Creativity contains coping capabilities. For anyone facing life’s challenge, accessing our creativity may produce healing solutions. 

Catastrophic illness, loss of a loved one, loss of a job, a major move and divorce are prominent stressors in everyday life. With one exception, I’ve experienced all of those stressors. Creativity influenced my recovery. I believe our best medicine is at the ends of our fingertips when we tap into creativity as a healing tool. We are both the patient and the prescription. I have always loved writing and began keeping a journal when I was 11. I also love collage. I’m fascinated by how bits of paper, dabs of glue and a bit of whimsy become an incredible piece of art.
