Initial Consultation

A low-pressure 15-minute call to share what’s on your mind and explore whether IPT is a good fit for you. Talk about concerns, history, and how many sessions may be optimal. 

Ongoing

Weekly or biweekly sessions based on your goals— processing experiences, clearing away emotional clutter, and making meaningful, lasting change.

Your Timeline

Thrive Independently

IPT is designed to empower, not create dependence. Most people navigate their day-to-day lives with newfound purpose and clarity after just a few sessions. While you can always return whenever new growth opportunities arise, the ultimate goal is for you to feel fully capable of leading your life with confidence and peace.

Questions

Things people often wonder

I want you to feel fully informed before reaching out. If your question isn’t here, please get in touch.

Still have a question?

I personally respond to all enquiries within two business days.

What can I expect in the first session?

The first session is a full session—I’ll ask about what brought you to me and what you’d like to focus on. Then we’ll begin the work. We’ll start by having you close your eyes, take a deep breath to ground yourself, and open your heart and mind to listen as I guide you with gentle questions. Each session after will follow the same pattern. 

 

You don’t need to prepare a detailed life story or spend hours prepping! Just come with an open mind, comfortable clothing, and a general awareness of what feels heavy or stuck in your life right now.

It’s also helpful to be well-hydrated, have a light snack beforehand, ensure you have a quiet space to work in, and plan a few minutes after to journal and record your insights. I will guide you step-by-step through the entire process.

Unlike traditional talk therapy where you mostly process on a cognitive level, an IPT session uses guided imagery, somatic awareness, and subconscious processing. Together, we identify where emotional blocks are stored in the body and mind, gently process the underlying root causes, and reframe those patterns so you can experience real, lasting relief.

As a facilitator, I tend to be thorough and detail-oriented, delving into the depths with my clients. Completing a full IPT session with me typically takes 90 to 120 minutes because I don’t like to rush—I want to give you the space you need to unravel the beliefs holding you back.

That said, the pace is guided by you:

  • If you like to examine everything in a room before deciding to keep it: Your session will naturally take a bit longer.

  • If you’re ready to look at a box and say “I don’t need to inspect this, I’m ready to let it go”: Things will move more quickly.

Every person’s journey is unique, but we all share a core need to feel loved, safe, and seen. Depending on the depth of the patterns or trauma you are working to heal, different package lengths offer the best support:

  • 6-Session Package: Ideal if you grew up in a relatively stable environment where your core needs were generally met, but you are currently looking to navigate specific life transitions, current stressors, generational patterns, or targeted personal growth.  

  • 12-Session Package: Best suited if you grew up in a chaotic or unpredictable environment, felt unsafe or unsupported, or experienced significant trauma (such as childhood or adult divorce, severe instability, loss, addiction, adoption, unpredictable caregiving, or abuse). This package provides the extra space needed to gently process and rewire deeper, long-standing patterns. Deep-seated, long-standing trauma takes time to safely unpack and rewire.

That is completely normal! You don’t need a perfect memory or a vivid imagination for IPT to work. We work directly with your body’s current emotional responses and somatic signals, allowing your subconscious to bring up exactly what needs to be processed—no force required.

You won’t have to guess—you’ll feel the transformation both in and out of your sessions:

  • In Session: You’ll experience a physical and emotional sense of relief, gaining sudden clarity and feeling the weight of heavy emotions lift.

  • In Daily Life: You’ll notice your perspective naturally shifting. Old triggers lose their power, and your choices begin effortlessly aligning with who you truly are.

Unfortunately, no. IPT is a specialized holistic modality that isn’t covered by traditional health insurance.

Honest talk? In many ways, that’s a benefit. Working outside the insurance model means your care is never restricted by rigid diagnosis codes, treatment limits, or arbitrary red tape.

IPT is designed to empower you to move through your struggles rather than keeping you locked in an endless cycle of treatment. While it takes time and dedication, each session works to actively rewire your subconscious patterns—helping you build lasting independence, self-trust, and lasting change.

I offer three flexible ways to connect, depending on your location and comfort:

  • In-Person (Northern Utah): I host sessions in a dedicated home office space. This is ideal if you want a dedicated, private physical environment outside of your home, or if you simply prefer sharing the same energetic space in person.

  • Phone Call: Perfect if you prefer to stay in your own comfortable, private space with zero pressure—no need to worry about visual presentation or being seen in a vulnerable moment (and yes, wearing pajamas is completely welcome!).

  • Video Call (Google Meet): A great option if you live farther away but still want that face-to-face visual connection. All you need is a quiet, private space where you won’t be interrupted.

For best results, scheduling sessions every 1 to 2 weeks allows your mind and body enough time to integrate the shifts while keeping positive momentum going. We can customize the pacing based on your individual needs and schedule.
