Integrative, innovative support
for the performing artist
YOU’RE HERE BECAUSE YOU CARE.
ABOUT YOUR ART.
ABOUT YOUR PERFORMANCE.
ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.
Here’s the thing…
It can be difficult to show up authentically in your performances, and in your life.
Your inner critic tells you you’re not good enough. Fear prevents you from being vulnerable.
Not to mention the creative blocks…
Whether it’s anxiety, a sense of unworthiness, past trauma, or other issues holding you back —
You are in the right place.
Hi, I’m Stephanie
A trauma-informed, integrative therapist for performers, creatives, artists, and bold visionaries.
I offer no-BS support for individuals who want to take their art and their lives to the next level.
This isn’t a ‘think positive’ kind of place. This is a space where you can come as your whole messy self - with zero judgment from me - so you can work through all the stuff holding you back, and gain agency over your life.
It’s not about quelling the fears and “getting on with the show” - it’s about owning who you are and making genuine connections with yourself and your audience.
Because no one ever got a standing ovation for just hitting all the right notes, did they?
"ANYTHING YOU DO, LET IT COME FROM YOU.
THEN IT WILL BE NEW.
GIVE US MORE TO SEE…”
- Stephen Sondheim, Sunday in The Park With George
My Method
AN ECLECTIC APPROACH
Through a humanistic, client-centered lens, I employ a variety of modalities - Music Therapy, CBT, Gestalt, IFS, EMDR, Compassionate Inquiry, Somatic Experiencing, Mindfulness, and others - though I consider The Bonny Method of GIM to be my “secret weapon.”
I CAN HELP YOU:
– Reduce anxiety and manage stress
– Transform maladaptive thoughts and behaviors
– Befriend and disarm the inner critic
– Stimulate and enhance creativity
– Process and heal grief/trauma/toxic shame
– Connect with your intuitive wisdom
– Unlock mental, emotional, and creative blocks
HOW I SUPPORT YOU
I view therapy as a collaborative process. I am here to hold space for you in a non-judgmental and compassionate way, offer new ideas and perspectives, and support you in your journey towards wholeness. Everybody’s path is different, no cookie-cutter approach here!
What My Clients Are Saying
“GIM is so amazing!”
It’s impossible to describe how deeply it has transformed me. It has literally changed me from the inside out. You just have to try the process to get it.
-J.C.
“I can show up as the WHOLE me”
What I love most about Stephanie is that she’s so REAL. I know I can say anything and I will not be judged, she will listen with a sympathetic ear and help me navigate through it all.”
-C.T.
“My performances are more grounded”
Stephanie helped me find the real me inside, and now, I know who I am when I enter the audition room. I feel like I am functioning on a completely different level than I had before.
