WHAT TO EXPECT
IN-PERSON VISITS
When we meet in person--whether in a borrowed office in the greater Seattle area or a cozy lodge nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia or a breezy spot on the Sunshine Coast of Australia--expect to share a pot of tea with me.
Especially if there's a fair amount of counseling to do;
it's so much easier to tell one's story when the hands are wrapped around a comfortably warm mug.
Let's make sure tissues are handy, too.
I expect us to be open, honest, respectful and curious.
I'll bring my favorite portable tools with me, just in case you need on-the-spot help to relax and tell your story.
We'll likely need a good 90 minutes together;
let's afford more time if there are more people in attendance.
Ooh!
Which brings me to the idea of group gatherings
for education and becoming acquainted with one another.
(That's a GREAT idea! And a whole lot of fun!)
Either way--solo or group--I'll provide homework to get you MANY steps closer to your health goals.
ON-LINE STUDIES
Courses are “Do-It-Yourself”-style with graphics, pictures, and stories scattered throughout to answer your questions, explain as much as I deemed appropriate,
paperwork to record your habits and progress,
what to monitor and why,
instruction on when to call your prescribing doctor and why,
helpful dialogue for talking with your prescribing doctor to get the medication you're on reduced/discontinued.
You must qualify to take any course; those who do not qualify may apply to work directly with me via phone consults.
PHONE CONSULTS
These are just like in-person visits, only we don't share the same pot of tea!
You tell your story,
I take notes
and coach you back onto the path of health
so that you reap the benefits of living vibrantly healthy and on purpose!
Calls may be recorded and sent to you in case you need to re-hear a bit of advice or encouragement.
All general and particular homework will also be sent via email.
WHAT THE THREE ABOVE OPTIONS ALL HAVE IN COMMON
I will be your wholistic specialty care doctor. Not your primary care provider.
I will augment what your current team is doing for you, not replace it.
Fees
I am currently available as a wholistic specialty care physician, ready to work with you online, in private or group settings and/or via telehealth consultations.
How this works:
Schedule a First Office Call (FOC) with me to determine your best and safest Plan to determine...
Your Goals,
My additional Goals for you*
"All-the-Things" you'll need to accomplish those goals
Which ones I can provide for you and which ones I can't
Your expected Timeline for Healing
Options for working with me
Costs associated with the various Options.
*Because I know what you need even better than you do, having done this for so long with so many people and not living in your forest, so I can see which trees need to be pruned or removed ("Can't see the forest for the trees" reference here), I'll also provide MY Goals FOR You!
All in a written report that you will receive via email within ONE WEEK of our meeting. Cost for FOC + Plan: $500
OR You could certainly "Do-It-Yourself" with a Course I've already written on REVERSING disease!

REVERSING Type 2 Diabetes
REVERSING Asthma
REVERSING High Blood Pressure
REVERSING Cholesterol Abnormalities

Group counseling: 1 hour, once weekly for 12 weeks to go through the course together: ADD $2160
(My hourly rate after the FOC is $300/hour. Group counseling rate has been discounted to $180/hour.)Insurance
As your wholistic specialty care doctor, I am unable to accept insurance. This means I will not do any type of insurance billing, processing or creating insurance "super bills" for you to submit to insurance for reimbursement.
I do not want insurance standards, policies and reimbursement fees to dictate my recommendations and guidance for clients.
I provide a personalized approach for your unique health situation, not swayed by the insurance decisions that often stand in the way of even a conventional medicine approach.
I do not want to raise my hourly rate for clients to account for adequate staffing to fight with the insurance companies for reimbursement.
Insurance companies currently dictate the practice of medicine according to their own rules, often changing without notice or for any valid reason.
I am wandering the globe, gaining opportunities to reach hurting people around the world.
Insurance rules vary wildly and naturopathic medicine may or may not require licensing in the various states where my clients reside.
I am unable to make exceptions to this rule.
