FAQ’s

Why do people seek intuitive counseling?

Most folks I work with are seeking support with transitions. These include making career changes, nurturing creative goals, navigating relationships and uncovering aliveness in everyday life.  

What about therapy? 

Good therapy and other emotional healing work have more in common than not and this becomes more true as the fields evolve. Therapy is often sought when you’re looking to heal an emotional wound or wanting to understand how past trauma might affect your current circumstances.  Click here to read about some differences between therapy and coaching.  

What is “inner work”?

Inner work involves examining and reflecting on our lives, including our imperfections and what makes us human.  Inner work offers us the opportunity to practice self-compassion and to embrace our own complexity.

What are some specific issues you help with?

Some issues I help with are: feeling blue or dissatisfied, anxiety and worry, “imposter syndrome”, managing anger, shame, work stress, boundaries, struggles with parenting, personal and generational trauma, body image, creative blocks, relationships and dating, job changes, grief, divorce/break-ups and accepting new phases of life.

What’s it like to work one-on-one with you?

Through compassionate listening and honesty, I co-create space and safety for you to say what might be hard to say anyplace else.  Yes, there’s visioning and action planning.  We also process fears and examine obstacles. The bottom line is: being seen and deeply affirmed is healing.  I can guide you with practices that help tune into your body and access your innate wisdom. Incorporating mindfulness practices during sessions will help you feel more grounded and centered.

What are sessions like? 

Sessions last 45-60 minutes.  We look at what’s not working and build on the good. We explore practices that help you go inside to find your inner sources of strength and wisdom.

What’s your approach? 

Some of my influences include humanistic and transpersonal psychology. My perspective is also informed by West-African based spirituality, eastern non-dual philosophy and western mysticism. I believe that, as a practitioner, it’s my ethical responsibility to continue to commit to my own growth and healing. I’ve been fortunate to have many teachers and mentors who help me maintain the integrity of my work (and keep me humble).

What are advantages of working remotely?

Phone or Zoom sessions are beneficial for several reasons.  First, there is the convenience for both you and me. Second, especially when connecting over the phone, we get to focus on expression through words– you don’t have to worry about what you look like or are dressed like.

What are your rates?

The fee per session is $175. If you’re seeking therapy in NJ or Washington DC, as an LCSW, my services may be eligible for reimbursement as an out-of-network provider. Sliding scale options are available for those in need.
