First Step:
Book a Free Connection Call
Let's meet to ensure this collaboration is the right support for you.No strings attached—you can take as long as you'd like after to decide if you'd like to schedule any sessions.
1. Schedule a time in the calendar below.2. You'll receive a confirmation email with a Zoom link* for our meeting.3. Mark it in your calendar — the call is scheduled for 30 minutes.
*Note: If you prefer Brave Talk instead of Zoom, let me know in the 'additional notes' field when booking.
Bookings less than 18 hours ahead are welcome, though will be tentative until confirmed on my end.If you aren't available during the listed times, send me an email, as accommodations may be possible for those with limited schedules or in different time zones.
Booking for TRE® Only:
I recommend beginning with an Initial Connection Call via the calendar above.However, if you are only interested in TRE® at this time and you'd prefer to book straight into a session, you're welcome to do so with the buttons below. I will email you with a consent form and instructions for how to prepare for your online session.To book in-person sessions in Vancouver, BC, please begin with an Initial Connection Call.Click each button for further details and descriptions:
Rates: Typically we decide this together prior to booking—in the spirit of choice, mutual sovereignty, balanced care, and trust. However, if you book straight in to a session without an Initial Connection Call, you'll choose from the sliding scale below:Personal Sessions: $90-$120 CAD | Group Sessions: $45-$75 CAD per person
What are group sessions? This is an opportunity to ask your community members or loved ones if they'd like to join you in this experience—each from your own private space with your own video call connection!Group sessions allow you to deepen connection with your fellow humans—friends, family, or housemates—through the simple act of sharing time for gentle self-healing alongside each other, all in a safely held and guided experience.

The following points outline the structure for our collaboration together in this supportive coaching context.
Structure for Collaborating Together
Private one-to-one Sessions
We decide together how often. You decide how many. Always free to change your mind.For OI™ Coaching, booking in chunks of 5-6 sessions can be a nice option. This provides a natural check-in point to reflect on progress, re-orient to your north star from your new vantage point, and assess your desires moving forward—including if and when you'd like to.A helpful note: It supports a deeper recalibration of your resilient, integrated, rhythmic physiology if we schedule your coaching sessions at a regular rhythm (e.g. every Thurs at 3pm for 5 sessions).For TRE®, a series of 4-6 sessions is recommended to build a well-informed and confident foundation to continue this easeful self-healing practice on your own anytime.
Location: Online
The majority of my sessions are offered via video call.Sessions will take place via Zoom.Alternatively, we can meet on Brave Talk if you'd prefer a data-sovereignty-prioritized platform. My Zoom settings are set to the most privacy-forward options, though I’m more than happy to host our meetings on Brave Talk if that feels the most aligned for you.
Location: Outdoors
I offer a limited number of outdoor nature sessions per week in and around Vancouver, BC. If this piques your interest or curiosity, ask me about this during our Initial Connection Call.
Flexible Pricing
I have no set rates. Instead, we decide this together from a place of mutual sovereignty, balanced care, and trust.I believe healthy, collaborative relationships are formed on a foundation where each individual’s personal integrity and unique needs are valued and included. Setting aside the one-size-fits-all model, we are free to decide what feels correct for us in the present moment of our lives, and for our unique partnership.We can chat about this more in the Initial Connection Call. My intention is for this process of collaborative choice to feel liberating and even nourishing!That said, if you prefer, I can provide a sliding scale range to choose from.Note: If you book straight into a TRE® session without booking an Initial Connection Call first, you will be offered to pay as you wish from a sliding scale of $90-$120 CAD for personal sessions or $45-$75 CAD per person for group sessions.It helps to contribute what you are able to in order to generate more space for those in our community that need greater accessibility support.
Payment Structure
You choose! — Pay per session, or pay for a handful of sessions to save you the logistics of making a payment each time.You are never locked into the sessions scheduled, even if you pay ahead. You are allowed to cancel anytime (with at least 24-hour notice). If you have pre-paid for the session(s) you are cancelling, you will receive a full refund, or can apply the funds to a future session.
Session Structure for OI™ Coaching
For the coaching sessions themselves, there is no plan; except to have no plan!For you: Simply come exactly as you are and engage in what Organic Intelligence® calls a free-association conversation, where anything and everything is welcome—your only job is enjoyment!For me, your coach: Every session is a spontaneous attunement to your biology’s self-organising impulses. We simply follow this naturally-calibrated current and enjoy the unique and resourceful pathway it takes to the exact experiences your biology needs—in the organically-intelligent order and timing that only your system knows.Some education will also be a part of our sessions, so that you can be empowered to bring the deep, easeful healing of OI™ into your everyday life.
Session Structure for TRE®
Initial sessions start with an introduction to the practice of TRE, its benefits, and my OI™-informed recommendations for increasing its ease and efficacy for long-term results.You will then be guided through the 7 standardized exercises of TRE, or just the ones your system needs that day (or what is attuned to the group as a whole, in the case of group sessions). The exercises end with a 5-15 minute experience of your body's natural, self-healing tremor or gentle vibration. I will hold space, support, and lightly guide where needed throughout the whole experience.After a rest and debrief, we can discuss practicing TRE® at home on your own, if you're feeling ready to do so.Follow-up sessions may spend more time in the tremor response, and may or may not include the initial exercises, depending on your nervous system and level of experience.
Ethical Guidelines
In my role as an Organic Intelligence® Coach, I am willingly committed to the code of ethics outlined by the US Association for Body Psychotherapy, of which OI™ is a top-tier-recognized member. Within my awareness, this is the most comprehensive, conscientious, and relevant ethical framework available for a coach that employs both somatic, relational, and psychological approaches. Details available here.

Learn about Joy, her story & her approach in supporting you:
“We heal—personally and professionally—not by dredging up the past, not “feel it to heal it”, not growing our ‘window of tolerance’ to pain and suffering. We heal in the here and now, through attuned relationship, support, and kindness. When our biology enters the phase of auto-organization, symptoms are relieved, self-efficacy emerges, and one’s post-trauma growth journey takes wings."

Founder of Organic Intelligence®
