See What’s Blooming

“Initially, I was reluctant to sign up for Christian Expressive Arts coaching because I lack artistic talent. I discovered that expressive art therapy opened up a new pathway for healing—one that engaged a different part of my brain into my heart. Through prayer and meditation, Laura gently guided me into a deeper connection with Christ, where I experienced profound healing and joy. The artwork that resulted now serves as a reminder of the reality that Christ’s presence and love dwell within me!”

“Most of my life I have avoided expressive arts. It took a strong nudge from the Holy Spirit to overcome the resistance but I am so happy that I did. Christian Expressive Arts with Laura has opened an area of spiritual growth for me. I am increasingly learning to surrender to the process in openness without judgement or criticism and share my insights and movements. What a gift!”

“Christian Expressive Arts with Laura was not at all what I expected. She calmed all my fears of not being artistic and not doing it ‘right’ and guided me in prayerful breathing and opening my imagination to the Lord. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed our time together!”

“I asked Laura to paint an image for my brother for Christmas. I spoke to Laura a little bit about my brother and asked her to take it to prayer and paint whatever she felt nudging in her heart. Then came this beautiful painting that left my brother speechless. He said it was the best gift ever and felt the message of the painting resonated with his heart.”

“Painting with Laura for a family expressive art session was a wonderful experience for me and my children, all of us at different levels of comfort and skillfulness with art. Laura was welcoming and engaging. It felt as if she was in the room with us! Her gentle promptings and creative tips inspired my children to jump right in.”

“Painting with Laura had a remarkable effect on my anxiety - my mind was calmed and my body was able to relax. And these benefits lasted for several days. I couldn’t wait for the next session!”

“This painting means so much to me; first because Laura prayed about it throughout the painting process, and she also prayed for me personally.  And then, Jesus led her to a song titled, ‘Golden’, so that is the name of my painting.  It’s beautiful and so special to me.  Thank you Laura for your special gift.”

“Laura taught my children and me new techniques to open our minds to the creative possibilities. It was a very special time for me, to sit with my children and join in the fun and let Laura take the lead in teaching and guiding us all. Her warm, motherly, faith-filled presence inspired us all.”

“This was a surprising treasure.  With Laura’s encouragement, my hesitation to approach creativity has been breached with much fun and kindness. And not only that, but opening to that vulnerability and attacking perfectionism through creativity has opened up new pathways in my interior life leading to much peace and joy. Thank you, Laura!  Thank you, Holy Spirit!”

“In an expressive arts coaching session  with Laura and three of my friends, I wasn’t sure what to expect. It turned out being a beautiful session where each of us opened up in a way that perhaps we wouldn’t normally open up in regular conversation. In the safety of the group, facilitated by Laura, each one of us produced beautiful images to express what was on our heart.” 

“I am amazed at how being creative helps me to access the deep places in my heart so easily. And the Lord is really speaking to me and healing me through these guided art sessions. If you haven’t tried it yet, I highly recommend Christian Expressive Arts with Laura.”
