Appointment Location

We look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful home office. Please read the information below thoroughly to ensure a smooth experience before, during, and after your session.

Considerations

parking

Parking in Polish Hill is difficult. To help alleviate some of this pressure, you are welcome to parallel park on our concrete parking pad, or use our parking space (to the left of the house) when available. Our street is very narrow, so please make sure all four tires are over the drainage ditch when using this parking spot and use caution when parking and exiting. If you prefer, you can park near the intersection of Melwood Ave and Finland St, then walk down Finland to us (we are at the corner of Finland and Flavian). Some people find this easier than negotiating our narrow street. Please do not park in the gravel parking spaces on Flavian, or in the street parking spaces opposite our house and opposite our next door neighbors’ house. Parking is extremely limited, and we respect these as our neighbors’ parking spaces. 

Another option is to avoid parking altogether, and take a ride share (Lyft, Uber) or the bus. We are accessible by bus via the 54 or the East Busway Herron Ave stop. Please be advised, we are a few minute’s walk with steep hills from either bus stop.

Punctuality

Please plan to arrive as close to your appointment time as possible. If you will be arriving more than five minutes early, there may not be parking available for you and I may not be able to open the door for you. If you do happen to arrive early, you can park farther away and relax in your vehicle, or explore the neighborhood and visit Kaibur Coffee, Doomed Planet Comics, or Pleasant Dreams Records on Dobson St. If you will be arriving more than 10 minutes late, please respect that I may need to cut your session short to be ready to receive my next client.

accessibility

My house is not wheelchair accessible, and may be difficult to negotiate for people who have severely impaired movement. Transportation issues may also be a concern. We have cats and dogs. Please plan ahead if you have allergies. If you would like to work with me but have accessibility concerns, please contact me directly to inquire about scheduling a house call. If a house call is not possible, I will be happy to provide a referral to a colleague who has a more accessible space.
