FAQs

What can I expect?

We will talk via email/phone/video to get a basic sense of whether or not we are a match for each other. There is no cost and no commitment whatsoever for this initial consult. Fit is critical.

If we determine there is fit, we will meet to set ourselves up for deeper work. These sessions will be at my studio on the outskirts of Calgary. Video calls are also an option if you are not local to Calgary.

Once we have established a relational foundation on which to delve deeper, we can plan an inward looking journey.

What does this cost?

It depends. Some of the factors include -

  • The number of preparatory sessions

  • The specifics of the journey to self exploration (e.g., partial day, whole day)

Once we have completed our initial consult conversation, I will be able to give you an estimate on cost.

Is this covered by insurance?

I have a PhD in Experimental Social Psychology but this is different than being trained as a therapist. I was trained as a researcher, not a clinician.  As such, my services are not covered by insurances.

Will this “cure” what ails me?

This approach is not a magic pill. It involves serious introspection and shifts in patterns that have likely been present for a very very long time. We don’t tend to “break” all at once and similarly, we don’t heal all at once.

But what I have found, is that this work gets at the deep stuff that allows for long-lasting change - a healthier and more resilient nervous system, an enhanced ability to listen to the body, healthier and deeper relationships, more self compassion….

I’m just looking for a “sitter”. Can you help?

Maybe.

My preference is to do this work in relationship. But depending on fit and need, I may be able to help. Please reach out and we can discuss further.
