Feeling burned out or discouraged in your career?

Coping with a nagging injury or illness?

Do you find the recommendations for mainstream society to stay well are not sufficient for you?

Are you wondering about transitioning to a new career?

I get it

You have chosen to be a perfomer.  That means you are talented, creative, resilient and tenacious.  But it also could mean you need a higher level of support to help you feel your best and stay well, so you can have a long and healthy career.

The majority of stressors faced by a performing artist on a regular basis including irregular employment, financial instability, and injuries that come with using your body to make your living taken individually can be too much for most people. 

As a former professional singer, dancer, and actress with over 10 years in the business, I get it.  One of my specialties is to help you work through and cope with those stressors, from a place of understanding and support.    

A few words on transitioning

If you are considering pursuing your other skills and talents, you are not alone.  Making a career transition after the commitment and resources you have put into your performing career is a big decision, and a process. 

With extensive experience in the process of making a career transition, both personally and professionally, I bring understanding and validation to each session as you exlore your options, abilities, and talents so you can create not only your work, but your life.
