I have a PhD in Adult Learning and Development and am a Certified Psychosynthesis Life Coach. Please see the About page and my LinkedIn profile for more details.

The first step is for us to meet for a 30-minute no-fee Discovery Call. This is a chance for us to learn a bit about each other and to explore the fit between us.

After deciding to move forward, we’ll schedule our first coaching session and I’ll send you an agreement outlining your goals and reiterating my approach, fee, and cancellation policy. Typically, I recommend clients begin with a commitment of 3-6 sessions. While you are free to stop at any time, this length gives us time to get more familiar with your aspirations, challenges, and patterns. This initial period also allows time for you to start trying out new ways of thinking and being between sessions.

Some people come every week and others every two weeks. It depends on your resources, as well as your goals and personal process. You want to come often enough to get some momentum going. On the other hand, you also want to have enough time between sessions to integrate what we explore during our sessions.

Coaching and therapy can have a good amount of overlap, but the training and orientation are quite different. Please click here for more information. If I feel a client would be better served by a therapist, we will discuss this and I will make a referral.

Mostly, I work online via Zoom. If you are in the Amherst, MA area and prefer to meet in person, I have certain in-person hours available or may be able to come to you.

Although I am not able to accept insurance, I make myself available to as many clients as I can by offering a sliding scale. Please schedule a 30-minute no-fee Discovery Call so we can see if we’re a good fit.

To remind you of our appointments, I will text or email you the day before we are to meet. Please confirm when you get my message. That said, I know that life happens. Please give me 24 hours notice if you need to cancel. I hold time for you, so if you notify me less than 24 hours ahead, you’ll be responsible for the full hourly rate.
