Creativity and Relaxation Coaching: Sostenuto Starter Package
1 month commitment
I designed this starter package with the hope to meet the needs of people like myself who thrive with structure but struggle to establish it for themselves and would benefit from consistent support.
Sostenuto Starter Package includes:
*4 weeks of trauma-informed self-care coaching and support in developing sustainable self-care routine based on your goals, obstacles, and resources
*60 minute starting session to create goals and establish safety in the coaching relationship
*60 minutes per week of support via phone, video, or text, scheduled however it makes sense for you. (For example: 20 min 3x per week, or 30 min and 10 min 3x per week)
Additional perks:
*customized resources related to self-care, creativity, and mental health
*encouragement and support in finding/engaging in other wellness or community services such as therapy/psychiatry, career support, substance use support, childcare, etc.

My approach:
I believe in strengths-based care and using art as a form of harm reduction. I am influenced by my own journey of trauma and healing as well as my graduate level training in music therapy and counseling.
I borrow ideas from methods like Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I prioritize collaboration with clients in deciding the flow of sessions.
I am fat-positive, sex-positive and unapologetically supportive of night-life and sex workers, trans and gender expansive people, substance users, as well as people in nontraditional relationships.
I do not to use any practices that are not open to me as a White person, but am happy to support anyone in bringing in your own cultural or spiritual practices to the session.
Disclaimers:
I am not a music therapist and not providing therapy. I am not able to help anyone in current mental health crisis beyond providing other resources.
I am protective of my boundaries to prevent burnout and vicarious trauma; therefore, within the coaching relationship I cannot provide in-depth processing of traumatic experiences. I will state directly if I need to draw a boundary based on the direction of our work together.
