Hello! I’m so glad you’re here. Like many of us, you might be dealing with trauma, burnout, stress, existential dread, or navigating neurotypical society as a neurodivergent person. Maybe you’re feeling stuck, isolated, or disconnected from yourself, or you’re exploring gender or sexuality. I welcome and celebrate your human-ness and your autonomy.
I see myself as a support and witness to your process–you are the expert on yourself and your life, and we’ll work together to get curious and explore what’s important to you through conversation and creative outlets. Intuitive, process-based creativity is a pathway to learn about, interact with, and express the deepest parts of ourselves.
Whether you would describe yourself as creative or not, I invite you to reach out. It’s all about the process, and I will meet you where you are with no judgement.
Call or Sarah Rizzi now for a free 15 minute consultation - (412) 376-4123
