New Client Information

Toni's Home-Office in the Oakland Hills
Welcome to my practice. Your comfort is my priority, so your time here will be relaxed and enjoyable. Please feel free to ask questions at any time. Let me know immediately if you are experiencing any discomfort. Nothing is too small to mention.

Location: Sessions are conducted in my home-office in the Montclair area of the Oakland Hills, near highways 13 and 24. Written directions are available.

Online Sessions: Energy is not confined to time and space. Distant Healing Sessions, as well as Transformational Counseling, and Holistic Teaching are easily conducted online. Personalized plans are created for individual needs, and priced accordingly. Plans might include email, phone, and Skype sessions, as appropriate.

Appointments: Appointments are available days and evenings, 7 days a week. When we schedule an appointment, that time is set aside for you. Please call as soon as possible to change or cancel, so I can offer that time to someone else. You can leave messages on my answering machine between 10am and 10pm. With 48 hours notice there is no cancellation charge. With less than 48 hour notice, the full fee is charged. 

What to Wear: Please wear comfortable clothing to sessions. Plain, soft clothing with few thick seams, buttons and zippers works well, since clothing remains on at all times. Be prepared to take off shoes, watches, belts, and large jewelry. Because they carry a strong energetic vibration, please come to your session without noticeable fragrances or perfumes. 

Arriving: Please arrive on time for your appointment so we can have the full time together. Parking is readily available.

Homework: My goal is to facilitate peaceful, healthy, energized living  through energy work, support, and education. Because I believe that you are your own primary caregiver, I help you create strategies for self-care. Homework is designed to give you immediate practice applying new tools appropriately in your daily life. Energy work is cumulative. So every second of Self-Help practice you do, lengthens the benefit of your sessions, and continues bringing you toward vital health and wholeness. 

After Your Sessions: Before resuming normal activities, allow 20-30 of peaceful time with yourself. Remember to drink lots of water! Energy work helps rid the body of toxins. Drinking water facilitates this cleansing process.

If you like baths, a bath with Epsom salts is good for this purpose, as well as for relaxing muscle tension. To enhance the natural healing process, allow yourself to relax deeply and sleep soundly the night of your session.

What to Expect: Each person is unique, and will have an individual experience of energetic healing practices. For 48 hours after a session, be aware of more or less appetite and need for sleep, as well as any changes in emotional responses. Report anything noticeable at your next session.


If you have any reaction that concerns you, call me. (If you happen to be already coming down with a cold or flu, energy work is likely to exaggerate the symptoms. The release of blocked energy often speeds up the detoxification process. So you may feel worse for a day, followed by feeling much better.)

Because energy works speeds up the circulation, it might increase the effectiveness of medications. Consult your doctor if you suspect that doses may need adjusting after a period of regular energy sessions.

Communication: Peace of mind is an important component of healthy living. I am happy to answer short questions by phone without charge. Long or involved questions can be emailed to me. For an immediate concern, same day appointments for telephone consultations are usually available. These calls are billed in half hour increments. 510.339.7276
