Explore What's Not Working Anymore



At Center for Creative Growth, we believe that true transformation begins by acknowledging what no longer serves us. Whether you are not fully in love with where you are at in life at the moment, an athlete striving for peak performance or an artist seeking inspiration, it's essential to recognize the barriers that hinder progress.

Our Team

Danielle Beardsley, LCPC, CADC, ATR

I am a Clinical Art Therapist, Addictions Counselor, Sports Performance Coach & Founder of Center for Creative Growth Inc. I practice in the spirit of reminding clients they are in control of their own lives and that we will support them in problem solving through trial and error (aka: learning). And that, that could be okay. I believe people need people. I allow and encourage clients to be free to explore their lives from within a non-judgmental relationship. I come close to clients' metaphorical smoke & fire, kneel beside them and allow them to feel and know we are in this together and there is indeed a solution to the problem. I am here to remind you that you will find a way to safely make it out of the smoke & fire of what life is giving you right now.

Carson Fields, MA, CMPC Applicant

I obtained my masters in Sport & Exercise Psychology. I am currently waiting to get the green light to sit for the Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) test. I work closely with performers to unlock their true potential. I utilize my own athletic experience and psychology background to provide mental skills training. Through meaningful conversations and exercises, clients learn to align who they want to be with what they are doing. I support and guide individuals and teams to be the best they can be. We are what we think. We all have a mind, so it's important we take the time to understand and utilize our thoughts to work for us not against us.

Why Not, Now?



Remember, there's no need for the “perfect” moment to start work on ourselves—just a willingness to sit in discomfort. Our compassionate team is here to walk side by side of you, whether you're navigating life transitions, seeking clarity, or simply ready to explore some maintenance and new design options to your inner landscape.

At the end of the day, you are more ready than your mind tells you you are. Reach out, and let's take that next step together. We got you.
