"Why can't people hear or see me for who I really am? The adult world is overwhelming, confusing and let's face it, kind of boring — I just want to find my own genuine way forward."
Creative and artistic professionals are talented in ways others are not, because they actually use their brains differently. You have known you are not typical your whole life but others just don’t seem to get it. No, you are not strange or broken, in fact, you are quite the opposite. It just might not feel like it. You may be a visual or kinesthetic learner, so you might have issues with spelling or you might never have been taught math in a way you could absorb it. You probably also have trouble staying fully focused or organized or calm in really tough situations. You may have been diagnosed with ADD, ADHD, or OCD as a child, or were never diagnosed but always knew you were neurodivergent in some way.
This is because you problem-solve with a different part of the brain. Once you understand how your unique brain works, those big feelings can be used for your craft, and you CAN also learn to regulate them when you need to. Adulting while overly emotional just doesn't work out very well. If you are reading this, you probably already know that. (Or you can just ask a family member, your ex, or your boss.)
During our sessions, whether you are a college student, a young adult professional just starting out, or a seasoned pro, we will fully explore and map out your thought process, your patterns that serve you well, and those that don't. We'll take a look visually at the problem-saturated story that is always running in your head, keeping you up at night, and what may be keeping you from healthy relationships, career success, prosperity, and the peaceful, calm, creative, and adventurous life that you desire.
Whether you enjoy living a creative life or are a professional visual or performance artist, art or creative director, designer, actor, writer, showrunner, photographer, musician, dancer, or architect, You have a gift. As a Hollywood native and Global Director of Art & Design for many years, I “get it’ in ways other mental health professionals may not. I speak your language and provide a safe, confidential spot for you to speak and be heard in my office in the heart of Hollywood (or online from the comfort of your own home)
