CREATIVE ARTIST ISSUES

Many creative artists are under the impression that creativity and suffering are so intertwined that the idea of becoming more fulfilled, less conflicted, or happier seems dangerous. What if it takes away my uniqueness as an artist?

If you are your instrument, then gaining greater access to yourself on both a conscious and unconscious level can lead to greater 'range of motion" creatively and can decrease ambivalence about success. I love helping creative people find more gratification in their personal and professional lives.
