Film Set Therapy
Film and television sets are emotionally demanding places at the best of times.
When the material involves trauma, grief, abuse, or survival — and when the people being asked to open up are left to carry that alone once the cameras stop — the cost is real, and it falls on individuals.
I offer confidential therapy for cast, crew, and contributors on film and documentary productions. I am not part of the production team. I don't report to the director or the producer. My only job is to care for the people doing the work.
I come to this from both sides. As a documentary filmmaker, I sat with people as they revisited some of the hardest experiences of their lives. I know what it costs to tell a story honestly, and what it costs to witness one. That creative and clinical fluency is what I bring to set.
What this looks like:
On-set and on-call individual sessions: confidential support for cast, crew, and contributors throughout production
Pre-production planning: identifying where vulnerable material may surface and putting care in place before filming begins
Aftercare: individual support once the cameras are off and the adrenaline drops
Script and casting consultation: a psychological lens on material involving trauma, intimacy, or vulnerable subjects
I also offer custom designed packages for the needs of each production.
Standard session: 50 mins | $200
