My unique model challenges the status quo, emphasizing results over mere sessions.
Even though there are many self directed healing procedures on my blog, many people would rather have a coach or therapist help them with more complex issues.
Visualize this: Your vehicle is in a dire state—spewing smoke, backfiring, quivering, and producing a variety of odd noises. You visit the mechanic, who is surprisingly candid. “Our rate is $150 per hour,” he declares, “and regular visits are necessary to thoroughly diagnose your car’s issues and to establish a genuine working relationship. The duration of the repair is uncertain, and we offer no guarantees, not even for straightforward issues like a flat tire or a dead battery.”
Would you consider going elsewhere? That situation provides a fairly precise analogy that mirrors the current psychotherapy landscape.
Now, picture a different scenario—I’m a therapist/coach who operates on a unique model. I make a solid promise: I will help you overcome any emotional challenge you’re facing for a set fee. You won’t have to pay until you’ve achieved the healing you’re seeking.
My approach, as described in the scenario, differs from traditional therapy in several key ways:
Payment Structure:
- Traditional therapy/coaching typically operates on a fee-for-service model, where clients pay per session, regardless of the outcome.
- In contrast, my approach involves a results-based payment model. You only pay if and when you feel you have been healed, aligning my incentive with your success.
Guarantee of Results:
- The fixed-rate model I offer includes a guarantee of healing for a specific emotional issue, which is not common in the field.
To begin, you must fill out the emotional checklist outlined in the provided link:

Then, you propose to me how much you are willing to pay for the resolution of your emotional issue(s), along with the evidence you will use to determine that it is no longer an issue. I will then agree or disagree with your proposed price.
I have found that most people seeking therapy have more than one issue. Imperative Self Analysis (ISA) is the most amazing and powerful therapeutic modality in existence and is my favorite for change work:
