
I do not have a waiting room. Please arrive exactly at your scheduled time and ring the bell.
