Services are rendered based upon a 'sliding scale' fee.
 
Sliding scale means that you decide how much to pay within the range provided based upon your appreciation and your ability to pay.  For your session, there is a range that you can pay.

Why ''Sliding Scale''?

'Sliding Scale' means that you decide what amount to pay within the range that is offered.  Why?   
 
Some clients are in a position to compensate based upon the average rate for services of this high caliber.
Some clients  need this high caliber of service, yet are constrained financially by factors of health or life situation.
 
Consequently, I price my services so that it is in reach of more people.
