Note: I am *only* speaking for myself here! Why is a reference asked for?
Because our time and money are valuable assets, I would love for us to be sure we seek a similar encounter. My ultimate goals are connection and expansion. If you've had a session with another provider, you're probably somewhat in touch with your own wants and needs (if she's really good, you'll know a lot more about yourself than you did before meeting her.). By checking in with a provider you've had a session with that all boundaries were respected, I believe both our goals will have a greater possibility of being met.
Because so many sweet people approach me with their hearts on their sleeve for a session without having experience, I'm trying out a new approach to reach the same goals through different paths.
HERE'S SOME OPTIONS (subject to change):
Schedule a Muse/Coaching session with me. $120/hour. We can connect in person and find the places we match up in our desires, interests and abilities. I am also quite a wealth of information, experience and resources, so if I am not "the one for you" I can often point you in several directions I believe will be fulfilling for you. This is exponentially increased the better I know you. This will be a talking and not a hands-on session.
You could also mail me with at least a short paragraph about what you are seeking, and/or why you are drawn to meeting me. I may ask for more info if I'm not sure we seek similar.
Or you could schedule a Chi Nei Tsang session. $120/hour. I am currently a student of this awesome modality of Chinese internal organ massage. You will be in your loose fitting shorts or pants.
Or another option is for you to keep my contact info handy for when you do have a reference to offer. This quick and painless process involves you offering up the website or online ad of a provider who has reviews posted, and who can vouch for your honorable behaviour in a session within the last year. She may need more details than your name and phone or email, such as something unique you discussed or other way to trigger her memory.
I will be processing prospective new clients twice weekly, Mondays & Thursdays between 10am-2pm on the days that I am in town and working.
Thanks for your interest. Be patient during this process, for once you're in, you're in 
I hope to synergize with you sometime soon.
Warm wishes, Holly
