My practice has 2 distinct areas of concentration:

Muse In Action: Coaching for Creative Professionals  is aimed at "helping right-brained thinkers create their rightful place in a left brained world" I draw on my expertise as a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and my Coaching training  with Mentorcoach to partner with clients to pursue their true passion by developing a realistic attainable plan of action, providing support & step by step strategies until the goal is reached. I can also provide virtual groups via teleconference to coach clients with similar goals. My work is positive and success oriented.

My approach to treatment is holistic and client centered and focused on client strengths with an emphasis on mind body  techniques.

Welcome!

Are you looking for a place where you can talk freely and confidentially about something that is bothering you? Where you can get help understanding distressing feelings and difficult situations that result from past, present, or anticipated future events? Or where you and your partner can learn to resolve conflict and communicate better to create a deeper and more meaningful relationship? You are in the right place and I would welcome the opportunity to work with you.

I collaborate with clients to explore their concerns and struggles, build on their strengths, develop their inner resources, identify and achieve goals, and deal with unresolved issues from the past. It is important to me to establish a safe and supportive environment in which healing can occur. I work particularily well with individuals who have a deep commitment to self-awareness, personal growth, and healing. I take a holistic approach and am especially interested in therapy that integrates spiritual principles, psychological insight, and the wisdom of the body with a focus on empowering individuals.

To achieve a more holistic approach I work collaboratively with other practitioners such as psychiatrists, nutritionists, naturopaths, body workers, energy healers and others in healing arts.
