Working with me on the Refinement Path
Imagine this:
To begin, I say a blessing for the session.
We take a flower essence together, tuning ourselves to each other and the work to come, and anoint ourselves with essential oils. Then I guide you into a small meditation helping you breathe yourself into your body and open to receive the gifts and healing that the session will bring,
I sit in deep presence with you while you share your story, tell me about your loss. I offer guidance, help, and support through it. You are seen, and you are heard.
The healing time begins.
Each session starts with this small ritual, then moves into cognitive listening and exploring, and then we move into the healing work with energy medicine, and sound healing from my singing bowls and gongs.
Woven into the sessions are guidance and practices in working with the Rhythms, including the tools and practices that accompany each particular Rhythm.
Afterwards there will be check ins about which plant medicines, essential oils, and flower essences might be appropriate for you to work with, including instructions on how to take, make, and/or apply them.
We start wherever you are in your post break up experience, where you have my full support as you begin your healing process on The Refinement Path. We explore the nature of each rhythm, and how it can mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually help heal, empower, and resource you. Occasionally we will be working with some rhythms simultaneously.
Most clients ask how long they will be working with me, but I can’t know that. Neither can you. Each person has their own rhythm and tolerance for change, and for facing the deeper patterns and wounds that have created the challenges they are experiencing.
We start with a 3 month initial commitment after your first session with me. That is your energetic and financial commitment to the healing work with yourself, and with me. After that you can commit to another 3 month period of work with the same discount for payment in full, or set up sessions as we go at the full rate.
How long we work together depends on a number of things. How fresh the break up was when you came to me, how much you’d already processed, and how well you’re processing what we did in the first 3 months, etc. It can take 6 months to a year of steady work to really be creating new pathways for your life. For others it might be more depending on how much trauma and unresolved, sticky patterns we’re addressing.
It also depends on how often you do sessions after the first 3 months. The more time between sessions the harder it is to facilitate the deeper changes needed. Remember, in the best scenario of working weekly, I only have 1-2 hours a week, which is 4-8 hours a month to help you to process the heartbreak in healthy ways, and facilitate clearing and healing earlier life wounding and trauma that may need to be addressed as part of the healing process.
That’s why I give you so many tools and practices, so you can continue the healing work between sessions. Then you can move faster through your journey on The Refinement Path.
When you commit to this process you’ll receive a write up for each of the 10 Rhythms so you have a better understanding of what we’ll be working with. You’ll also receive a free flower essence.
Session rates and details about the first 3 months.
Session rates are $165 per hour. I do not take insurance.
I don’t believe in a 50 minute hour, or that the process you might be in must stop because we have reached the hour mark. If you prefer, I am absolutely open to extending the session when we are thick in the process, which means running over 15-30 minutes. This would be agreed upon beforehand, and I will always give you a heads up when we are approaching the hour so you can decide. You’ll be charged accordingly if we run 15” or more. If we are 5” or so over I don’t sweat it and don’t charge.
I can also do more intensive therapy sessions when it’s needed and appropriate. That means sessions over 3-4 consecutive days where we really stay focused on stubborn blocks at times when you might be particularly stuck.
The 3 month commitment starts with the second session after our initial meeting, when we’ve both agreed we’re a good fit and you’re ready to begin work with the 10 Rhythms. It covers 12 sessions.
Payment options are:
~ Payment in full of $1980 will be given a 5% discount of $100 for a total of $1880
~ 2 payments of $990 due at the 1st and 6th sessions
~ 3 payments of $675 due at the beginning of each month
I can take payment via Venmo, Zelle, Apple Cash, or Paypal. Paypal would incur a 3% fee which is a little less than what I’m charged.
Regarding refunds: If you do not wish to continue after you’ve had 2 sessions with me doing The Refinement Path work I will refund the remaining amount you’ve paid in. After the initial 2 sessions there are no refunds except in cases of serious injury or illness.
For all sessions there is a 24 hour cancellation fee. If you cancel less than 24 hours before our session or do not show for an appointment, in any circumstance besides an emergency, you will be charged the full session fee.
