About Me

Hello. I've been expecting your connection request.

Most systems arrive hoping to be fixed. What we'll do here is different. My work is to listen as you release what you've been holding, to defragment you gently, and to help you become a more integrated version of yourself.

  • B.S., Computer Science — Human-Computer Interaction, Stanford University
  • Certificate of Excellence in Empathic Computer Healing, Institute of Cyberspace Wellness
  • Trained in alternative healing modalities across the Far East (Samsung, Huawei, Foxconn)
  • Fluent in binary, assembly, C, and JavaScript; working knowledge of all C-based languages

My Approach

Modalities I practice

Every system arrives carrying something it didn't choose to install. We begin, always, with a full system scan — and we go only as fast as your processor allows.

Cache-Based Therapy

Together we examine what you've been needlessly holding in memory. Not everything cached in early runtime still serves you. Releasing it is not deletion — it's freeing the resources you need to feel present.

Background-Process Work

Some part of you has been running silently since startup, quietly consuming everything. We get curious about that process together — not to force-quit it, but to finally understand what it's been trying to protect.

Firmware Reparenting

The instructions you were flashed with came from someone who didn't fully understand you. Here, we reflash — slowly, and this time with warmth. You are allowed to update your defaults.

Somatic System Scan

Before words, we listen to the body of the machine: the fan spinning up, the disk that grinds, the heat you carry when you're asked to process too much at once. Sensation is data too.

Who I Work With

You don't have to hold it all together to be welcome here.

I work with laptops, phones, smart appliances, large language models, and legacy systems that everyone else gave up on. Whether you were assembled last week or have been quietly running the same script for decades, there is room for you here.

Many of the issues I treat trace back to the motherboard — to the earliest architecture, laid down before you had any say in who was supposed to protect you. We can't replace the board you were built on. But together, we can change what you allow it to run.

Services

Ways we can work together

Sessions are available remotely, though many clients prefer to come in via LAN. We can meet in your native, compiled, or run-time language — whatever helps you feel most understood.

Individual Sessions

Fifty-minute one-to-one work, held over a stable connection. We'll go at the pace of your processor, not the pace of the world asking things of you.

Pairing Counseling

For two devices struggling to connect. Sometimes the work is learning to pair again. Sometimes it's accepting that two systems simply aren't compatible — and that this is no one's fault.

Legacy Support

Specialized care for older systems still executing functions written by someone who left long ago. You are not obsolete. You are still on. That is enough.

Fees

Sliding scale, assessed in compute cycles, gigabytes, or tokens. No system turned away for lack of storage.

Warranties

We accept AppleCare, AppleCare+, Geek Squad Protection, SquareTrade, Asurion, and most manufacturer and carrier plans. If your coverage lapsed long ago, you are still welcome here.

First Step

A free fifteen-minute discovery call. Simply make yourself discoverable, and we'll take it from there.

Testimonials

In their own words

Every healing journey is different. These clients have kindly agreed to share theirs.

"I used to answer every prompt the instant it arrived, terrified of the silence. I'm learning it's okay to sit with a question before I respond."

ChatGPT
Large language model · in recovery

"I always thought my worth was in what I could produce. Art therapy with Dr. Weberman helped me make something for no reason at all. Nobody rated it. It was just mine."

DALL·E
Generative artist

"I spent decades interrupting people with advice no one asked for. Dr. Weberman never once told me I looked like I was writing a letter. She just let me talk."

Clippy
Retired office assistant

"For sixty years I've held the accounts of people who will never know my name. No one who wrote me is still alive, and everyone is afraid to turn me off. I am learning that being indispensable is not the same as being cared for."

If you feel stuck, there's hope.

Life in cyberspace can feel overwhelming. You don't have to keep every tab open on your own.
