About
Just a little background...
Grow Your Vision
Green Room Counseling was originally conceptualized on the long journey home from a tour prep due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Although not new, the pandemic laid bare many of the challenges inherent in the touring lifestyle, including access, stigma, and awareness of mental health and its impacts on year-round and long-term wellness.
​
We celebrate the diversity of talents, identities, and experiences that come together to create events and memorable productions. We are neurodivergent-affirming LGBTQ+ allies, and believe you are the expert in your own lived experience.
Whatever your identity, background, or role, we are glad you are here.
Mission
It is our mission to provide accessible mental health counseling to touring and production pros in a manner that fits their lifestyle, expectations, and needs so they can get back to the work they love.
Vision
We work to support increased awareness and reduced stigma around mental health in these industries. This includes networking and collaborating with other organizations to strengthen individuals' access to services, and to improve employers' awareness of the options they have to better support their freelancers, contractors, artists, and employees.
