THE HEART BEHIND THE ART
Hello there!
My name is Jannette, and I am the founder of Creative Healing Expressions, LLC which originally DBA DRSimpleCreativity for almost 13 years. I am a islander learning to live life in here in the midwest for the past 18 years. From an early age, I got to experience the power of imagination, creativity and community/connection in the process of self-discovery, navigating life’s difficult challenges, and developing self-awareness about areas with margin for personal growth. I utilized my own lived experiences, my passion for creativity and the fiery desire to serve others as a catalyst to create spaces where people could be empowered to move towards a healthier version of themselves and explore areas of creative stuckness while practicing connection, enjoying community, and being playful.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a creative play facilitator for this many many years, and feel fortunate to be in a stage of life where I can combine years of academic training and service in the area of business, ministry, expressive arts and community work in my country, alongside wit my lived experiences in the United States and other countries, and pair it with my education and experience as a Therapist. This has allowed me to create and hold space for the individual needs and uniqueness of the groups and organizations I serve through creative expression, souls-care, spiritual engagement, along with psychoeducation in a variety of mental, relational and emotional wellness/health topics.
I hope in this site you can find inspiration to engage in your creative process, build community and connection with the people you care about and develop or improve your relational, emotional and expressive life . Don’t hesitate to reach out with your questions regarding booking a group, request a retreat/event for your organization, your personal event or find a workshops at some local craft stores and coffee shops,
Thank you for taking your time to visit and engage with this site. I am here to walk alongside you in your empowering journey towards growth and creative expression.
