About Me
I’m an acting coach, and trainee psychotherapist with over twenty years of experience in theatre and film. I’ve been teaching the Meisner Technique for 18 years.
I have worked with many actors, writers and directors, always engaged in the pursuit for truthfulness and authenticity. My process has developed into a therapeutic offering too. There are many links between actor training and psychotherapy. I now offer both options to actors and non-actors alike.
“Awareness requires living in the here and now, and not in the elsewhere, the past or the future.” Eric Berne
Great sensitivity is required to engage our emotional muscles,. We also need a safe trusting environment. I provide these, whilst also encouraging my clients to be curious of what lies beyond their comfort zones. But it’s not all hard work. I promise, it does pay off once you’ve put in the time.
“Acting is fun…Don’t let that get around!” Sanford Meisner
