Why $80 works
The same quality. A fraction of the price.
The average US session costs $250, so most people go once and quietly stop. Our professionals are registered through South African credentialing bodies, some of the most rigorous in the English-speaking world, with years of supervised practice and active caseloads. The geography changes the price. The quality stays where it needs to be. At $80, you can come back next week, and the week after. That consistency is where progress happens.
Sessions are $80. Less with a package.
