Fees
PDA Parent Coaching
Book a session whenever you need it. No need to commit on an ongoing basis. Whatever fits your schedule!
Sessions are $ 290.99,- for a 90-minute session.
EMDR Therapy Services
EMDR Therapy needs a bit more commitment compared to coaching. To ensure your safety we can't start with processing memories immediately. EMDR Therapy includes an important preparation phase, however we can be flexible with how often we see each other to ensure it still fits in your schedule and to make it affordable. Just contact me to see what is possible.
Sessions are $290.99 for a 90-minute session.
