Frequently asked questions

Most of my clients arrive after years of exactly that, and they all say the same thing: they were allowed to talk, they were asked good questions, and nobody ever gave them a tool. Understanding why you feel the way you feel does not tell you who to become. I hand you instruments — for self-esteem, for fear, shame, and guilt, for changing a behaviour that no longer serves you — and you keep them for life.

No. Therapy examines the past to explain the present. I use the past as foundation, not explanation — and the work is forward-facing. I am a coach, not a clinician. If what you are carrying needs clinical care, I will tell you so directly and help you find the right person.

It is the most common sentence I hear, and it is not a problem — it is the starting point. You cannot answer that question until there is a self there to do the wanting. That is why we build the foundation first.

Three months is the minimum, and most clients work with me for considerably longer — more than seventy-five percent renew each year. We meet twice a week in the first year, because momentum is what keeps life from piling up between sessions. After that, most clients move to once a week.

Pricing depends on the programme and the engagement, so I do not publish it. We discuss it on the discovery call, once I understand what you are actually working on.

Some of it, eventually. Not because the past is interesting, but because a great deal of what runs your decisions today was installed before you could evaluate it. We go there when it is useful, at a pace you set, and never as an archaeology project.

Thirty minutes. You tell me what brought you here. I tell you what I see — including the parts that are uncomfortable. You leave with something useful whether or not we work together.

You complete questionnaires before we begin and the same questionnaires at the end, so change is documented rather than just felt. Every session has a survey before it, and I close every session by asking you how you feel and what you learned. You will not have to take my word for your own progress.
