I don’t offer complimentary discovery calls, and I’d love to share why.

This work is nuanced and complex. In my experience, 15–30 minutes isn’t enough time for your nervous system to settle, for me to meaningfully understand your experience, or for either of us to assess fit with the care it deserves. Those short sessions can end up feeling rushed, and don’t allow for the kind of presence I value at every stage of this work.

In case the intake feels a bit too much to begin with, and you'd like to have the time and space to get to know me, ask questions, and build a foundation of trust and comfort with me before sharing your story in depth, you can opt for a standalone 50-minute Wayfinding Session. Rather than offer a brief call that risks feeling transactional or performative, this is a chance to arrive fully, explore some of your questions with care, and explore whether working together feels right and if so, at what pace. 

While I won’t be able to answer every question you might have or dive into every aspect of your story in just one session, what I can do is offer perspective, insight, and clarity about next steps. If it’s a fit, we can continue. And if not, I’ll point you toward thoughtful referrals or resources that may better serve you. 

After this session, you have the option to move forward with two more sessions for the in-depth assessment package, with a remaining balance of £600.
Alternatively, you can choose to credit this fee toward my 6-month mentoring program within the next 14 days.

Click here to review a list of symptoms and diagnoses commonly associated with neuroplastic/nociplastic pain and symtoms (also known as TMS/mindbody) arising from sensitized neural pathways and conditioned responses, rather than ongoing injury, illness, or structural damage. If you are experiencing one or more of the symptoms or have been diagnosed with a condition included in this list, there is hope for full recovery through a mindbody approach. 

Beyond the list, my personal experience and over 25 years of practicing medicine and psychotherapy have shown me over and over again that anyone and everyone can grow in ease, wellbeing and liveliness through a mindbody approach. Even in the presence of illnesses in which a genetic or biological aspect is more prominent (.i.e. “structural” conditions, including musculoskeletal injuries, neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune conditions, and cancer), we can harness the power of bioplasticity to enhance health and resilience and live more fully. 

If you’re curious to explore working together and want to ask about your particular condition, you can either get in touch here or book a standalone Wayfinding Session. 

Once you book your first session, you will receive a questionnaire from me. The questionnaire is thorough, and invites you to share as much or as little as you want. My clients usually share that they develop important insights through the process of answering the questions. And your responses help me develop a deeper and more nuanced understanding of who you are, what matters to you, what connects you with purpose and joy, what you want and need, the context of your lived experience, the resources you have access to, your symptom patterns, and other aspects that can open possibilities for healing and recovery.

The assessment includes three 50 minute sessions, and each session is shaped by your needs.

The first two sessions give us the time and space to explore your story, symptoms, needs, resources, and context in depth. We can identify patterns, clarify whether a neuroplastic component may be contributing to your symptoms, and, when helpful, use gentle provocative testing as developed by Dr. Howard Schubiner, with whom I am trained and certified, to bring additional insight. These sessions allow us to parse the complexity of your experience with nuance and precision, while fostering safety, trust, and clarity.

The third session focuses on integration. This is an opportunity to review what you’ve learned, answer any remaining questions, and clarify next steps for your healing and recovery.

In each session, we might start with a body based practice to help your nervous system access safety and trust as we go, or go straight into conversation: your choice.

We may explore education around pain science or nervous system regulation, bring awareness to stuck patterns, offer space to explore the connection between your symptoms and emotions that have been hard to access or express, identify parts of you that are yearning to be seen, heard, and tended to, and address anxiety or doubts about diagnoses you’ve received, treatments you’re engaging in, and your mindbody healing journey.

Sometimes sessions are more spacious and reflective. Others are more structured or directed. Always, we’ll work collaboratively, and move at the pace your bodymind can integrate and honoring what you want and need from our work together.

Our work together will be focused within our scheduled sessions. This boundary supports the depth and sustainability of the care I provide, and also honors your capacity to integrate the work between sessions.

If you’re new to my work, I offer the choice between the in-depth assessment or a one-time Wayfinding Session as a first step to:

• get started with my 6-month mentoring pathway to support your healing and recovery

• have the time and space to get to know me, ask questions, and build a foundation of trust and comfort with me before sharing your story in depth.

After this consulting call you can choose to add the two remaining sessions for a full intake, or proceed with the 6-month mentoring program to heal and Reclaim Your Life.

The investment for the Wayfinding Session is £350.

You then have the option to move forward with two more sessions for the in-depth assessment package, with a remaining balance of £600.

Alternatively, you can choose to credit this fee toward my 6-month mentoring program within the next 14 days.

If you believe you're dealing with a new, acute, or urgent medical issue, it's important to consult a licensed healthcare provider in your country.

While I cannot diagnose or treat you medically in the context of mentorship, I bring decades of medical and psychotherapeutic experience into our work. I can offer education, context, and perspective to help you better understand your symptoms and have more informed conversations with your care team.

Often, people with neuroplastic symptoms experience significant anxiety around health, even after different specialists have ruled out significant concerns, and with multiple lab/imaging results that are within the normal or expected range. They can find themselves caught in a loop or story that there is something terribly wrong that just hasn’t been found yet. If this sounds like you, the symptoms and anxiety you’re experiencing can be different manifestations of the fear-pain/symptom cycle that may be addressed, and healed, through a mindbody approach and neural repatterning practices. We can explore this together.

Yes. Many of my clients experience mental health challenges, or have received psychiatric diagnoses, including depression, anxiety, and post traumatic stress, and find this work deeply supportive.

In fact, many of the symptoms in the realm of mental health can be understood in different ways from a mindbody and person-centered perspective. We can conceive them as understandable manifestations of distress and protective mechanisms, making sense of them in a way that honors your unique story, context, and culture. I don’t believe our challenges are signs of something broken or disordered, but rather meaningful responses to the complexities of our life and environment.

Together, we’ll explore what’s arising with curiosity and compassion, creating space for insight, healing, and change that’s rooted in connection, not labels.

It’s important to note that while I bring decades of experience as a physician and psychotherapist to our work, my role in this assessment is not to diagnose or treat mental health conditions. I offer deep presence, education, nervous system and trauma-integrative support, and collaborative meaning-making.

If you’re in active crisis or in need of clinical mental health care, I may encourage you to work alongside a licensed therapist or psychiatrist as part of your support system.

While I only offer clinical care as a physician and psychotherapist to residents of Mexico, I bring those lenses, and that extensive training and experience, into every session of pain recovery mentorship.

This means I can help you:

• Make sense of complex medical language, 

• Translate confusing or scary diagnoses or findings, 

• Integrate context and nuance in a way that reduces fear and overwhelm, 

• Identify how neuroplastic mechanisms are affecting your symptoms through evidence-based assessment,

• Work through lingering doubts about your symptoms and recovery,

• Gain clarity on the process of deprescribing or tapering off medications to support informed, empowered conversations with your healthcare provider,

• And offer guidance and education that’s both accurate and compassionate. 

Rather than spiral or get lost down rabbit holes of internet searches or worst-case scenarios, you gain access to insight, grounded education, and practical guidance rooted in expertise and evidence-based practice.

After 25 years of practicing medicine and psychotherapy, I am deeply comfortable with the full range of human experience, from health to debilitating illness, from uncertain prognosis to end of life, and from deep challenge to thriving through connection, creativity, and purpose.

I’ve sat with people of all ages in moments of all-consuming fear and grief, physical vulnerability, emotional complexity, trauma responses, and profound transition, as well as moments of expansive joy, deep love, and the vibrant aliveness that can emerge even in the midst of loss and difficulty. And I’ve had plenty of personal practice with my own healing and recovery journey.

This has deepened my ability to stay present, attuned, and steady even in experiences that may feel especially intense, unsettling, triggering, or overwhelming. 

You don’t have to go through those moments alone. I will meet whatever unfolds with radical presence, curiosity, clarity, and compassion.

Schedule your Wayfinding Session.

Yes. As part of my commitment to equity and sustainability, I offer as many sliding scale spots as I can while still meeting my needs, with priority given to those in countries with lower income and limited or no access to welfare or social security. At this time, all spots are full, and there is a waitlist.

You're warmly invited to join the waitlist. When you do, you'll receive a curated list of trusted, like-minded practitioners who may currently have availability at a lower rate.

I also offer a growing library of free resources and practices, as well as periodic free or low-cost workshops. If you'd like to stay connected and be the first to hear when new offerings become available, you're warmly invited to join my mailing list. I’d love to share these resources with you.

My rates are structured with care and intention to reflect the time, expertise, presence, and deep labor — emotional, intellectual, and somatic — that this work requires, while also sustaining my practice and meeting my financial needs and responsibilities, including caregiving for my elders in Mexico. This allows me to continue showing up fully and sustainably for those I serve.  

Fair compensation for care work, especially when offered by women and practitioners from historically excluded communities, is part of the more just world I’m working toward.

I am not in-network with any insurance providers. 

Depending on where you live, and on your insurer, you may be able to receive some reimbursement if your policy has out-of-network benefits. In order to do this, you will be required to have your Primary Care Practitioner provide a diagnosis for you, and approve in writing the services you’ll be receiving from me. 

It is best to call your insurance company to find out what your benefits are, to see if you are eligible for reimbursement.
