Creatives Welcome!
Counseling for Creatives – Support for the Artistic Mind
Is your creativity both your superpower and your struggle?
Artists, writers, musicians, performers, makers—you have a unique way of experiencing the world. Creativity is your greatest strength, but let's be honest, it can also be incredibly challenging. The highs of inspiration and the lows of self-doubt, anxiety, and burnout are real.
Maybe you recognize yourself here:
Intense emotional ups and downs related to your work or identity as an artist.
Overthinking or anxiety around your creative choices, criticism, or public perception.
Feeling misunderstood or out of sync with mainstream society because of your unique perspectives or unconventional lifestyle.
Struggling with perfectionism or procrastination that stalls your projects.
Navigating relationships that don't fully "get" your artistic drive or creative quirks.
If this sounds familiar, welcome—you've found the right place.
Why Counseling Tailored for Creatives?
Therapy with me isn't just a place to vent. It's a safe, supportive space specifically designed for artists and creatives like you. Here's how I help:
Embracing your unique neurodivergence: Many creatives are neurodivergent (ADHD, Autism, Highly Sensitive Person) or simply experience life intensely. We'll explore strategies that harness your unique brain style rather than suppressing it.
Tackling anxiety and creative blocks: Whether it's writer's block, performance anxiety, imposter syndrome, or perfectionism, I'll work with you to find practical techniques that move you forward.
Creative identity support: We'll explore your identity as an artist—separate from your productivity, public success, or failures—to help build lasting self-worth beyond your latest masterpiece.
Relationship navigation: Understand and manage relationships better, especially if your creative passion or non-traditional lifestyle sometimes feels isolating.
A Therapist Who "Gets It"
As a counselor who's proudly geeky and a bit creatively quirky myself, I deeply understand the creative journey. My office (virtual or otherwise) isn't a clinical box—it's a sanctuary where your artistic spirit is celebrated. Share your stories, inspirations, frustrations, and ambitions freely. Bring your sketches, your poetry, your playlists—I want to understand your world, so we can build authentic strategies tailored just for you.
