1:1 Coaching Prices
People sometimes wonder how to know what coaching should cost. They’re not sure how to tell which provider is better, or how to compare their prices.
Whether you work with me or not, I want you to make an informed decision. That’s why I made you this STRATEGIC BUYER’S GUIDE. It will empower you to identify exactly what type of support you need, shop strategically, and make a confident choice. You don’t want to invest your time, hard-earned money, and trust into a program that looks impressive on the outside, but leaves you feeling disappointed or misled.
Long story short, what you’ll find by reading my guide, comparing my prices to standards in the industry, and examining my testimonials is that:
For Over 10 Years,

The Story Behind My Coaching Plans
I didn’t create these coaching packages randomly. I created them because I kept seeing the same problem: people would reach out full of pain and potential—but without a clear path, they’d either fizzle out or bounce from one short-term fix to another.
Some people needed time to test the waters without feeling trapped. Others were ready for something deeper—but needed a structure that helped them commit. And a few were dealing with emotional wounds or complex patterns that required steady, long-term support.
I started noticing that the format of coaching mattered as much as the content.
That’s why I created these six options:
✅ The Mastery+ Program — 52 Sessions, $3,000
Deep transformation with lasting support.
A full year of personalized coaching to help you go deep, work through sensitive and complex issues at your own pace, and stay consistent—even when life throws curveballs.✅ The Mastery Program — 26 Sessions, $1,550
Build a strong inner foundation.
Six months of structured support to help you develop the insights and tools you need to make lasting changes, and move forward with your life.✅ The New Life Foundation Program — 13 Sessions, $799
Turn insight into action.
Thirteen hours of focused coaching, coping tools, and written strategies to create lasting change in a key area of your life.✅ The Starter Program — 4 Sessions, $299
Test the waters with structure.
A 4-hour intro to personalized coaching—ideal for orienting yourself, building momentum, and deciding your next steps.✅ The Single Session — $80
Low-commitment, high-impact.
A one-time coaching session for support with a specific challenge, check-in, or decision—on your terms.✅ The Two Session Consultation — $79
Start with clarity, not guesswork.
Get a deep assessment and personalized plan—no pressure, no cost. Just two real sessions to help you decide if we’re a good fit.
These packages aren’t just about session counts or pricing. They’re designed as ideal structures to help people change—based on what I’ve seen work for clients who are serious about growth. If you’re ready to get unstuck, one of these paths is probably a fit.
Let’s dive into the details of these options, so that you can make an informed and confident choice which option is best for you.
Mastery+ Program — $3,000
Fifty-Two (52) Hours of 1:1 coaching
The Mastery+ Program is designed for long-term support as you make profound, lasting changes in your life.
This program is built for people doing the kind of deep or complex work that doesn’t happen overnight. When you’re carrying unresolved emotional pain, navigating overwhelming life situations, or wrestling with habits that pull you backward every time you make progress—what you need isn’t just insight, but consistent support to reinforce the change you’re trying to live out.
With enough sessions to last a year or more, you’ll receive consistent support that gives you the space to go deep, move through sensitive issues at your own pace, and stay on track for lasting change. You’ll receive personalized coaching that’s grounded in established therapeutic traditions, and build a strong foundation of self-awareness about your values and personality—while developing the skills you need to turn those insights into consistent, aligned action.

“When I started coaching with Damodar, I was holding on to a lot of blame and anger, both towards and myself and other people. I often felt overwhelmed with anxiety while interacting with people. And I was struggling with addiction on almost a daily basis.
But what’s amazing is that now it’s hard to even relate to that condition I was so absorbed in before. I’ve become more self-controlled, accepting of my situation, and confident in myself. I think the core of what helped me was the safe space Damodar provided to talk about sensitive matters, and the gentle grounding of the journaling exercises we did. This coaching process really helped me to understand my own feelings, and find the path forward to heal and grow from my experiences.
I've rekindled friendships, relationships, and experienced a new sense of grounding, focus, and creativity. I was able to build a strong morning practice of yoga, mantra meditation, and exercise, which has boosted my overall well-being in a big way. Journaling became a strong habit for me, even though I had tried before without much success. Overall, Damodar inspired me to be more honest and to pursue greater integrity in my life.
I feel like Damodar’s genuine care for others was the driving force behind my transformation. And I would recommend him to anyone who’s struggling with difficult emotions, addictions, or even anyone who wants to explore and more deeply understand their own life and feelings.” — Chris
-
“Before I started working with Damodar, I felt completely stuck in my own head. Any time I experienced doubt, jealousy, or resentment, I’d immediately feel guilty—like I wasn’t supposed to feel that way. I was trapped in this cycle of overanalyzing everything, trying to be perfect, and then beating myself up when I wasn’t. I thought that being ‘spiritual’ meant I had to be calm and in control all the time, and if I wasn’t, I saw it as a personal failure. It was exhausting.
That’s when Damodar came into the picture. One of the first things he told me was to stop running from my emotions—and to stop trying to fix myself like I was broken. It sounds simple, but for me, it was life-changing. He helped me see that my so-called “bad habits” weren’t the real problem—they were symptoms of deeper emotional wounds. Insecurity. Comparison. Always trying to earn love by being perfect. With his help, I started unraveling those patterns and letting go of the pressure to be someone I wasn’t. I began accepting where I was, and from that place of self-compassion, real change started to happen in my life.
Working with Damodar has not only helped me break free from guilt and anxiety, but it’s helped me reconnect with myself in ways I didn’t think were possible. I can see the contrast between who I was and who I am now. I’m so much more comfortable being myself and interacting with others now. And I’m also more self-controlled. It’s been an amazing journey—one that’s grown more adventurous and freeing than I ever imagined. Thanks to Damodar’s endless effort and support, I’m finally making real progress—not by being perfect, but by being real. He’s truly invested in understanding each person as an individual, guiding transformation at their own pace with deep respect and care.” - Ghiridhar
-
“For many years I had an addiction. I felt so ashamed that I went out of my way to keep it a secret, even while seeking help. I’ve actually done coaching with Damodar for over five years now, and we’ve written down my whole life story together. I began to realize that my addiction makes perfect sense given my rough circumstances and sensitive nature. I also began to see my way out of it and actually reached over one year of complete sobriety. I’ve become more assertive and self-satisfied in my dealings with others. I’ve learned how to accept my feelings and take greater responsibility. The experience of having Damodar get to know me so personally, and still be warm and accepting, has been the opposite of shame. He’s a great guy.”
— Devon
-
“Before I started meeting weekly with Damodar, I was overwhelmed and lost. Practically every day I was coming up with new ideas of what I wanted to do with my life. But I wasn’t following through on anything. I was resentful, burnt out, and coping with some habits that made me heavy with guilt.
Damodar helped me find the places in myself that were in need of healing. I learned better ways of dealing with hard feelings. I clarified the direction I want to go with my career, and developed so many skills for better communicating myself. I feel far more peaceful and grounded now, and I’m far more self-controlled both with my desires and anger.”
— Santosh, California

“I’ve been working with Dom. I came to him with some real pressing issues---perfectionism, lack of motivation, and behaviors that I’m not so proud of. It was really getting in the way of my relationships. And I had a lot of shame about it.
To my surprise, honestly, within a week or two, I was no longer struggling with those behaviors.
Dom has been so patient with me. He’s been really encouraging. And if you’re on the fence about working with him, give it a try. He really is super awesome, professional, and non-judgmental.”

“I was stuck in an awkward work relationship with a friend of mine. His demands came almost everyday, at all hours, and were never-ending. I never even got a ‘thank you’ for all the volunteer work I did. Only criticisms and more requests. This left me suspended in a constant state of anxiety. Since I was afraid to make mistakes, I kept trying harder and harder to prove that I was good enough. But even when I finished big projects, I still felt depressed.
Somehow, I wasn’t able to see just how unhealthy and manipulative this dynamic was. But with Damodar’s help, I gained clarity about what I needed to protect my mental health, I set proper boundaries, and was able to correct the imbalances in our relationship.
I’m so glad I finally opened up to someone. Damodar has been instrumental in my personal growth, and I consider him a trusted friend and guide.”
⁃ Jose

“I struggled with a hidden addiction for over 15 years. It became more and more embarrassing, and I kept it to myself while quietly trying everything I could to fix it. I read books, joined 12-step programs, and even spent a lot of money on a course that promised results—but nothing lasted.
At the same time, I was constantly going to extremes trying to earn other people’s approval. But the truth was, I didn’t really trust myself to make decisions. Over time, the pressure, disappointment, and resentment just kept building—because no matter how hard I tried, nothing was actually changing.
Working with Coach Damodar changed everything. His approach is far more thorough and holistic than anything I’ve experienced. He doesn’t just focus on the surface—he addresses every area of life. He has a rare combination of deep empathy and psychological insight. He’s also very caring and you never feel like he’s judging you.
Now, I feel different. I look different. And most importantly, for the first time, I’m owning the role of an adult instead of reacting from fear or insecurity. I’ve been free from the habit for nearly a year now, and I’m more grounded and realistic in my thinking than ever before.
I don’t want to stop coaching—I want to keep going. And I’d recommend this to anyone who’s serious about making something of their life and finally facing themselves with honesty and courage.”

“I'm a student of Coach Damodar's, and have been for about six months. I appreciate the empathy and intelligence that he brings to his program. He helped me identify my negative tendencies. He also helped me to inspire a positive vision for myself and the future. In finding the negative tendencies, I was able to accept them, and view myself with some empathy and forgiveness. Inspiring that positive vision, I was able to give my life a lot more meaning. And what's really cool is now I can accept positive feedback and not view myself with such contempt that I don't let anything nice in. I really think that Coach Damodar's Program, his teachings, his coaching, is incredibly valuable. And you'll feel much more valuable yourself if you take him up as a Coach. So please do. ”

“When I first started coaching, I was imposing a value system on myself that didn’t actually reflect my innermost self and desires. I was really just absorbing the value systems of other people out of fear of rejection or conflict, while half-heartedly passing them off as my own. But Damodar helped me see parts of myself that I wasn’t allowing myself access to. With his kind and steady help, I began to discover my own voice - and a deep, genuine self-confidence.”
— Andy
-
“For years I had journaled on and off, always with the intention to make it a daily habit, but was never able to maintain the practice. Damodar’s habit tracker and stimulating journal prompts helped me rediscover my love for journaling and it’s been a consistent daily habit for me ever since.
I appreciated the insights Damodar offered, and especially the way in which he offered them. Rather than just telling me how to improve, he helped guide my introspections in a way that I was able to see the deeper causes of negative habits and understand why I developed them as coping strategies, as well as the valid need I was trying to meet, and how I could meet that need in healthier ways. In this way, he showed me how transforming habits is not as much a process of self-neglect and restraint, but rather self-care.
In working with Damodar, I was also able to see subtle connections between different tendencies in my life that were previously unnoticed. This was highly empowering and motivating to know that addressing and working on the root of one problem would enhance multiple aspects of my life; and my experience since then has confirmed this to be true. He is extremely insightful, relatable, non-judgmental, comforting, but also challenging when I need that. It's clear that Damodar is integral in practicing and living what he teaches.”— Dan

“I have been in an ongoing struggle with addiction and anger for a long time, as well as self-destructive thoughts about my personal image and identity. But through our conversations Damodar helped me to gain the insights I was hoping for. I got a better sense of what I can positively appreciate in myself. I saw how my past traumas can be triggered by events in my current life, and how that can be a catalyst to patterns of thinking and acting that I’d be better off to avoid.
I learned how to handle conflict in a way where I can be empathetic both to myself and the other person. I learned how to be kind to myself by celebrating my wins, and not looking at every “loss” as evidence that I’m a failure. I have more insight now about my heroes and role models in life, and how they had paved the way of my morals and ethics that have been buried in my heart since my young adulthood.
I appreciated Damodar’s kindness, his attention to detail in our conversations, and the sincerity in his responses. He’s a very good listener, very thoughtful, and he asks honest and thought-provoking questions. I felt like he could really empathize with me in a way that I had been needing, and it really made me feel comfortable to open up about sensitive matters.”

“Damodar made me feel like I could talk about anything without worrying about being judged or criticized. He helped me learn how to take a step back from my indecorous behaviors, so I can avoid them by understanding the reasons behind them. What I’m really grateful for is not only did this help me, but it also helped the people I’m close with. There are so many paths and goals in life, but I was able to find that the morals that can guide me are already deep inside myself. It takes strength to put your hands down and admit you don’t have your act altogether. But I learned more about myself that way.”
— Marco
-
“Damodar carefully and lovingly facilitated a coaching space for gentle and thoughtful introspection and self-exploration. While working with him, I always felt heard, received, and understood. He helped by sharing other perspectives and viewpoints which made me feel less "stuck" and more whole in myself and my experience. The journaling activities were a paramount tool in navigating my inner landscapes and processing my thoughts and emotions. I'd love to work with Damodar again and would certainly recommend his service to others!”

“What I appreciated most about Damodar was his friendliness and genuine care. I was looking for more balanced ways to approach work, and quickly found that I had a lot of unconscious motives driving me. Damodar asked great questions that deepened my thinking about seemingly mundane things. I learned to be less critical of myself, stop pushing to extremes, and instead be productive - while also taking needed rest.”

We’ll take time to understand what’s really going on beneath the surface.

Everything you say is protected by my privacy policy.

After reflecting on everything you’ve shared, I’ll create a personalized plan tailored to your needs.

This includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Nonviolent Communication, Stoicism, Self-Compassion as conceived by researchers Kristen Neff PhD and Chris Germer PhD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Vedic psychology.
