  • What is “flexible cadence coaching”? 
    • Flexible cadence coaching is a style of coaching that allows a coach/mentor to develop a very personal relationship with a client by exchanging emails or texts as often as the client would like. 
  • Isn’t this impersonal compared to in person or online video chats? 
    • Not at all!  Flexible cadence coaching puts the client in control of how frequently they get support, and allows them to contact their coach/mentor as often as they would like rather than waiting for a session. 
  • Would you consider doing video chats?
    • I do, but consider them on a case by case basis.
  • How long will it take you to reply to emails or texts? 
    • I reply to emails and texts mid-late morning, early afternoon and early evening to be sure clients do not have to wait long for assistance. 
  • Do you take insurance, HSA or FSA payments? 
    • No, I do not.  
  • Are your services expensive? 
    • Not at all.  I keep the fee affordable so about anyone who wants them can afford these services.
  • What qualifies you to be a coach/mentor?
    • I have been studying Narcissistic Personality Disorder and narcissistic abuse since 2011, and Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) since 2012.  I have experienced narcissistic abuse to the point of developing C-PTSD, which is why I began studying these issues.  As far as grief coaching for pet loss, I always have loved animals, and have loved and lost many over the course of my life.  In September, 2024, I decided to take the course to become a certified grief coach for pet loss to help others who suffer when their precious pets die as I have, and as a way to honor my cat, Molly.
