Hi Robert, I usually talk with people on the phone for a free 20-30 minute consultation. During that discussion, I get a sense of what the person might need and suggest what the appropriate next steps could be. People get a good sense of whether I can help them during that talk. If your partner and I feel it's a good match, then I can give her a sense of what it might take in terms of time, homework, etc. to find a job. It's hard to know what she'll need until I talk with her. Some people need a place to talk and find equilibrium and confidence over the course of a few weeks and then we get down to strategy/networking etc. This process, depending on the person, can take a couple of sessions or several. Again, I'll know better once she and I can talk. Hope this helps. I suggest we start with a phone call. I have time this Friday or Monday at 9am to talk with her. In terms of billing, after this initial, free talk, you'd be able to pay for sessions online using a credit card. Please let me know if you have more questions. Best, Lisa
