Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What do I need to prepare for a Dance/Movement Therapy session?
A: Come as you are! Some clients enter the space with a clear challenge or goal, while others discover what they need as they are in the process. There is usually a mix of both, unique to the individual, couple, or group.
What does a session look like?
A: Each session varies dependent upon what is brought into the session. Some sessions may move for the entire duration of the session, while others may include minimal gestures or postures. Other sessions will include stillness as the movement. Multi-modal options including drama, music, and art therapy techniques may be offered during sessions depending on the client(s) needs and preference.
How long are typical sessions?
A: Sessions range from 45-60 minutes depending on clients’ preference.
How many therapy sessions are needed?
A: Again, this varies on the client or couples’ needs. Length of treatment is a collaborative decision between therapist and client(s). Groups will have more specified session count depending on the group’s focus.
Do you take insurance?
A: I am an out-of-network provider. Please contact me for rates.
How do I book a session?
A: I offer a 10 minute phone consultation for free. Please go to the contact section to set up your consultation.
Do I need dance experience?
A: No! No experience is necessary. Dance/movement therapy focuses on moving how you feel and feeling how you move. Movement is a tool in the therapeutic experience. It is used for exploration and discovery with zero judgment.
What if I am injured or physically limited in my movement?
A: I welcome you just as you are and I will meet you there. Connections can be made in the body without physically moving it and rather through mind, body, and spirit. The client is in control of their movement and their boundaries. I will ensure a safe space. All bodies, minds, and spirits happily welcomed.
