Philosophy:
I have a holistic philosophy about creativity. I believe that it is not so much about having talent as it is about managing talent holistically. (Just ask any actor who is currently in rehab!) Our creativity is affected by all of the areas listed here and more:
-
culture
-
stereotypes
-
emotions
-
intuition
-
self-care
-
spirituality
-
limiting beliefs
-
values
-
experiences
-
environment
-
self-esteem
-
confidence
Methods of Working:
Phone coaching with email support, all email, or in person with email support (in order of preference).
Specializations:
I help and encourage all types of creatives to build strong holistic frameworks to support their creativity. We look at the business side from a holistic perspective too, when the client is interested in selling her work.
I graduated from the Couch U Coach Training Program, and I have a B.S. degree in Education. I’m also a certified Reiki Master-Teacher. I’ve attended weekend workshops at Omega Institute on creativity and intuition with Julia Cameron and Belleruth Naparstek, respectively.
Individual Services:
Coaching, Reiki treatments, Reiki training
Workshops:
Journaling for Mind, Body, and Spirit – We use several forms of random stimuli to help your words jump onto the page!
Design Your Future – We build a strong holistic foundation on which to support your goals.

I’m open to suggestions!
Classes:
I offer teleclasses called I. During these classes, we call in every hour to report our progress and declare our intentions for the next hour while working on our creative projects. It keeps us focused, and its fun!
