Working together
Here's what working together actually looks like – the formats, the approach, the fees, and everything else worth knowing before you decide. If something isn't answered here, you're welcome to email before booking.
FORMAT
How it works
Individual therapy
Individual sessions are sixty minutes, held by video call, and typically weekly to begin with. The work tends to deepen over months and years rather than weeks – some clients eventually move to less frequent sessions as the work evolves, but the relationship continues.
Dyadic therapy
Dyadic sessions are for any two people in a significant relationship – not only romantic partners. Friends, chosen family, and people in non-traditional relationship structures are equally welcome. Sessions are sixty or ninety minutes by video call, depending on the work. The longer format is typically used for extended Gottman Method assessment and feedback sessions with romantic partners – I hold Level 1 training.
What Now? Life After a Change
Major life changes have a way of making the future feel suddenly illegible. What Now? is a twelve-week relational and existential process group for adults navigating transition, uncertainty, grief, or identity shifts – people sitting with the question of what comes next and finding it harder to answer than expected.
The group runs for ninety minutes weekly, with a maximum of eight participants, and meets by video call. The work is relational – meaning it happens through the shared experience of being known and knowing others – as much as it happens through individual reflection.
Offered in collaboration with Nadine Cortez, RP, Aphelion Wellness Therapy.
What Now? is currently accepting new members. Enquire to reserve a spot.
IN SESSIONS
The approach
Existential therapy is, by nature, relational and experiential – meaning we pay attention not just to what you bring in, but to what happens between us in the process of working through it. Understanding why something is the way it is and actually experiencing it differently are two separate things. The work attends to both.
The work is conversational but not casual – part of what that means in practice is that you'll be thinking about how you want to use the time, not waiting to be guided through it. What happens between sessions – experiments, reflections, small acts of self-tending – grows out of what we're attending to together, rather than coming from a manual. Some of what comes up will be uncomfortable, and that's usually a sign we're in the right territory rather than the wrong one. What we're attending to tends to show up in the conversation itself – in what gets said, what doesn't, and what happens in the space between.

PRACTICALITIES
Cancellation and Missed Sessions
Sessions cancelled more than 24 hours in advance can be cancelled directly through Jane. For cancellations within 24 hours, please email me. Late cancellations and missed sessions are charged at the full rate – this applies regardless of the reason, and I'd rather be upfront about that than have it come as a surprise.
Booking and Contact
Consultations and sessions are booked through Jane. If you have questions before booking, you're welcome to email. I'd rather you ask than wonder.
Response Times
I read and respond to messages between 11am and 6pm on weekdays, and aim to reply within a few business days. If something is time-sensitive, please say so in your message.
This Practice Is Not a Crisis Service
If you're in immediate danger or need urgent support, local emergency services (911) or crisis lines (988) are better equipped to help. If you're a current client experiencing a difficult moment between sessions, I'd encourage you to draw on the skills and resources available to you – and to reach out to a crisis line if you need immediate support. You're also welcome to email me; I'll do my best to respond promptly, though I can't guarantee availability outside of my regular hours.
