Everyone was born creative
I truly believe that.
I hope my journey inspires you to discover your own unique expression.
I grew up being an artist as a child but then I grew out of it as an adult. Perfectionism took over instead. One of my biggest frustrations about myself is that I know how art has given me joy and healing, and yet I never allow myself to continue creating. Now, as I fall deeper into battling real anxiety, I am more and more desperate to let creativity take over instead. I believe that I've been given a precious gift and I don't want it to go to waste anymore.
So now, I am seeking ways to pursue creativity in the midst of my anxiety.
If nothing else, I hope that my story and work will inspire and encourage you. Supplemented by my work as an expressive therapist and chaplain, be assured that I will always bring gentle honesty into everything that I offer.
