I work with creatives & entrepreneurs struggling with ADHD, depression, anxiety, OCD, career transitions, overwhelm, & chronic illness. You may be just beginning or building your career, or perhaps considering a complete career shift, but struggle with self-doubt and indecision. Regardless of where you are, the future unknowns can be unsettling. Bravely following your vision while supporting yourself & others can be equal parts exhilarating & challenging. I specialize in working with individuals in arts + entertainment, tech, music, film/TV, theater, AI, dance, design, gaming, poetry, screenwriting, fine arts, production, and more!

As a former artist & producer manager, I've had the honor of guiding musicians, producers, writers, + many other creatives through self-employment challenges. I understand the tenacity it takes to thrive as an entrepreneur. We'll work collaboratively to investigate, process, and deconstruct the complexities of your life in a solution-focused way.

My approach is engaging, client-centered ,empathetic, and goal-orientated. Together, we'll discuss the outcomes you desire for your life in order to develop and implement systems that utilize practical, structured steps and actions to regain your voice and vision, as well as a sense of self-worth, calm, and freedom while trusting yourself and the unknowns.
