Barbara grace, director - school of modern psychology and developer of 'creative mindfulness'
I have worked with people for over 30 years as educator, coach and therapist. While no one tool can meet everyone's needs, I believe Creative Mindfulness is a way of connecting with what lays beneath the surface of our conscious mind - and it is here that the greatest change work can happen in a gentle and guided way.
I invite you to join me for a journey where your innate creativity is re-kindled as a tool to bring awareness to your values and how they could be impacting the way you relate to others - and more importantly yourself.
