Want to do the standard exchange thing? 
 You give me money  ← | →  I give you my time?
Totally okay.

I ask for $214 per 50 minute session if that's sustainable for you.

If that's not sustainable for you, I ask you to let me know what is and I'll let you know if I can sustainably work with that.


I ask for 48 hours notice to cancel a session or I charge
the full amount we've agreed on.

I try to reschedule during the same week whenever possible rather than doing this.

Want to try something different?

How about this:
We agree on a certain amount that you offer either
📆 monthly or 🗓️ biweekly.

If you choose 📆 monthly

I ask for $856 per month if that's sustainable for you.

 If that's not sustainable for you,
I ask you to let me know what is.
I'll let you know if I can work with that.
🤝

If you choose 🗓️ biweekly

I ask for $395 every 2 wks if that's sustainable for you.

 If that's not sustainable for you,
I ask you to let me know what is.
I'll let you know if I can work with that.
🤝

 

It's kind of like a subscription, or a donation to public radio.

You have access to my schedule and book sessions with me whenever you'd like — no charge.


You can choose a 20m, 50m, or 80m session. 
You can choose video or phone.

As the seasons change
(about every three months) we'll check in about the arc of our work and the sustainability of your contribution: 

How's our work feeling? 

Are you getting enough time with me? 

Are you able to increase or do you need to decrease what you're offering based on your circumstances changing?

etc...

Each contribution supports not only your healing journey, but the healing of all those who seek out this work.
🤲

 

In essence, it's about shifting the questions we're asking ourselves.

Instead of me asking

" How much can I charge? "

...and you asking...

" How little can I pay? "
 

😖 | ⇐ ⇒ | 😖

I get to ask 

 

" What can I offer " 

...and you get to ask... 

" What can I give "
 

😀 ⇒ | ⇐ 😀

One of my favorite phrases that sums up this way of working is:​​

"We give more if we have more, but we don't receive less simply because we have less"

(  Questions?  )

Why do I spell my name lowercase? I was inspired by bell hooks’ example. I seek to offer myself to the world with a humility and vulnerability often lacking in those of my positionality, as well as seeking to shift the focus from myself as an individual to the work I do and care about — which is part of a larger collective and heritage of many individuals devoting themselves to such work over many generations. Spelling out my full name with lowercase letters is an aesthetic nod to these commitments and values. Feel free to ask me more about this!
