Creative Resilience Workshops and Coaching

"Creativity is a way of making meaning in our lives. It is also a way of being with ‘unknowing’ and just leaning into our lives as they are. And at times it can be a way to push through old barriers and express new visions. Creativity is far richer than an object to be admired. It is a living, breathing process, an essential part of what it is to be human, and the birthright of each and every one of us."  Jo Campbell

​Creative Resilience Coaching

For more than thirty years, I've used art to explore and express what is important in my life. In the past 10 years, I've helped other people do the same through workshops and coaching. 

Together my clients and I have used creativity to explore all sorts of things; including grief, depression and anxiety, as well as gratitude, safety and belonging.

You do not have to be an 'artist' to be creative. In fact, far from it!  Read more here.

I'm not offering art therapy. Instead, I see myself as a creative partner in discovering what helps you to explore your own creative process.

I help you to can find your creative 'moves', to get beyond the stuck places and rediscover the joy that can be experienced when you're in the flow. 

​Please contact me if you'd like to know more about how I can support you in-person or online.

What does it cost?

​My workshops and coaching session fees work on a sliding scale. For workshops, the daily rate is approximately NZ$600 for community groups and NGOs, $750 for small businesses and $1000 for larger businesses. This fee covers materials and facilitation but does not cover venue hire and food. So, for example, if a community group can provide the venue and gather 8 participants, the cost to each person would be NZ$75 or NZ$50 each for the maximum which is 12 people. I can also offer half-day rates. If a course requires a lot of preparation before hand, I may need to charge extra for planning time. 

For individual coaching sessions I charge between NZ$60 and NZ$120 depending on your ability to pay. If you would like to support others, please consider 'paying it forward' so those less fortunate can participate. 
One of the questions I get asked a lot is how to quieten the inner critic. So in the starter pack I've included My Top 5 Ways of Moving Beyond Self Doubt.
