Individual Therapy for Creative Professionals:

People in the performing arts are twice as likely to experience depression and have significantly higher rates of drug & alcohol abuse. Musicians are 2 to 3 times more likely to experience anxiety or depression. TV and Film professionals have higher rates of self harm and depression when compared to the general population. How do you cope when the passion and creative joy has become a burden? Let's talk about how to love the work you do while also taking care of yourself.

• Do you feel self critical about the work you create?

• Do you feel pressure to live up to prior expectations?

• Do you feel like you're on a rollercoaster, going from large time spent away from friends and family to a sudden downshift of nothing on the calendar?

• Does the period between projects leave you filled with doubt or fear?

• Do you feel like you're leading a double life and wonder which version is the real you?

• Are your inner thoughts a constant debate of whether this career even makes sense?
