Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow someone to choose a quieter spot for a focused check-in. It can also make shorter check-ins or more frequent appointments easier to schedule when life gets hectic.
