About Consultations with Ivy

I help motivated, curious people find natural support for issues such as…

  • Digestive concerns
  • Menstrual cycle discomfort
  • Chronic health conditions
  • Reproductive system imbalance
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Fertility or conception challenges
  • Stress-related disorders
  • Pregnancy preparation

I work with clients by video conference or telephone, or in my office in Durham, NC. Together we uncover the deeper sources of your discomfort or challenge, clarify specific steps to shift your current condition, and identify the support you need to make nourishing changes in your life.

Drawing on insight from Ayurveda, yoga, mindfulness, presence-based coaching and other sources of wisdom, we develop a plan of doable actions and practices, tailored specifically to your needs and desired outcomes. My guidance may include education about:

  • food choices
  • herbal supplements
  • daily routines and schedules
  • yoga or other movement practices
  • meal preparation
  • meditation techniques
  • breathing, chanting or vocalization practices
  • seasonal cleansing and detoxification
  • other self-awareness exploration

Through a process of questioning and discussion, we discover the unique nourishment your system needs to restore balance, and we devise a plan of implementation that will get you there. Your clarity and conviction grow as you discover you can make new decisions about how you live, your behaviors, and the thoughts in your mind.

Ultimately, we draw out the wisdom naturally nestled within you and give it the conditions to flourish. You receive the structure, guidance and support you need to try new practices and establish new habits, which ultimately create a new state of health and wholeness.

Depending on the concerns you want to shift, I usually recommend that we work together for a number of months. Ayurveda addresses problems at the roots of the issue, which by definition takes time.

Coaching Session Structure

Our initial consultation will last about 90 minutes and allows me to gather a great deal of information about your health, your lifestyle, and your main priorities. We will explore the concerns that provoked you to seek support, and we’ll discuss what you want to create in your health and your life. You will leave this first session with detailed action steps to take.

In subsequent follow-up sessions, we will explore what clicked in your action plan, what didn’t, and what effects you observed. Some interventions may show an effect quite quickly, while others may need more time to take root. We expect to run into challenges (if there weren’t any, you would have already resolved this issue!), and we learn important teachings from the challenges themselves. In each follow up session, which lasts 45-60 minutes, we will review your results, explore new ideas and recommendations, and make changes or additions to your action plan.  

The healing process is benefited by a sense of curiosity and excitement about the exploration itself. There are no shortcuts to restoring balance from the roots up. It is always a rich process of self-discovery and revelation, and you will be supported every step of the way.
