Meditation

Meditation that meets you where you are.

We begin with you.

A 1:1 meditation session begins as a conversation. We sit together—face-to-face or online—in a quiet environment and talk about what has actually been happening in your practice. I may ask, “When you sit down to practice, where does your attention naturally go first?” From there, we explore the details: the racing thoughts, the boredom, the restlessness, the moments when practice feels natural, and the moments when it does not.

I listen closely—not just to what you tell me, but to how you seem to be experiencing the practice. Then, rather than spending the entire session talking about meditation, we meditate together. I guide you through a brief practice so we can explore what is happening in real time.

This is where the session becomes deeply individualized. If focusing on the breath seems to create more effort than ease, for example, we might shift to a soft visual gaze or the feeling of your hands resting in your lap. We notice what changes. You tell me what arose. We adjust again if needed.

What you might ordinarily call a distraction, impatience, or even a failed attempt becomes something we can work with. Instead of judging those moments, we become curious about what they reveal about your attention and what kind of practice may support you.

Before we finish, we turn what we discovered into something concrete for the week ahead. You leave with a clear practice to explore at home—perhaps ten minutes with your eyes half-open, or gently noting “hearing” whenever a sound enters your awareness.

The purpose of our time together is not for you to perform meditation correctly in front of me. It is for us to discover, together, how meditation can become a practice you know how to work with on your own.

What We Can Explore Together

Your 1:1 session might focus on:

• Beginning a meditation practice when you’re not sure where to start

• Working with a busy, wandering, or restless mind

• Exploring eyes-open, movement-based, sensory, or traditional seated practices

• Understanding what happens when boredom, impatience, or discomfort arises

• Refining a practice that already works for you

• Building a practice you can realistically return to in everyday life

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this different from using a meditation app?
Yes. In a 1:1 session, there is another person paying attention to what is happening in your practice with you. We can talk about what you are experiencing, meditate together, make adjustments in real time, and develop a practice for you to explore between sessions.

I have a busy mind, racing thoughts, or difficulty sitting still. Can I still meditate?
Absolutely. You do not have to arrive with a quiet mind or an ability to sit perfectly still. We can explore different ways of working with attention—including breath, sound, visual anchors, sensation, touch, and movement—to discover what feels accessible to you.

Is your approach neurodivergent-friendly?
Yes. My teaching is informed by the understanding that people experience attention, sensory input, movement, and stillness differently. That means we can adapt the practice instead of assuming everyone should meditate in exactly the same way. You do not need to identify as neurodivergent to practice with me. Everyone is welcome.

Do I need meditation experience before requesting a session?
No. You can come to your first session having never meditated before, having tried and struggled with meditation, or already having an established practice that you want to understand or refine.

Do you offer online sessions?
Yes. Sessions can take place online via Zoom. The request form also allows you to indicate whether you are interested in meeting in person or are open to either option.

What happens after I submit a 1:1 meditation request?
I’ll review what you share and follow up with you by email about next steps. Submitting the form does not commit you to a session.
