Your Alpha Effect experience begins with a listening evaluation and intake session.
The program includes 20 – 40 sessions delivered in three phases. Each phase contains 10 to 15 sessions of 1.5 to 2 hours each. A two to three week break and integration period follows each phase.
The program is delivered in our studio or your classroom, office or other appropriate location.
