Anne. D - Art & Self-Expression - Coaching & Private Sessions

I am here to give you insight and gentle support as you go through your process of "learning more about yourself and your creative process" in a way that will empower you. One of the ways in which I like to do this is by helping you reconnect with your passion and your sense of play so you can find the inspiration and motivation to make the changes that you desire.

Coaching Sessions

My role is to provide you with the support and guidance you need to unfold your gifts in the most flowing and joyful way. But it is always you who directs the flow of the energy, and it is you who is in charge of what you want to get out of a session. This is to be determined before the sessions, and will be adjusted during the sessions.

As a result, Personal Coaching Sessions can take many forms which will ultimately be determined by you:

First, what you would like to get out of each.

Second, your interests, your style of learning, your own values and priorities, and what inspires and motivates you.

More than coaching you, I will teach you how to coach yourself. My intent is to help you design your own tools, the ones that truly feel "right" for you.

We will be looking at your current creative self-expression and asking some of the following questions:

How can you make sure that you are accessing your true heart's desires during your creative process?

How can you loosen up and free up any of your creative endeavors towards more spontaneity and joy in your daily-life?

How can your personal process be used as a tool for more self-awareness and empowerment?

How can you use the process of self-discovery and creativity to help you reach goals that are more in alignment with who you truly are and what you truly desire in your life?

Although I have many ideas of what can be done and what is available to us during a session, I do not want to prescribe the process ahead of time. Instead, I wish to use my experience and our connection to the very moment, to come up with the "choreography" we feel is both fun and "appropriate" for you.

It is a dynamic form of Life-Coaching that uses your active participation, communication and creative self-expression.

Private Sessions

During a Private Session I will work with your specific areas of concern, your dreams, your desires, your visions, your blocks. We use dialogue and creative self-expression to access the non-logical, non-linear information stored in your subconscious and to uncover - or simply clarify - your true heart's desires.

While I do share my insights with you, you will not exclusively and passively be receiving a "download of information" from me - unless it is actually what you wish. Instead, it is more fruitful when a session becomes an exchange, and a balance, between what you give and what I give to your session. I am here to support you in your process of self-discovery, pointing you towards more freedom and creativity.

The only prescribed parts of a session will be:

First to take an inventory of where you are at right now;

Second, where you think you would like to be, what you want, your heart's desires, but also what you would like to change, your blocks, your belief systems, your conscious and unconscious limitations. You may already have some ideas before we start, but more will be revealed as the session unfolds. And you may be surprised by what shows up...

In many ways, I am here to reflect back to you the messages you are ready to give to yourself at this time. We will use different kinds of tools to get in touch with these - often buried - feelings and messages.

I have drawn my inspiration, throughout my life, from many different people who have influenced my development as an artist: through numerous classes, books, and workshops. I love to mix different styles, disciplines, media, and philosophies - and I also love to question them, challenging myself and others in the process.

If we truly embrace the fact that "change is the only permanent thing in life" then this inquiry will never stop. Because there will always come a time when we outgrow the philosophical and spiritual models, as well as mental and societal structures, we once embraced - no matter how advanced they seemed at the time. In this way, I am also very much a product of this age which embraces fast spiritual growth and great diversity.

If it is something that appeals to you, we may also mix disciplines like: painting, drawing, dance, writing, acting, singing & music, nature... and whatever else we can think of that is available at the moment and which inspires you. Each form of creativity and communication will provide us with a different part of the puzzle, in a revealing and spontaneous dance of self-expression.
