Art that moves you

from drowning in feelings
to being propelled by their power

You are not broken.

I know it feels like it, sometimes. Feelings are real.

But there is a difference between feelings and nature.

When you were born, I saw your light and power.

Everyone saw it, your power,

And their own.

Blue sky

And then clouds scudded in, obscuring your light.

I still see it, your light and power.

I will stand beside you and see it until you can see it.

Stand under your own blue sky, feeling the warmth of your sun, unobstructed.

How does your authentic creativity feel, and what do you need to connect with this abundant inner resource? How do you include intuition and imagination in the process of your life? How do you anchor into your innate wholeness and self-love?

These questions rest at the center of my practice. When you collaborate with me, expect to learn how to build your relationship with these vital human resources. Imaginative dialog deeply empowers your ability to sense and honor your authentic self, which naturally strengthens healthy connections with others. In both individual sessions and community circles, I support you to discover your personal entryways into the deep wealth of imaginative and creative life-forces. Intuitive art, psychedelic integration, and dialog are the main tools I offer; which tools we work with will depend on what best serves your unique needs.
Intuitive art supports the embodiment of authenticity, curiosity and healthy self-guidance. Intuitive expression is the most common missing ingredient in holistic health. We are good at including the mind, getting better at including our bodies, yet many people ignore their need for creative expression. If you are brave enough to include your inner artist (who is alive in every person, including you!), you will tap into a power that allows you to flow with life.

Sitting in ceremony with psychedelic medicine builds bridges to expansive creativity for those who are willing to make a commitment to integration work. Integration is a commitment to devoting energy to change and to embodying the learning that comes with it.

Dialog is a familiar friend to most of us. My dialog style has been influenced by therapeutic art, somatic practices, transformative justice and non-violent communication.
In our time together, you can expect depth and play. As we collaborate, we will visit the houses of grief and celebration. Every person travels through harm and loss. I have deep trust in the grieving process and its ability to nurture human resilience. Every person also radiates a unique genius that naturally calls for expression and celebration. I look forward to experiencing and celebrating your genius.
