first time clients
Rachel is honored to provide her highest and best assistance to you and your beloved animals.
To that end, as with most therapies, your first session requires more input, focus and therefore, more time. Building this initial foundation is essential to the success of your work together.
All appointments are by phone or Skype.
Your first appointment for 1 animal will be a maximum of 1.5 hours (each additional animal includes another 30 minutes at it’s maximum).
First time appointments always include an intake. It’s your starting place.
Rachel’s knowledge, history, expertise and her rather large tool box of information, modalities and methods allow her, from the information she collects during the intake, to create a session that is totally unique to you and your companions.
To support the success of the work you and your animal(s) have done with Rachel, your first appointment also includes a 15 minute (30 if more than 2 animals) phone check-in within the week following.
The first step in scheduling a session with Rachel is to make payment for your first appointment.
Select phone or Skype (phone sessions have a photo requirement- Skype does not). Scroll to the number of animals you wish to communicate with (if you have more than 6 animals to communicate with please contact Rachel before making payment). Click the “pay now” button. You will be redirected to Paypal to make payment. You do not need a Paypal account to pay via Paypal. Rachel only accepts payments through Paypal.
Once Rachel receives notification of your payment from Paypal she will contact you within 48 hours to schedule your first appointment.
Here’s a bit more detail on what your first appointment will include:
- In the intake portion, Rachel, gathers information about you, your companion animal(s), your household and the issues you wish to address and explains how she can help you and your animals meet your specific needs.
- In the communication portion, Rachel will translate establishing an actual conversation between you and your companion animal(s) in real time. During this, she will employ her intuition, history, knowledge and companion counseling expertise to help resolve any issues through informed and open conversation with you all.
- any healing/energy shifting modalities (such as shamanism, ThetaHealing, etc.) indicated necessary from the intake and communication portion will be instituted and explained by Rachel based on the specific needs of your companion animals and the time allotted.
Rachel’s work is deep acting and intensive and may be very different from other communicators you have worked with. It is all inclusive (Rachel also works with people and environments and finds sometimes the answer to an issue includes focusing on all these aspects), very metaphysical in it’s approach and is based on her knowledge and expertise of near 30 years in practice. Rachel does her utmost to accomplish all that is possible in the time allotted, however, sometimes (and especially where ongoing/chronic issues are involved) more than one appointment and (oh, dread), homework are needed for you and your animals to achieve successful resolution.
After your first appointment, if it is determined that ongoing work is needed for successful resolution, then you have the option of purchasing the intensive package for greater savings or continuing treatment at the returning client rates. Rachel will be happy to discuss this with you to determine which best suits your situation.
One more thing of note, in her near 30 years of practice one of the things Rachel has found most important in her work is a sense of humor and so, know that as intensive and deep as her work is, she makes a point of it being fun including lots of healthy, healing laughter. She knows from experience that our animals have very healthy senses of humor.
Rachel extends her blessings and gratitude for your trust in her work and ability.
