Play Steinberg

FATHER. MOTHER. GOD.

Grappling with family legacies of addiction, trauma, mental illness, and spiritual spinout, Play Steinberg wrestles with the past, seeking healing and reclamation amidst their lost Jewish roots. Autobiographical webcomic, real and raw. What does it take to heal, and how far is Play willing to go?

Play Steinberg (they/them) is a mapmaker and meaning-maker, drawing connections, queering boundaries and transcending limits wherever they go. With a passion for transformation and making the invisible visible, Play supports partners and clients in unlocking their potential, fostering inner and outer alignment, and realizing their highest purpose. As a visual facilitator and scribe, Play has worked across all sectors and subject matters. As a creative facilitator and coach, Play serves the highest in every client, especially when they don’t yet see it themselves.
