Art Mentoring is a partnering relationship with artists within the context of their work.  We assist artists in addressing their emotional and psychological issues to help them authentically connect to their art with productivity and life balance. Our clients have included musicians, visual artists, architects, writers and individuals of all other vocations who desire to explore their creative abilities.

Mentoring is less intense interpersonally than formal counseling and gives the flexibility to accept clients with whom we have had some personal history. Should issues arise in our work that are counseling oriented, we will provide a referral or discuss with you the feasibility of moving into a counseling relationship. Mentoring is also available nationally through Skype and phone sessions.

Additionally we host a mentoring group called "The Fine Arts Struggle" and an "Artist Way" course that meets periodically throughout the year. Whether you are a touring musician, painter or writer please contact us for more details.
