Chai & Chat
In need of a little extra support that isn’t therapy?
You’re considering therapy, but have a lot of questions and need more time to determine if we’re a good fit beyond the 15 minute consultation call.
Perhaps you have a one off issue that you need to vent about or would like a listening ear for.
Or maybe you came to a talk I gave and are curious to learn more about something from the presentation or have other questions.
Regardless of what brings you here, pour a cup of chai, coffee, or your favorite drink and sit down with me to chat about whatever is on your mind!
