COSTUME THERAPY

“Experience the heART of Transformation”

Thank-you for finding your way here!

My name is Danielle Diamond,

I’m an actress/photographer & fashion designer who, through my own extensive healing journey, became a big nerd for psychology & passionate advocate of EMBODIED FREEDOM.

My big dream for the world is to see all humans living their most expansive life, so I designed this self-development & community connection practice to help break cycles & forge new paths…

I call it: The Costume Therapy Method.

This is therapy for the mythic self.


This is performance as medicine

Welcome Fellow Seekers,

Have you ever noticed that when you change your clothes, something inside of you also shifts?

Or what about the phenomenon where people seem to really ‘let loose’ at costume parties, saying or doing things totally out of character but having the best time?

I recognized these patterns & with a little intuition, and a lot of lived experience, developed a practice to help YOU become your best self.

Costume Therapy is my unique approach to intentional evolution.

In Costume Therapy we use dramatic arts & CREATIVITY to manifest goals, & process complex patterns.

We use ritual, play, ceremony, performance art, and the language of costume to access, examine, embody, & reveal deep emotions & personal truth.

A journey into who you really are or - Who you could be..

This is a method for those of us seeking creative ways to wholeness.

About My Method!

What I Offer:

Private Coaching Sessions

Are you ready to begin a radical journey of personal healing or transformation? These sessions are an invitation to explore the depths of who you are, uncover the narratives that no longer serve you, and step with more confidence into the next phase of your personal evolution.

Workshops & Parties

Costume Therapy is especially effective when working together. Channeling the power of performance, we use radical transparency practice to build trust, safety & care in communities. Think group therapy meets costume party. It’s fun & profoundly healing.

Ritual Photography

As a professional costume stylist & photographer - I have seen how powerful portraits can help us manifest & actualize our transformation dreams. Work with me to create stunning & magical images for your home, alter or business.

In the costume therapy method, we take the fun from the costume party & infuse it with sacred intentionality.

This is not about pretending — it’s about BECOMING..

Through guided sessions and personally-tailored processes, you can sort through, ditch or stitch together the fragmented parts of your identity & life story.

You’re not just exploring identity — you’re going through a rite of passage.

I design unique sessions for my clients that combine elements of dramatic arts, psychology, drama therapy, somatic work & spiritual ritual.

Your personal process can be structured and clinical, or a full on ceremonial journey.

The Many-Faceted Self.

MEET THE MAKER

My name is D. I. Diamond & I live at the intersection of art and ceremony — where the costume closet meets the altar.

My work began in personal fire: Grief I couldn’t name, finding parts of myself I had to hide, and facing false-selves I had created to survive.

I’m an embodiment coach, performer, photographer, designer, and creator of The Costume Therapy Method.

As a life long lover of OUT LOUD living, I developed this drama & embodied arts based healing modality for folks like me, & for the future.

It makes a lot of sense to me, that as a showbiz professional pivoting to the world of wellness,

My Therapist office has a stage.

What if healing didn’t have to be invisible?

Costume Therapy is a performative healing art that treats the psyche like a stage.

You don’t just look at the wound — you become it to release it.

You follow your frustrations to freedom.

You explore your shadows till they feel light.

Like the Way you Work It…

In my practice I work like an artist: Blending inspiration with proven techniques.

1-0-1 Coaching is the best way to dive deep into your personal transformation journey with me, and I now offer zoom meetings for world-wide accessibility.

Costume Therapy is especially useful when working with groups. We use the power of group presence to upgrade & actualize our individual selves…together!

“Art is the possibility to connect our physical self with our spiritual self;

It can bring the joy of life into heavy topics. Art can activate & align us with our spirit’s organic expression.”

Choose Your Own Adventure…

Are you a bit neuro-spicy? Tend to lean into the adhd spectrum? Thrive in change or wish you did?

Good. Me too!

Here’s a nice & structured list to show off all the fabulous & freedom-cultivating practices I use in The Costume Therapy Method.

When we first start working together we get nerdy & make a plan. Then often times the plan gets forgotten as we dive headfirst into the transformational vortex of creative chaos.

Do you long for deep connection but often times find yourself feeling like the odd one out in the crowd?

Do you crave more intimacy with the people in your life but fear that showing your true colors will scare people away?

One of the most amazing things about this practice, is that it builds trust which creates connection.

True trust is built on honesty, and when you allow yourself to be seen for who you truly are -

Trust is built. Connections deepen.

WHAT IS COSTUME THERAPY?

Costume Therapy treats the psyche like a stage, Allowing clients to explore their inner landscape in a tangible way.

The brain creates new neural pathways in a state of play. Engaging in arts helps clients transform with speed.
