Creative Companioning
Are you looking to rejuvenate your creative practice?
Build a creative life for yourself?
Are you looking for a companion to explore your creative practice?
Are you feeling stuck with expressing your creativity?
Have you been feeling overwhelmed by self-doubt or perfectionism?
Do you want to develop creative confidence?
Do you want to develop trust in your emergent self?
Do you have a creative idea or project you want to explore with another?
So what is Creative Companioning?
It's 1:1 companioning that is holistic and takes into account your whole creative self. Each session is individual and flows in an organic process that is emergent. You don't need to be an artist just have a desire to explore the creative process with whatever is present for you in your life. These sessions help you reframe how you want to be in the world.

gentle presence
deep listening
non-judgement
asking questions
warmth and care

patience
belief in your potential
