So what is the full story? The practitioner may have a very different version of events. From the practitioner's point of view, you are a client who has used her services and is now refusing to pay.

What was actually agreed between you regarding services and costs?

What was promised but not provided?

The practitioner did apparently do some distance consultations - did you pay her anything for her time and energy? If it really was just a phone call and filing then $120 seems a bit steep, but how much time was actually spent in consultation?

It may be that she has genuinely failed to provide a service, in which case you are right not to pay. At the same time, there are plenty of people out there who are happy to see health practitioners or therapists but not so happy to hand over any money in exchange.

We have probably all seen health practitioners who have been less than effective, but we have still paid - we just don't go back for further treatment. The fact that this is a distance consultation makes it easier not to pay. Rather than resorting to the police or lawyers or anonymous discrediting on social media, maybe reflect on whether you might owe her something for her time.

If you are genuinely in the right and she is harassing you for money which she does not deserve then you can always try ho'oponopono. You have created the circumstances which have brought her into your life, so focus on complete forgiveness on both sides.

Just some thoughts.

Peace.
