Hello & Welcome to my feel-good place on the Internet!

​​​​

My name is Dianne and I am deeply rooted in my beliefs of love, healing, creating, art, compassion, being kind to myself and others and bringing more connection throughout the world. My journey and vision in life is to inspire you to believe in yourself and to live your true authentic, kreative self. 

​

I am extremely passionate about empowering you to strengthen the love that is already within you, to implement self-care practices into your life while kreating new thought patterns, decrease anxiety, boost confidence and social skills (+ more) through art & mindfulness.

​

My background story:

 

I am who I am today because of my past and all of the healing I have put into myself. I have overcome different layers of trauma, along with many other dark experiences I have encountered throughout my life. As a child and teen, I suffered through an enormous amount of turmoil and pain which led me to develop poor behaviors and patterns for many years. However, I have become aware of not wanting to live in that heaviness anymore and so, for the past 17+ years with incorporating mindfulness, positive affirmations, mantras, mindset work, reiki, breathing exercises, meditation exercises and especially ART as a healing modality, I transformed my life from dark to light. I truly believe our internal world is a reflection of our external world and that everyone is capable of transforming.

​

Can we agree that sometimes we cannot find the “right” words to describe what we are thinking, feeling and what our emotions are like?! I have learned how to tap-in and channel my inner flow and make sense of what my internal self is experiencing by expressing my Self through creating art.

 

I have learned to trust my intuition and really listen to my mind, body, heart and soul ... which allows me to help you connect deeper with your inner Self and strengthen your intuition.

​

Although I am passionate about using art to guide you to unite with the core of your essence, I also incorporate other holistic activities that help do just the same: mind-set work, positive self-talk & affirmations, breathing exercises and mindfulness tools, just to name a few. 

​

About The Healing-Art-Creating Process:

 

If you do not feel comfortable creating art during a session, that is totally OK... I intend for you to be open and honest with me about it and we can create a plan that works best for you! Please keep in mind that you do not have to be an artist nor is the art-making about the way the art looks when it is completed... It is all about the process of creating the art and tapping into each moment and how the creative process is making you feel.

​

I have healed so many of my internal wounds and I have started loving myself more through the process of art-making. Creating art has helped me gain a sense of my life's purpose wth supporting and helping so many others, it helps boost my confidence and self-esteem, it helps me be more present and in the moment while it decreases any stress and anxiety I may experience that I am able to pass onto those that I work with. 

 

Which brings me here today:

 

I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling and Psychology with a concentration in Art Therapy and I have worked in an outpatient facility helping children, teens and adults improve on self-esteem, confidence, social skills and stress relief while providing helpful techniques for those who were suffering from trauma, depression and anxiety. 

​

While working as an art therapist in the clinical setting, I was inspired to become a Kreative Self-Love coach because I strongly believe that incorporating art, mindfulness and building upon self-love and self-care can significantly enhance one’s life and all around well-being. I want to help others learn how to heal with what I know has personally helped me and so many others - with my very own heART formula.

​

Since therapy and counseling are not the same as coaching, I have earned and now have certificates in Life Coaching and Mindfulness.

​​

I also hold a BA in Psychology, an Associates in Early Childhood Development, I am a level II Reiki practitioner, I am a Support Leader at Still Standing Together where I present at workshops that empower women, I am an art facilitator at adult retreats and I teach painting to the tweens and teens in the homeschooling community, along with being a homeschooling parent to a teenager myself. 

​​

I thrive on healing myself and maintaining my own self-love and self-care so I can empower others to do the same because I believe each individual plays a role in the advancement of the collective consciousness of humans. I believe that the more we heal as individuals, the more healing our world will experience (the ripple effect).

​

Through my observation of my own personal life and studying and working in the psychology and mental health field, I have learned that every human has suffered and experienced pain in their lives one-way-or-another. This pain can still be stored within the body which could cause blockages that may withhold the individual from moving forward in their life and reaching their full potential. This is where I can come in and help you flourish and prosper and help you break down barriers you have once built towards love.
