Frequently Asked Questions...

Do you do commissions?

Yes! I love collaborating on ideas and bringing the vision to life!

The process looks like this:

Go to the contact page-fill out the form and let me know in your greatest detail, what you have in mind.

I will get back to you ASAP with any thoughts I have, time frames and general price concepts. We will have a discussion until final details are settled on, as each commission is different and unique.

If you decide to move forward from there-I draw up a contract, we both sign, I ask for half of the quoted price up front, and I get to work!

You can choose to get updated along the way-or completely surprised at the end.

If you are unhappy after I have finished the piece, and we can't come to a settlement of fixing it, I keep the first half and the piece itself, and the contract is cancelled.

What is your skill/experience in mental health?

I have 2 years professional experience as a counselor in an inpatient psych unit,

and 15+ years personal experience in mental health.

The professional came after the personal of course...

I used my personal experience to get a job on the professional side-and I unfortunately found a broken system that was much worse than I had thought when I was a patient seeking help...

I have spent 15+ years working through personal trauma and abuse, after all that time of working through 'the system' of mental healthcare in the United States-Massachusetts to be specific...I honestly found so much healing outside of any provider office.

I feel my personal experiences are more valuable than any schooling. Though I certainly don't look down on education.

I do not have a degree or a license at this point-maybe some day. But I never felt I needed it to help others improve their lives.

Do you offer counseling?

I do not offer charged counseling services at this time.

I do, however-have a wide open inbox and a free listening ear if you need to talk to a friend. I am always happy to chat.
