TRANSFORMATIONAL COUNSELLING FOR ACTORS
Clearing Challenging Blocks to Ones Creative Artistic Process with Ross Andaloro

Many actors have difficulty in being able to access roles if they are affected by anxieties and blocks from their past personal life.

This transformational work is about clearing difficulties and regrets of the past that are subconsciously impeding their clarity and flexibility with challenging acting roles.

I have been supporting the arts community in Vancouver and Toronto towards excellence in their craft for 40 years.

This insight and awareness work combines a wide range of consciousness techniques developed by the human potential communities in Britain, Canada, India, Tibet and the United States.

My rate for a one-on-one meeting is $150 for a 1 hour and 15 minute session. I am happy to give a 20% discount to ACTRA members for my services.

I offer this service in person in both Vancouver and Toronto and by Telephone, FaceTime and Skype.
