Block
Have any of these issues hindered your creative
success, personal relationships or daily functioning? If so, it’s
natural to self-judge, which can leave you feeling alienated, unproductive
and conflicted.
With 25 years in the field of arts and knowledge of the creative
personality, I understand the unique qualities and struggles of
the artist. It’s common for artists to avoid therapy for fear
it might rob them of their creative drive. However, by honoring
your need to preserve who you are as an artist, I can help you achieve
a more balanced inner and out life, without squelching your creative
energy.
I believe within you lies an innate and powerful motivation
to move towards personal growth. I can assist you in learning
how to better integrate conflicting traits and emotions,
which often lead to self-blame, judgment and procrastination. By
learning to embrace all aspects of the creative personality,
we move towards self-acceptance and compassion for your self as
an artist. We will explore those dynamics keeping you stuck as well
as strengthen those that are working.
It takes courage to share your struggles with another. The art of
therapy is providing a safe environment to take gradual and courageous
steps towards personal growth. I offer a nurturing and non-judgmental
approach to helping you take those steps safely and confidently,
assisting you on the path towards reaching your creative potential
and creating the life you desire.
