FAQ

Where is your office?

I’m still distance-working from Santa Monica, California, for the foreseeable future.

If you’d like our initial meeting to be on Zoom or FaceTime, we certainly can do that.

Subsequent sessions should be on the phone to minimize distractions, although I can do Zoom or Zoom audio-only for international sessions.

How does it work over the telephone?
Energy knows no time or space. It works outside the physical universe. Distance is nothing to it.
Do you work with physical issues?

We can certainly work on the energy blockages that cause physical issues. One of the first experiences that made me acknowledge my abilities was when a woman in her early 80s regained the ability to read at night.

It may be desirable to do physical issue sessions in person.

Do you work with children?
I do. If the child is non- or pre-verbal, the process is different, but the energy work is the same.
What is your availability?
I have times available during the day, evenings, and weekends.
How long are sessions?

Sessions run for 60 minutes.

It’s best not to schedule anything immediately after our session; you may desire to take a little while to settle before engaging with others.

How do I start?
To set up an initial appointment, you can either complete the form below or contact me via email or telephone/text at (424) 235-0409.
What is your cancellation policy?

Please give a 24-hour notice to cancel an appointment so that I can fill that slot from the waiting list.

For infrequent cancellations, I do not charge a cancellation fee.

What if I have to reschedule?
Please contact me as early as possible, and I will get you in as soon as there is availability.
How do you take payment?
Venmo, CashApp, Zelle, and Paypal for international clients.
Do you take insurance?
Energy therapy is not covered by insurance.
Will I benefit from working with you?

Are you ready to recover from your wounds?

Do you feel that we may be more than a collection of body parts?

If you feel that only what we can sense with our bodies is real, can you suspend your disbelief to work with imagery and metaphor, telling stories?

Then, yes, you will benefit from working with me.

How do I know I'm the kind of client you work with?

If you’re drawn to working with me, it’s because you are in the group of people that I work with.

Creative, high IQ, or both – and not fulfilling your potential.

That’s you. Right?

How do you describe yourself as a therapist?

Direct.

Unshockable.

Nonjudgmental.

Deeply caring.

I want to get the thorn out of your heart.

What will we talk about?

We talk about whatever concerns you.

We talk about everything from trauma to current life to popular culture. I’m not looking for answers. I’m feeling for energy.

Strange things can reveal energy blockages. Talking about a favorite TV show can lead down a wormhole to an experience you’d forgotten about.

While we can go in seemingly random directions, sometimes, it leads to energy surges that we then discuss and work with.

What if I can't talk about it?

It happens at your speed. I’m not going to push you into things you can’t deal with, but I go where I feel energy surges.

If you can’t talk about it, we talk around it and work with its energy.

I’m not looking for a specific incident. I’m looking for the blocked energy. We don’t always have to go into detail.

What do I do during a session?

Usually, people sit or lie in their homes, just talking with me on the phone.

It’s a good idea to have a glass of water and a box of tissues nearby.

Sometimes, people like to play music or chant. You can have a movie or TV in the background or for sound camouflage. Distraction isn’t an issue for me or the work’s effectiveness.

We don’t do breathing or postures as part of the therapy, but you can do whatever makes you comfortable and allows you to focus.

It’s best to be alone, though, because emotion will come up, and you will talk about personal matters.

What if I swear? What if I talk about gross things?

Unshockable. Nonjudgmental.

I’m just looking for energy surges.

I may swear on occasion, myself.

Do I have to "believe" that this will work?

Nope. Just show up and talk about whatever presents itself.

I will direct you to the energy, work with you to free the energy, and direct it out and away.

Just be there for the ride.

How it works…

Our bodies are made of the stars and planets – the same matter in them is the matter in us. We know this.

Our consciousness is made of energy. Our emotions and memories are made of energy.

Before we had the math and instruments to measure the universe, we had no idea that there is more energy in the universe than there is matter.

Those of us who can sense energy can work with it. Like an archaeologist removing layers of soil from an ancient artifact, I remove what isn’t you.

I see you–truly you. With your knowledge, permission, and participation, I assist in removing energy blockages that inhibit you from being your true self. That energy is released harmlessly into the universe to its native state.

And you get…you.

What is your refund policy?

We have a no-refund policy once payment has been received. The nature of therapy requires commitment from both the therapist and client. After your payment is processed, your therapist has reserved that time slot specifically for your session. As such, refunds cannot be issued once the appointment time has been scheduled and paid for.
