The Creativity Coaching Process
A creativity coach helps you to explore and connect with your creative talents and offers activities, techniques and ongoing support to help you overcome creativity blocks.
Why?
We all carry life’s markings: the ways and places we’ve been damaged, bruised and hurt. Sometimes we get stuck in our pain and destructive, dysfunctional cycles of coping result. We function, but we function poorly. Often, our pain is difficult to express in words and we are left feeling misunderstood and isolated even though we’ve tried hard to communicate with others. Sometimes, words are not enough. Sometimes, we need other ways to get unstuck and we need tools to know how to move forward.
The Creativity Coaching process offers this help. Exploring alternative ways to express ourselves through being creative can be very beneficial, if not essential. Many people disqualify themselves from being creative since they do not feel artistic. I believe that every person has innate creativity. Discovering, developing and celebrating our creativity is an important key to ongoing healing. Our unique creative ability holds valuable potential to help us journey through pain and troubled times and can help shape the practical tools we need to better travel towards healing. Ignoring your creative abilities or keeping them undeveloped can be harmful in many ways.
What Happens?
During Creativity Coaching sessions and workshops, I use a range of selected creative activities and exercises together with counselling and coaching techniques to create a practical process best suited to my client’s needs. Sessions may function together with suggested homework tasks which could include reading material, journaling or creative projects.
Where?
Creativity Coaching takes place at my well equipped studios, counselling room or large exhibition hall. If more convenient, I offer online coaching via Skype or Zoom.
Who?
Creativity Coaching offers help in two main areas. It aims to help those who find it difficult to express themselves creatively, who have an undeveloped or even undiscovered creative expression style. My coaching is also aimed at those who want to process their emotional pain and be accompanied on their healing journey. Here there is a particular focus on emotional / body ill-health including chronic fatigue, burnout, stress related syndromes, auto immune conditions, anxiety, addiction and co-dependancy issues.
When?
Coaching is offered either through small group workshops or private, individual sessions. Workshops are topic focussed and have a maximum of 4 participants. Private, individual sessions can also be booked and usually last for 1.5 hours.
