Somewhere in my work in mental health, my approach took a shift from supporting symptoms to supporting the whole creative person. I believe that when you support and understand the creative personality fully, presenting symptoms that seemed clinical can evaporate. This has become foundational to the work that I do. "I want you to know that when you feel empowered by your creative personality, fears and symptoms will no longer control you." My love for creative people, my own art, and the many years I have spent working in mental health, I discovered that our beautiful, strong creative personalities can be over-clinicalized. My gift to you is to reclaim the strengths inherent in your creative mind, while shedding your self-doubt and fears.

Creativity Coaching delivers services with a focus on specific life challenges facing a creative person.

These can look like perfectionism, creative blocks, loss of meaning or direction, breaking into the marketplace, establishing a creative career, making space for your creativity, putting an art degree to work and more. The field of Creativity Coaching is growing because of the recognition of the importance of specific care for these specific problems in the lives of creative people, and I am here to help.

Recovering Purpose and Meaning in Your Work (6 weeks, 1,600)
One of the most common obstacles for artists is a loss of passion in their work. This is often caused by a loss of purpose or meaning. The reasons for these changes are many and varied- but can be addressed and supported. Rather than giving up on your dreams, being told to work harder, or that something else is at the root of your problems, let’s address this important obstacle head-on with expert knowledge of the creative process, creative mind, and how to use them to your advantage to re-light that fire. 6 weeks, six live coaching sessions, with the option to extend.
Using your Art Degree (6 weeks, 1,600)
So you have invested years of your life and thousands of dollars, not to mention blood, sweat and tears into your passion. Now you have moved out of your dorm and studio and into the “real world.” Feeling lost, confused, discouraged or unsure of what to do next? You are not alone. Too often, art school does not leave students feeling prepared to address issues like marketplace, financial goals, motivation, overwhelm, and the daily grind of creating. In six live coaching sessions we will address the biggest obstacles and create a plan to jumpstart you into the art life of your dreams.
Supporting a Healthy Creative Personality (4 weeks, 1,100)
What does it mean to be highly creative? It means a lot. Would it surprise you to know that highly creative people actually have personality traits in common? Does this sound like you?: Strong emotions, strong independent drive, questioning mind, need to make and/or find meaning, areas of high sensitivity (perhaps sensory, perhaps in other areas), hyper focus, high standards even bordering on if not full blown perfectionism? There are more. These are not bad things. These are your superpowers. In 4 live coaching sessions, we will learn about the creative brain of yours and how to empower yourself with this knowledge to live your healthiest life.
