What the heck is life coaching???
Listen to a sample session.
This is a recording of a session with a client (who gave her blessing that I share it, obviously). I've edited out portions of our conversation, but you'll hear her examine her belief that lack of money is an obstacle keeping her from doing what she wants. Warning: you'll also hear us swear quite a bit, as well as crack each other up.
Coaching BY PHONE???
Yup. I know it sounds weird at first, but I adore it and I think you will too. It's an incredibly focused, potent way to do this kind of work. I usually don't even use the video function on my skype calls; there is a meditative quality to the work we do that is supported by the safety of a phone call. You're not out in public at a coffee shop or even sitting in my office, so you can show up as your most raw, honest, tangled self. It's a great place to start.
Single Sessions: one-time, 60-minutes, quick-and-dirty
Wary of commitment? Prefer one-night stands? Here you go. Dive in and work on something. But watch out; this lovin' is addictive! If you sign up for one of my six-session packages, I'll bring a lot of extra material to our work: my favorite books, exercises to do between sessions, and email access if you need it. These single sessions are more focused and we'll hone in on just one issue. I'll use the techniques I learned in my training with Dr. Martha Beck to get deep, quickly, and work on one particular thing that's bothering you. We'll come up with concrete steps for you to take on your own after the session, if appropriate, and then you're off into the wild blue yonder. E-mail me to book a session or ask me a question.
Quick Fix
Stuck? In crisis? Have to make a quick decision? Or just plagued by a nagging sense that you're missing something? I'm a massively high Quick-Start on the Kolbe scale. (That just means that I like to get right to it, whatever it is, and do some fast untangling and problem-solving.) If you're in a hurry, I'm your girl. One-time session by phone or skype. $100. Email me to book.
Strange Dreams
I use Dr. Martha Beck's dream interpretation, which is based on Carl Jung's theories. There'll be no 'a snake means money--or maybe sex!' quackery here. Figure out what your dreams are trying to tell you by learning how to decode their language. The best part is, you'll leave the session able to do the decoding on your own from then on. One-time session by phone or skype. $100. Email me to book.
How It Works
You email me. We set a time to talk. (Usually this will be evening in the US, and morning in Tokyo.) If you're scheduling a single session, I will email you a PayPal invoice and you will pay me in advance. If you're buying a package, we have our first conversation and THEN I'll send you that invoice, to make sure that we are a good fit before we get going. (I'll walk you through all this.) At the appointed hour, you skype me at my supersecret skype address. If you have technical difficulties, you'll call me using a backup phone system. (It is your responsibility to set this up; if you have wireless internet, it's MANDATORY.) I charge for sessions missed or canceled within 24 hours, unless it's a true emergency.
The Small Print
1. This is where I tell you legal stuff, only I don't have any, except don't be stupid. I'm a life coach, not a doctor or a psychologist.
2. If you don't feel that your session or product was worth the money you paid, talk to me about it. If you can explain to me thoughtfully and with a minimum of snorting why you're not satisfied, I will refund your money without question. I really want you to be satisfied--otherwise I truly don't want your money. (Note: this does not apply to single sessions. On those, if you're not thrilled, we're probably not a good fit for each other. But you could try talking to me about it anyway. I might agree to a refund.)
3. If you live in Japan or for any other reason would prefer to pay in yen, that's fine. I use a $1=￥100 rate, so go right ahead and make a killing off the currency arbitrage. You're welcome. We'll work out a payment method by email.
