Songwriting Mentorship
Over the years, I’ve designed group songwriting workshops from my heart and intuition. Some of what I’ve offered in the past includes Spark Songwriting, Intuitive Songwriting, Healing with Song, Songwriting Through the Body, and others.
This year, I’m offering individual Songwriting Mentorships for writers who want to complete a body of work (a full-length album or a collection of songs, any length). I work with writers at all stages (emerging to very experienced). And whether you want to focus solely on the writing process and your creative expression or additionally want support around recording and releasing your work as well, I can be a support for you. Mentorships with me are a commitment of 3, 6, or 9 months—I’d love to connect with you about your goals and vision.
I strongly value the writer’s relationship to their heart, body, and voice and will guide you to lean on your unique personal wisdom, intuition, and vision. Beyond that, I can work with you on any of the following: building musical skills, structure and form, writing resonant lyrics and melody, innovation and experimentation (nothing is off limits and I’m down for breaking the “rules” of songwriting any time).
Most importantly, my hope is for you is to be completing work that you are proud of, inspired by, and that feels connected your authentic expression. I don’t follow a specific system or playbook so that each mentorship will be individually tailored to your goals, dreams, curiosities, and interests. I will also provide emotional support in releasing fears, anxiety, and challenges that may present for you through our work together, bringing in a somatic healing element if that’s of interest to you.
FEEDBACK FROM SONGWRITERS
“The most helpful part of the workshop, by far, was your uniquely spiritual approach. I have taken other songwriting and creative workshops that completely eliminated the meditative aspect necessary to relax into your creative zone. I have always had massive anxiety about performing my original songs in front of other people, but your workshop made me feel so comfortable and at peace. It was amazing overall.”

I felt a tremendous sense of growth as a songwriter. Learning about form and the elements of song helped me gain a sense of awareness about my writing habits and realize ways in which I'd like to try things differently. The most beneficial thing for me was realizing that it doesn't matter what else is going on in my life, if I prioritize my creative expression and designate time in my day for it (in whatever amount) I will always have the ability to produce and improve. I can’t express how helpful this was.

“I was inspired! I wrote a new song "Constellations" and got some really great skills using EFT/Tapping for unlocking creativity.”
