Work with Me
My Approach
As artists we all work to touch the soul in some way. That’s why it makes perfect sense for me to bring heart and soul back into the creative work you do.
My approach therefore goes beyond ‘traditional’ book or writing coaching because I like to go deep: exploring below the surface of what’s revealing itself. So a typical session with me often begins with uncovering your why. Why do you create? Why do you write, make art, perform?
We can so easily get caught in the process and mechanics of creating that we lose track of that fundamental question; and yet the answer to it is often the key to bringing us back to a deeper understanding of and connection to ourselves.
Next, we might explore places where you’re getting stuck. We’ll scratch underneath the surface and those ‘obvious’ answers to get a sense of what’s really going on. This is often the space that opens up to shadow work.
Identifying, acknowledging and building a more conscious relationship with our shadows can help us move forward. I’ll guide you through and into a space where you’re able to expand creatively and build resilience.
