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.

Rather than offer a brief call that risks feeling transactional or performative, I invite you to begin with a Wayfinding Session — a one-time, 50-minute paid session. This is not a sales pitch. It’s 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. 

If you decide to move forward with the 6 month pathway within 14 days, the full cost of the Wayfinding session will be credited toward your mentorship program.

Many of my clients experience a full recovery from their symptoms. Some people see significant improvement quickly. Others need more time to build the safety, clarity, and the internal shifts that allow for sustained change.

Healing is nonlinear, and there’s no infallible protocol that guarantees recovery within a fixed timeframe. That said, with dedication and practice, this work consistently brings meaningful shifts. You’ll find your symptoms become far less disruptive — and just as importantly, you’ll begin to feel more grounded, more confident, and more connected to life.

Because this process is deeply personal, I don’t measure success by a single outcome. In fact, narrowly focusing on the absence of symptoms as an outcome can hinder the shifts we want to bring about. (You might have already learned that outcome independence is a core tenet of Pain Reprocessing Therapy.) Instead, I invite you to expand the definition of what healing means for you. It might look like:

• Re-engaging with activities you’d stopped doing

• Trying that thing you’ve always wanted to with a renewed sense of agency

• Feeling less anxious or preoccupied by symptoms

• Finding that fear no longer runs your life

• Sitting for long conversations in any chair, and traveling without lugging around special pillows

• Sleeping better and feeling greater ease and calm day-to-day

• Ditching Dr. Google and trusting your body again

• Being kind to yourself, free from the endless loop of negative self-talk

• Meeting your experience and feelings with curiosity and equanimity

• Setting boundaries in a way that feels supportive

• Reconnecting with joy, purpose, creativity, and community

• Having more energy and presence for your loved ones

• Cultivating whatever it is you want to grow in your life, and taking steps to move towards what is important and meaningful, instead of being trapped in trying to outrun your symptoms

Whether or not pain or other symptoms fully resolve, these outcomes reflect a return to vitality, and a sense of freedom as the healing journey continues alongside a meaningful, vibrant life. The process to get here is not always easy, but it is always worth it. 

Click here to review a list of symptoms and diagnoses commonly associated with nociplastic pain and symtoms 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 Bodymind Ease Wayfinding Session. 

The most truthful answer is time will tell.

The majority of my clients who experience the most success work with me for 6-12 months, some for 3-4 months, and some for 18 months or longer.

The amount of time and support needed may vary depending on the intensity of your pain or other symptoms, the degree of impairment you’re experiencing, how much support you have in your life, and your capacity for sustained self-direction with self-compassion. If you don’t have a lot of support, feel a lot of fear or resistance around getting started or staying consistent with new practices, or find that your inner critic is really loud, please know this is completely understandable.  

Most of us find that our world and our social ties shrink when we fall into dis-ease, as contemporary life in most societies is simply not structured to support community, mutual aid, and care. Additionally, many of us have been taught to link our worth to feeling well and being more “productive”, making it even harder to meet ourselves with compassion in times of pain, illness, or limitation.

I am dreaming of a world where that is not the case, and in the meantime, practitioners such as myself do provide support while meeting our own very real needs. 

If you’re interested in working with me, I offer a 6 month pathway as a starting point, which includes 8 weekly sessions followed by 8 bi-weekly sessions. I’ve found this rhythm and duration to be especially supportive in building momentum and sustaining healing and integration over time. 

That said, the mentorship pathways I offer are designed to be flexible and responsive, with a range of time frames to support your unique needs. If a different structure feels more aligned for you, we can explore options together in a Bodymind Ease Wayfinder Session.

The Reclaim Your Life 6 month pathway starts with a weekly frequency for the first 8 weeks, and then shifts to bi-weekly frequency. This container — in its rhythm and duration — is the one I’ve found most supportive for creating momentum and sustaining healing and integration. That said, depending on where you are on your recovery journey, and on whether you’re working with other providers or participating in a group program or classes, we can explore other possibilities together in a Bodymind Ease Wayfinding Session. 

Sessions are 50 minutes and shaped by your needs at that moment. We may explore education around pain science or nervous system regulation, bring awareness to stuck patterns, practice mindfulness tools and somatic techniques together, offer space to connect with emotions that have been hard to access or express, or tend to grief around loss and recovery — yes, there is grief around recovering and healing too.

Some sessions are spacious and reflective. Others are more structured or directed. Always, we’ll work collaboratively, and move at the pace your bodymind can integrate. 

I offer between-session email check-ins in the latter portion of the 6-month pathway. Otherwise, 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, you’re to begin with a one-time Bodymind Ease Wayfinder Session.

Ongoing mentorship is available through programs with a set timeframe. I offer a 6-month pathway as a starting point, as I’ve found that this rhythm and duration provide meaningful support in building momentum and sustaining healing and integration over time. If a different structure feels more aligned for you, we can explore possibilities together during your Bodymind Ease Wayfinder Session. At this time, I don’t offer session-by-session availability for new clients.

Once you’ve completed a mentorship program, you’re welcome to add individual sessions as needed.

And if we’ve worked together before, I’m always glad to offer one-off sessions to check in and support you on your ongoing healing journey.

If you believe you're dealing with a new or acute 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.

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 nociplastic, and as understandable manifestations of distress, 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 mentorship is not to diagnose or treat mental health conditions. I offer deep presence, education, nervous system– and trauma-informed 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 

• 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.

Equally — or perhaps, even more — important, 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.

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.

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.

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.

Sliding scale for my mentorship services starts at £3,750 per 6 month pathway.

I know for many this will still be prohibitive, and I 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.

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.
