Where Spotlight Support began...
For nearly two decades, I have worked within the dance and performing arts industry as a teacher, choreographer, mentor, and business owner. During that time, I witnessed first-hand the immense pressures that can come with life on and off the stage.
The constant pursuit of excellence, the pressure to perform, the emotional investment in students and productions, the long hours, self-doubt, competition, injury, burnout, and the challenge of balancing personal wellbeing with professional demands can often feel overwhelming.
Because I lived those experiences myself, I understand the unique challenges that performers, teachers, creative professionals, and parents can face.
That understanding led me to train as a qualified counsellor and create Spotlight Support - a counselling service dedicated to the mental health and wellbeing of those involved in dance and the performing arts industry.
A space where you don't have to perform...
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, stress, confidence, burnout , perfectionism, performance pressure, relationship difficulties, grief, life transitions or feeling stuck - counselling offers a space to be yourself in a safe, confidential environment.
Free wellbeing guides for teachers, dancers & parents
Dance gives us so much, but there's a lot that comes with being part of this world too.
I've created three free eBooks exploring some of the things we actually experience in dance - whether you're teaching it, doing it or supporting someone who does. Click on the button below to download your eBook.
