Step 1 of 5

What should he call you?

First name is enough for now.

What state are you in?

It decides whether this is counseling or coaching. Both are him.

Licensed here. In Michigan this is counseling, under his clinical license.

Coaching, with a clinician behind it. Outside Michigan the work is delivered as coaching — same person, same method, not documented as therapy.

What’s bringing you in?

Closest one. Nothing here is binding.

When can you actually talk?

Pick every window that works — it decides which times he offers you.

Early mornings Midday Afternoons Evenings Weekends

Where should he reach you?

Last step. Nothing is shared with an insurer or an employer.

I understand sessions are $200 per session, paid directly — insurance isn’t billed.

Not for emergencies — if you’re in crisis, call or text 988.

Good. Now pick your time.

Who this is for

People who are good at everything except sitting with this.

Physicians, attorneys, founders, executives, athletes. You already solve problems for a living. That's exactly why this one is annoying — it doesn't respond to the tools that made you successful.

You found out. Or they found out.An affair — discovered, confessed, or ongoing — and every conversation since has been a negotiation you're losing.
The pressure stopped switching off.You took the vacation. You still woke up at 3 a.m. running the same loop.
One event won't file itself away.A loss, a lawsuit, a bad outcome at work, a call you can't unhear. Everyone assumes you've moved on.
Something old came back at a bad time.Things you'd handled a long time ago, resurfacing now that there's more riding on you.
A decision has been sitting on your desk for months.Leave the practice, buy out the partner, end the marriage. You know the options. You can't get to a choice.

Counseling or coaching

Same clinician. The label depends on where you sit.

Licensure is a state line, not a measure of skill. Here's the honest version so nobody's surprised at intake.

IN MICHIGAN

Counseling, under a clinical license

Full scope of practice. Clinical assessment, treatment planning, the whole file. Still self-pay — insurance is never billed, so nothing is reported to a carrier.

EVERYWHERE ELSE

Coaching, from a licensed therapist

Same person, same training, same method — delivered as coaching rather than therapy. No diagnosis, no clinical record, no treatment claim. Most of what high performers actually need from this work lives comfortably on that side of the line.

How it works

Short engagements. Specific problems.

Solution-focused work, not open-ended processing. Most people come in with something concrete and leave when it's handled.

Request a time

The form takes under a minute. You'll get a reply within one business day, from a person, with real openings.

First session

50–60 minutes, online. You describe the problem; you leave with a working definition of it and something to do before the next one.

Then as needed

Weekly, biweekly, or on your schedule. No minimum commitment, no package to buy, no one selling you a program.

The rate

Self-pay, on purpose.

Insurance requires a billable diagnosis and gives a claims processor a say in how long you're allowed to work on your own life. For people in licensed professions and under contract, that's not a small detail.

$200 per session · 50–60 minutes

No diagnostic code, ever
No records released to a carrier or employer
No session caps and no authorizations
No packages, retainers, or minimum terms
Superbill on request if you want to try for out-of-network reimbursement

Before you ask

Fair questions.

Is this therapy or coaching?

In Michigan, counseling under a clinical license. Outside Michigan, coaching — delivered by someone who holds that license and was trained as a therapist. The method doesn't change; the legal framing does.

Will any of this reach my licensing board, employer, or malpractice carrier?

No. There's no insurance claim, so there's no diagnostic code and no third party receiving records. Records are released only if you request it in writing, or in the narrow circumstances every clinician is legally required to act on.

Do you take insurance?

No — that's deliberate, and it's most of what people are paying for. A superbill is available on request if you want to pursue out-of-network reimbursement yourself.

Is it in person or online?

Online, which is what makes evenings and early mornings possible.

How many sessions is this going to take?

The work is solution-focused, so it's usually a defined stretch rather than an indefinite one. You'll have a rough sense after the first session, and there's nothing to cancel if you stop.

My spouse and I both need to be there.

Fine. Say so in the form and the first session gets scheduled for both of you.
