Psychotherapy For Artists
The perception of contemporary American culture towards artists is paradoxical. Oftentimes artists are either denigrated as eccentrics or revered as visionaries in the eyes of society. This confusing dynamic often causes internalized feelings of shame that can be corrosive to the creative process of living.
I have experience both professionally and therapeutically working in the visual, literary and musical arts and understand how artists can sometimes have access to a wide array of emotional states. This increased consciousness can act as the source of inspiration and creative instinct, yet can also contribute to isolation from others and difficulty in making satisfying contact.
Psychotherapy can be an effective way for artists to work through blocks while exploring an ongoing process of development. In this work we create a relationship with each other, and with that as our foundational ground, we explore the processes that both promote and inhibit creativity. With new insight one can create a more healthful creative workflow that addresses needs for nourishment and professional development.
