“Your life is already artful - waiting, just waiting, for you to make it art.”
Your creativity lights you up like nothing else does. It reconnects you to the deepest, most vital parts of your being.
But being highly sensitive in a busy world means you’re often overwhelmed and depleted. There never seems to be enough time, or energy, or courage to do the very thing that makes you come alive.
And that’s eating you up inside.
The truth is, while there are many sounds around and within you that distract and challenge you: underneath all of it lies your true voice. Healing starts with cutting through the noise, and listening deeply to what that voice is saying.
If working on your creativity feels self-indulgent, know this - there is nothing frivolous about reclaiming your life force, your very essence.
Through Therapy for Creativity, we’ll clear your creative blocks, transform overwhelm and paralysis into expressive flow and play, and reconnect you to the beauty and wonder of your inner and outer worlds.
“sensitive people are unusually creative. It can feel, at times, like too much of everything. But the beauty that can come of that energy, when it is channelled into a creative work, can be sublime.”
