THE ARTIST’S MINDSET

Whether you’re a painter, a writer or a performer, it is utterly painful to have your artistic expression locked inside you without a way to access it…feeling the loss of connection to yourself and to your source.

BRINGING AWARENESS TO YOUR 
CREATIVE PRACTICE

My work with artists helps them to identify what is holding them back from making their art. By bringing awareness to their inner dialogues, assisting them in developing tools and skills to get beyond any limiting thoughts and beliefs, they can reengage with their creative work and develop a strong, sustainable and nurturing creative practice.

The Artist’s Mindset is a 12-week Online Group Coaching Program that focuses exclusively on how to develop a healthy creative mindset that will support your art making process and allow you to connect deeply with your inner voice and unique, authentic expression.

The Program brings the work I do with my 1 to 1 Coaching clients directly to you, in your home or workspace. Through video tutorials, experiential assignments and inner explorations, you’ll unlock your creative expression and engage with your art at a much deeper and authentic level, allowing you to easily move past creative blocks and navigate the challenges that artists often face when making their art.

The Artist’s Mindset : Online Group Coaching Program
will be offered again in the Fall of 2024

The Artist Mindset program provided me with a community of artists who were willing to share their struggles and their accomplishments in a safe environment. My biggest takeaway was strengthening my self confidence as an artist, as well as believing in my authentic voice.
— Karuna G
 
 
Engaging with The Artist Mindset exercises and with the other artists’ experiences slowly pulled me back into painting and I started to understand how resistance, self-criticism, and fear of commitment was keeping me from moving forward in painting and in my life. I didn’t expect to have a revelatory experience in this program, but I did.

I wasn’t really sure if I needed this program because I was already working on a regular basis, but this course may be one of the most valuable I’ve ever taken to help me move my art forward, to be more mindful while I paint and to question what arises – leading me to take more risks and show up authentically in my work.
— Robin O
My painting practice has changed to exploration and discovery - it’s more spontaneous and I’m much less bound and restricted by anxiety and discomfort. I found out so much about myself and came away with released tension and a new sense of adventure while painting.
— Gaye O
I strongly recommend The Artist’s Mindset for experienced artists who believe they have creative potential but struggle to express it. I can confidently say this program was a creativity game changer!
— Charley
Any artist seeking more heartfelt authenticity in their work will benefit from The Artist’s Mindset. I now allow, invite, and welcome creativity from a more personal inner source and make art with more purpose and meaning.
— Suzanne D
I have learned through The Artist Mindset program that without inward looking and knowing myself, I will continue to struggle in my art practice. I can answer my own questions with confidence and I am able to navigate my way through resistance without judging myself harshly. Without the heartwork there is no artwork.
— Diane P
I learned so much about my individual roadblocks and fears and it was comforting to know that I was not alone in the muck. I realize how important it is to remain connected to my inner dialogue and to build a community of artists that I can connect with locally.
