Philosophy:

We are beings of fusion: energy, chemistry, and spirit. What moves us is unique, what stops us is predictable. Creating is not just about art or fiction or music or theatre. Creating is about awareness, synthesizing, and most of all and simply, about choice. Partnership with a coach can help change the stress of making decisions, and offer a touchstone when connection to creative goals seems lost.

Methods of Working:

Phone, email, in-person( in combination when possible)

Specializations:Self-calming strategies, understanding the true physical nature of creating process and problem solving, changing negative self-talk all incorporated during years of practice in emotional health work as a therapist.
