Student Testimonial: “It’s funny how when you stop and take the time to really consider what makes you happy how often it’s the little things that you might take for granted. This workshop has certainly helped to remind me to slow down and appreciate all the awesome stuff going on around me at any given moment.”
Join me for expressive arts workshops of self discovery. This diverse program is available online and in person (North Carolina). In these workshops you will learn how to use art, writing and reflection as tools for healing and personal growth. Working from the inside out, your heart and soul will be revealed to you on the page.
Learn the tremendous healing power of keeping a “heArt Journal.” Work through and document your thoughts and ideas by playing with art materials. Our focus is all about the PROCESS! No prior writing or artistic experience required.
Discover your passions, unearth your dreams, face your fears, and learn to fully love the life you are living! We will be exploring different themes throughout the year including Happiness, Breaking Past Fears, and learning to Set Intentions.
The Online Classroom
These online programs feature video instruction, printable PDFs, private check-ins with the instructor and access to the online community featuring forums & chat. Once you register, you will have instant access to the workshop for 3 months! That’s plenty of time to work at your own pace, review the materials, and share in the forums.

Student Testimonial:“It was nice to sit still with my thoughts and be able to write them down. At first I thought that I wouldn’t have much to say but once I got started it just kept on going.
