What's the difference between art therapy and coaching?
Art therapy is focused on healing psychological concerns and processing emotions through art. Coaching, on the other hand, uses art materials for self-expression and personal growth but doesn’t focus on addressing psychological conflicts. Coaching aims to help people tap into their inner strength and creativity to enhance their lives.

“Paint From Your Soul™” is a unique coaching experience that helps you embody feminine archetypes through art. You’ll work with an archetype that resonates with you to increase self-awareness and inner wisdom. There are 7 steps in this framework that encourage you to build up layers of paint and infuse meaning in it so that your painting is authentic and represents the journey you went on to create it. No art skills are needed, and the process is about self-expression, not creating a perfect art piece. Using a basic face mapping technique, Krista will teach you how to create a face for you to create your chosen archetype.
