Writing Coaching for Therapists

You talk with clients all day long, but might have difficulty putting your own words to paper or screen. Maybe you have a vision for what you want to write but don’t know where to start. Or you don’t have a vision yet, just a knowing or niggling sense that there’s something you want to put out into the world. You have loads of training and experience as a therapist, and you find yourself wishing you had someone like you to guide you as a writer.

I support therapists with a range of writing projects:

• Applications

• Conference proposals

• Articles

• Blog posts

• Newsletters

• Book chapters

• Workshops and courses

No matter which stage of the writing process you're in - just getting started, writing a draft, or fine tuning and editing - I guide you in crafting captivating pieces that reflect your expertise and help you meet professional goals.

We'll start by getting to know you and what is most important about your writing project.  We'll clear away obstacles, develop skills and strategies, and discover and build on your strengths as a writer. Engaging with creative curiosity and a "what if?" mindset generates pieces that are both energizing to write and compelling to read.

I have over 20 years of experience teaching writing, both in schools and as a writing coach. This experience is complemented by my clinical knowledge to help you think through and express the clinical concepts you wish to convey. Through thought partnership and developing concrete writing skills, we’ll grow your strength and confidence as a writer, which you can take with you as you continue to write throughout your career.
