TELEVISION CONSULTANT/COUNSELING
Having previously worked as a producer in the Television Industry for over 20 years, I understand the complexities,
stress and issues that confront many actors, directors, producers, and crew members. I provide individual
consulting and workshops in:
CONFLICT RESOLUTION
                                                   STRESS MANAGEMENT
                                                   TEAM BUILDING
                                                   COMMUNICATION SKILLS
                                                   STRESS FROM DOWN SIZING
                                                   PERSONALITY ISSUES
                                                   SUBSTANCE ABUSE
I travel to the set to conduct workshops or to counsel and mediate any problems, everything is handled with strict
confidentiality.  My experience with "various" personalities during my  years in production makes me proficient with
understanding the special treatment and attention it often takes to work with difficult individuals that may be
creating tension on the set or  within the TV production company. I will go to an actors home since many do not
want to be seen entering a therapist office. I offer both consulting and therapy depending on individual needs.

CONTESTANT ASSESSMENTS:
I offer assessments and debriefing assessment for contestants on television talk and reality shows. Often stress
and emotional "breakdowns" occur with individuals that are not accustomed to the pressures of TV production,
media scrutiny, and rejection. Production companies are hiring psychotherapists to assess individuals/contestants
that may not be able to emotionally handle the pressures associated with TV reality/talk shows. This is a safe
guard for both the individual and the production company. Precautions and professional input will ultimately save
the television production company and/or Network money from any  time or disputes that may arise in the
production of the show.
