Your Questions, Answered

  • Therapy addresses diagnosis and clinical treatment.

    Coaching is forward-focused work on clarity, decisions, patterns, and accountability.

    If at any point therapy is the better fit, I’ll name that clearly. Additionally, if you are in crisis, therapy comes first.

  • You can reschedule on the app/website up until 12 hours before your meeting. Less than 12 hours? Message me. We’ll reschedule at the next available time.

  • Simply put, box breathing is a simple four-part breath pattern (example: 4 count inhale- 4 count hold- 4 count exhale- 4 count hold - repeat). 

    It interrupts stress loops and restores internal stability -so you can think clearly and move cleanly. We’ll practice it together until you can use it when it actually matters- in stress, conflict, and decision-making.

  • This is talking, some interruptions, and lots of questions. We meet online (video optional) once a week and start every call where you are in that moment. There are two objectives no matter the day or the circumstance:

    • You leave lighter than when we started.

    • You have at least one clear focus for the coming week.

  • Absolutely. That said, the people I work with sometimes overcommit — to therapy, to other providers, to too much at once. When I sense that, I'll name it and we'll find better timing.

    Appointments are valid for 60 days.

    Medical emergencies are handled case by case — just reach out.

  • We find what you can't see from where you're standing. Pattern recognition, experience, and visionary inclinations often show me options that you may not have seen or dismissed. We’ll handle the obvious, practical responses, and we’ll also work with the intuitive and non-linear signals that can reconstruct context and create breakthroughs in workflow, collaboration, new ideas, or concepts.

  • No — I work entirely online, which means you can access this work from anywhere, and I can keep my rates affordable.

  • Yes, I am a texter. Sometimes I will feel a nudge to check in, and sometimes you might need to send out a flare to get your bearings. Texts are usually responded to in minutes or hours, my guarantee is 24 hours, Monday through Saturday, no response on Sundays.

  • Animal Medicine is a system of wisdom rooted in the teachings of Indigenous North American traditions — most notably the work of Jamie Sams and David Carson, who drew these stories from the Choctaw, Lakota, Seneca, Aztec, Yaqui, Cheyenne, Cherokee, Iroquois, and Mayan traditions, to bring this knowledge into the Medicine Cards deck. It draws on the qualities, behaviors, and medicine that different animals carry as teachers.

    It isn't fortune-telling.

    It isn't prediction. It's a mirror.

    When I pull cards from the Animal Medicine deck, I'm not telling you what's coming. I'm showing you what's already there — something you've been circling, avoiding, or almost letting yourself see.

    The animal that shows up is never an accident. It's an invitation to look at something you already know but haven't yet let yourself say out loud. The cards came before the coaching. They were my first language for this work.

    A reading can stand alone, or it can be the sideways door into something deeper.

  • Tarot has an ancient lineage that has evolved over thousands of years. It is a specific, structured system — particular cards, elements, numbers, suits — that traces the arc of human evolution like a complete story told in symbols.

    To read tarot is to build meaning the way a paragraph is built from letters: piece by piece, symbol by symbol, until the picture forms.

    Animal Medicine works differently. The cards come from the oral traditions of the Cherokee, Seneca, and Choctaw peoples, brought into the Medicine Cards deck by Jamie Sams and David Carson in 1988 in collaboration with Native elders. These stories are ancient even if the cards are not. And unlike tarot, there is no single overarching narrative running through them — no arc of human evolution from card to card. Each animal carries its own medicine, its own teaching.

    The biggest difference is this: these readings rely on storytelling, not symbolism. I'm not assembling meaning from parts. I'm sitting with you inside a story that's already been told — and finding where you are in it. If tarot is a language built from letters, Animal Medicine is a story told around a fire.

    Both are true. They're just different ways in.

  • Women in the middle of something real. A transition that doesn't have a clean name yet. An identity that stopped fitting. A life that looks fine from the outside but feels like it's asking for something more.

    I work especially well with women who are BIPOC, first or second-generation, or carrying a history that others don't quite have the context to understand. You won't need to spend our time building a glossary.

    If something in you is trying to come through — you're in the right place.

    This work is not for people in active mental health crisis. If that's where you are, therapy comes first. I'll tell you that directly if I ever sense it's the case..

  • I'm based in Arizona, but I work entirely online — which means geography isn't a barrier.

    If you have a reliable connection and we can find overlapping hours, we can work together. I've worked with women across the US and internationally.

    The only thing that matters is that you're ready to show up.
