What to Expect

​

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here. If you’re new to homeopathy or wondering what it’s like to work with me, this page will walk you through everything gently, step by step.

​​​

First Consultation

Your first consultation with me usually lasts about 90 minutes, sometimes longer. We’ll stop when I’ve asked everything I need to, or when you’ve shared everything you wanted to. I take a very detailed approach.

 

Your Major Symptoms

We’ll start with your symptoms and really get into the specifics. If you tell me you have headaches, I’ll ask what kind—throbbing, stabbing, or dull? Which part of the head? What makes them worse? What helps? A hot bath? A nap? Are they worse in the morning or at night? Does the weather affect them?

​​

The Rest of Your Body

After we explore your main concerns, I’ll ask about the rest of your body. You might mention your feet are always cold, or that you struggle to wake up in the morning, or that you get a cold every spring. These small details matter—they help paint a full picture of you.

​​

Lifestyle

From there, we’ll talk about your daily life. How’s your sleep? Do you exercise? What do you usually eat for breakfast? What foods do you crave or avoid? How do you feel about coffee? This part can be surprising—we go into more detail than most people expect, but it’s all helpful.

​​

Emotions & Personality

Next, we’ll move on to your emotions and personality. I’ll ask you to describe yourself. How do you deal with stress? Are you more shy or outgoing? What do you worry about? How do you react when things go wrong? This gives me a sense of how you experience the world.

​​

Your Medical History

Then we look at your medical history and any trauma you’ve been through. We go all the way back to birth. What illnesses did you have as a child? What setbacks have you experienced? How did those events shape you? This can be emotional territory, but I’ll guide you gently.

​​

Your Relationships

After that, we’ll discuss relationships. How do you get along with family members, coworkers, or close friends? This might not seem directly related to your health, but it’s actually very important. As people heal, they often start making positive changes—changing their diet, quitting a stressful job, starting something new—and these shifts can stir up reactions in others. I’ve seen it many times: someone makes a breakthrough, and suddenly a partner or friend starts feeling uncomfortable. That’s why it’s important to talk about your support system.

​​

Dreams & Aspirations

At the end of the session, I like to ask about your dreams—both the ones you have at night, and your dreams for your life. Your sleep dreams often hold powerful symbolic clues, and your life dreams tell me where you want to go. What do you hope to change with this treatment? What would your life look like if you healed? These questions are just as important as the physical ones.

​​

Aftercare & Remedies

After the session, I’ll take a few days to study everything and choose the best remedy for you. I use a wide range of homeopathic remedies, and I send them by post. You don’t need to pay extra - the cost of the remedy and mailing is already included in the consultation fee. It usually takes about a week for the remedy to arrive.

​

In the meantime, I’ll give you some lifestyle or mindfulness exercises to work on while you wait. I place a strong focus on these kinds of daily practices. Healing isn’t just about taking a remedy—it’s also about slowly shifting how you live.

​​

Weekly Follow-ups

Unlike most homeopaths who check in once a month, I prefer to offer short weekly follow-ups at first. Just a quick 10-minute chat, once a week, to see how you’re doing. These mini check-ins are included in the price of your initial consultation and continue for the first three months. I’ve found they help keep motivation high and give us a chance to make small course corrections together. After that, we’ll usually shift to monthly consultations.

​​

Confidentiality & Respect

Everything you tell me is kept completely confidential. I’m a one-person practice, and I never share your information with anyone. The only exception is when I’m working with a dependent—like a child—and both parties agree to share details. Otherwise, what you tell me stays between us.

​

I’ve worked with people from six continents, all kinds of personalities and walks of life. Nothing you say will be judged. This is a safe space, and you’re welcome just as you are.

​​

Phone Consultations

Although I live in Japan, most of my clients are in the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Consultations are done by phone, usually through apps like WhatsApp. Most people prefer voice calls because they feel more relaxed and open. Occasionally I do a video call, but that’s rare. Some clients prefer text-based consultations, especially if English isn’t their first language. That’s completely fine. In fact, text consultations can work really well, since you have more time to think and respond.

​

Now and then, I may send you an email between sessions if I have a follow-up question or thought. You’re welcome to write to me too.

​

So that’s what to expect. A deep, personal, supportive process. One step at a time.
