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.

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.

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 a phallus!' 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.

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. 

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. 

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.

Most of us don't even know how much gunk is in our minds until we start the cleaning process.  Exhibit A: my vegetable drawer.  Sustained attention over several months will clear the lens of your mind so you can make decisions, follow your dreams, or start a revolution from a place of powerful clarity. 

Ever look around and wonder how you ended up there?  Ever look in the mirror and wonder who was staring back at you?  Clear away the debris, untangle your painful thinking, and open up room for your dreams to bloom.  Connect with your essential self, tap into your body's wisdom, and learn to trust your intuition.  You can't BELIEVE how much joy and momentum you can find when you take responsibility for living the life you want.  Six sessions by phone or skype.  $500.

It's not beautiful when you're puking in your purse.  Even so, I believe that giving birth can be the most empowering experience of a woman's life.  It can light something up in us, it can unleash a torrent of love and purpose and momentum--not just for our baby, but for the world.  Step into that by  actively leading your pregnancy and birth rather than passively letting it happen to you.  Leading is not the same thing as controlling, so forget having a 'perfect' birth-- have an intentional one, where you are empowered and fluid as you negotiate the profound transition to motherhood.  (Note: I had a water birth, and it was wonderful, but I honestly think that the best way for any woman to give birth is however she feels safest and strongest.  I will not push you toward a particular birth style.)  Six sessions by phone or skype.  $500.

Creative, intuitive, scatterbrained people are my favorite.  They have the best ideas...they just can't remember where they wrote them down.  I've pulled ideas and systems from all over the place and refined them for those of us who suffer from overwhelming P-ness (that's a Myers Briggs joke) or overwhelming parenthood, or overwhelming lifedom.  I use David Allen's system Getting Things Done, techniques for people with ADD, and Martha Beck's Four-Day Win to help you find order, purpose, and momentum in the chaos.  Six sessions by phone or skype.  $500.

When you start paying attention to your dreams, both the night-time ones and the ones that just rise up from your toes, you're telling your unconscious that you're ready to hear whatever it has to say.  It can be terrifying, and it can be so sweet you'll fall to your knees.  A daily e-mail dialogue will facilitate  the decoding of dream messages, as well as provide companionship, support, and mentoring throughout this thrilling but often intense journey.  One session by phone or skype; daily (unlimited) e-mail access for six weeks.  The e-mails I send you will not be long or flowery, but they will be extremely useful.  $420. 

Confidence in front of a group of people is not an inborn talent.  It's a skill, and I can teach it to you.  You know that dream where you try to talk and all that comes out is a little whisper?  That used to be me.  IN REAL LIFE.  I was the shy girl who blushed if someone even looked at me.  Ironically, now I make my living with my big mouth.  I've performed in front of audiences numbering thousands; I've MC'd corporate, charity, and fashion events with hundreds in the crowd; I've done radio, TV, and film.  I've gotten really comfortable delivering other people's words for them.  In fact, the hardest thing for me now is to stand up in a room with 20 people in it and talk as myself about things I care about.  So last week when I did that very thing, I made mental notes of all the techniques I've learned as an actress that help me to channel my pre-speech butterflies into fuel for a powerful talk.  That's right, I'm afraid the bad news is that the jitters don't go away.  But I can teach you to USE them to make your presentation more impactful, more authentic, and more fun.  This class will be useful for anyone who wants to feel more comfortable talking out loud, whatever the context.
