Equity, Fees, and Support
“Our task is not to seek for love, but to find all the barriers within we have built against it.” ~ RumiEquity Statement
Alove.ca offerings embrace the principles of the Ontario Human Rights Code, with the intention of sharing healing, learning, joy, peace, and love with every human being regardless of ability, affair discovery date (newly betrayed or decades later), age, ancestry, citizenship, color, creed, education, ethnic origin, family status, financial means, gender identity/expression, language, pregnancy, place of origin, race, record of offenses, relationship status (married, common-law, dating, separated, healing alone, etc.), religion (or not), sexual orientation, or any other form of historic oppression. Contact me to arrange any accommodations or supports you may require.
Working With Me
All my fees are adjustable using the sliding scale below. The links below are for credit card payments, but you may also use Paypal. Contact me for e-transfer, barter, installments, or with any questions.
Get coaching with me by choosing either 5 hours ($600) or 10 hours ($1000) and then book your first session. Write to me with questions or for a free consultation (single sessions available by special request only). Find out all about my coaching approach.
After 1-3 sessions most clients feel immensely better, and have made significant progress.
After 5-10 sessions most clients are experiencing deep transformation, healing, and thriving.
Explore speaking and professional learning by contacting me to get started. Fees are $5000/day (private) or $4000/day (public/non-profit), which include planning time. Rates may vary based on audience size, session length, and travel expenses.
Special events, workshops, or series fees vary, and are shown in flyers.
Support group participation is always free, although voluntary donations help with ongoing costs.
Financial Support / Sliding Scale
Wealth inequality is a major contributor to suffering for everyone, but especially the underprivileged. The sliding scale below helps bridge this gap in a compassionate way. My volunteer time and energy running support groups, providing no-cost coaching, and posting free resources are offset through those who can pay, and this sliding scale. Financial means need not be a barrier to thriving.
This sliding scale includes discounted fees (first 3 columns), regular fees (column 4) and pay-it-forward fees (column 5) to support financial accessibility for others. Use this scale for any alove.ca fee as follows.
Circle the column that best describes you in each of the first five rows (if you circled more than one column, just choose the one with the most circles).
Choose a fee adjustment or donation amount from your column (coupon codes for Stripe payments only).
Apply the adjustment to the base fees above and just pay the adjusted amount.
