Who were you before you became everyone’s everything?
Four hours.
Six months of progress.
A four-hour, 1:1 deep-dive for the mother who has done enough therapy to know her patterns by heart and still can’t move them in her body. That’s not a failing; insight and embodiment are two different rooms. In one structured session we walk all four stages of the HOME framework. You leave with language, a map, and the felt sense of the next move.

walked in one session.
HOLD
We map your Enneagram type as the survival adaptation it actually is, the pattern your nervous system built when something else wasn’t safe.
OWN
We name what the pattern is costing you. Your marriage. Your nervous system. The version of mothering you actually wanted. Naming the cost is what makes change non-negotiable.
MEET
We go underneath the pattern to what it was protecting. The grief. The fear. The unmet need. The stage most work skips, and the only stage that produces lasting change.
EMBODY
We rebuild the relationship to yourself from the inside. You leave with the felt sense of what you are now moving toward, not just what you are leaving.
Not insight.
Movement.
- The language to name what you have been living inside, so you can interrupt it in real time.
- A working map of your own pattern, your wing, the lines that pull you in stress and in growth.
- The specific cost the pattern has been collecting, named clearly enough that the change becomes non-negotiable.
- The first real contact with the grief or fear the pattern was protecting, without staying inside it.
- A structured 30-day plan for what comes next, including the conversations to have and the conversations to stop having.
- Mothers who feel like they’re disappearing inside roles they chose.
- Women competent on the outside, unrecognizable to themselves on the inside.
- Women who have done years of therapy and keep landing at the same wall.
- Women who can name the pattern intellectually but cannot interrupt it in their lives.
If the first list made you exhale, you’re already in the right room.
- Anyone in acute mental health crisis, that needs different care.
- Anyone looking for validation without challenge.
- Anyone wanting more information about themselves but not actual movement.
- Anyone who treats the Enneagram as a personality quiz.

Four hours.
Six months of progress.
Most mothers spend more than this on a year of therapy that keeps circling the same wall. This is four hours that moves it.
Before you apply
What actually happens in the four hours?
We walk all four stages of the HOME framework in one sitting. We map your type as the survival adaptation it actually was, name what the pattern has been costing you, go underneath it to what it was protecting, and rebuild from there. It is one continuous session, not four appointments.
What is included?
Your four-hour 1:1 intensive with me. Prep work you complete beforehand, so we do not spend the day on background. A structured 30-day integration plan, including the conversations to have and the conversations to stop having. And a follow-up session, included in the price rather than sold separately.
What does it cost?
The Reclaimed Woman™ Intensive is $2,500. The Couple’s Intensive is $3,000 and includes an individual session with each partner before the three-hour intensive together.
Where does it happen?
Video, or in person in Pittsburgh. Both work. Most clients choose video.
How do we start?
You apply on this page. I read every application myself and take a handful of clients each month. If it is a match, we schedule from there.
What happens after the day is over?
You leave with the 30-day plan, and we meet again for your follow-up session. Four weeks out is when the old pattern makes its case for coming back, so that conversation is deliberately timed.
I already know my Enneagram type. Will this still be helpful for me?
Usually, yes, and especially if you have read the books and still land at the same wall. Most people know their type. Fewer know how it operates under stress, inside a marriage, or in the seconds before they say yes when they meant no. This work is about integration, not information.
Will this actually create change, or just more self-awareness?
Self-awareness on its own does not move a pattern. Context and application do. You already have insight. What you likely have not had is four uninterrupted hours with the part of you that built the pattern, which is a different thing than talking about her.
Is this therapy?
No. This is consultative, insight-oriented work. I am a licensed therapist, and this is not psychotherapy: it is not treating a diagnosis or processing trauma. It is time-limited, focused, and structured, for people who want clarity and direction without opening an ongoing clinical relationship.
