Mental Health Consultant to Theatrical Productions

If you are a Producer or General Manager of a Broadway or off-Broadway show, you need access to a trusted mental health professional who understands your business. As a licensed clinician and theatre professional who has worked on both sides of the footlights, I bring decades of experience in the theatre to my work as a psychotherapist. The stakes are high in the theatre, and the show must go on. But when times are challenging, a company’s resilience is tested. Pre-existing mental health issues are exacerbated by trauma, loss, anxiety, and world events. It is essential that issues affecting mental health are addressed appropriately to avoid their impact on backstage life and performance. Please add Broadway Mental Health Services to your list of professionals who will keep your show healthy and minimize risk.

Services

Available for on-site visits, telehealth consultations, and crisis management. Please contact me to discuss a plan that suits your needs and your budget.

Whether your company is upended by a traumatic event, or experiencing ongoing issues that impact performance, I will address individual and group mental health needs, stabilize your cast, and help protect your bottom line.
