Bringing Creativity to all Practitioners
Join over 4000 individuals who have experienced the transformative impact of our Workshops and Introductory and Practitioner level courses where you learn how to safely explore the client’s hidden underlying patterns so that deeper and more lasting work can be done.
WHY USE CREATIVITY IN YOUR PRACTICE AND WHY DOES IT WORK?
When clients only use their conscious mind, they may be locked by their thought patterns or not be able to find the right vocabulary to truly express what is going on for them. And that means you may only have part of the story to work with.
Using Creativity as an approach bypasses the conscious mind and provides a pathway to the unconscious mind. And that enables feelings, thoughts, beliefs and values to come to the surface that would otherwise be hidden. It’s at this deeper level that the more profound and lasting work can be done.
Awaken your ability to use creative methods by experiencing and learning how to use creativity in your practice.
“Love these workshops, I have learned so much and now feel so much more confident using creative techniques with my clients.”
Don’t worry, no known artistic ability is needed. NEITHER YOU NOR YOUR CLIENTS NEED TO HAVE PRIOR EXPERIENCE OF BEING CREATIVE. To get the benefit from these workshops you just need to be able to doodle or use your imagination and or glue.
“I have learned so much from Christina and Lindsey over the last 18 months or so and today was no exception. I now use their techniques with many of my clients and love watching the clients moving forward, especially when they are stuck.”
