Customer Testimonials
Expressive Arts Coaching Read More
"What I love about sessions with Stephanie is that she listens deeply and trusts her listening. That opens the door to the unexpected. She meets me where I am at and skillfully and gently guides me over the edge.
I can fully relax and know I'm held - from there what feels impossible becomes quietly possible.
I leave sessions enriched and more intimate with me and humanity.
Thank you for your heart offering Stephanie."

"Working with Stephanie was a wonderful and professional creative process with the Expressive Arts. I found the session an excellent and useful tool. I discovered clarity, and meaning in my current situation, leading towards a greater self-discovery and understanding."
Expressive Arts in Residence Read More
"Helping seniors remain productive and creative is very positive. Stephanie worked with my mother in her later years living in a nursing home. They painted and crafted. Stephanie is a fine artist in her own right. They did a huge wall mural involving residents in helping to create a fun atmosphere in the lodge. Stephanie was patient, kind and always had a great way to help my mother express her creativity. She was a great help to our family in keeping our mom happy."

"Thank you! I felt carried in your quiet and focused guidance during the Expressive Arts Coaching, while having space and support for my exploration. While enjoying the process of inner expression, the outcome surprised and enlivened me. Finding the meaning in it all, helped to apply it in my life. Looking at the painting, I know clearly which direction to take in my decision and what it mean to me."

Feng Shui for Home Business Read More
"Our house feels lighter and less cluttered. We feel more relaxed and content after our sessions with Stephanie. Others commented on how nice it felt. After applying the suggestions for placing desks, bed, organize our downtime spaces, ‘do’ our ‘hobbies’, we both felt met by our ‘new space’. It’s fascinating and really helpful. You’ll discover things about yourself and your home helping transform your experience of your space. No need to spend lots of money either!"
Feng Shui for Home Read More
"Our house felt like we just moved in, it wasn’t tailored to our needs. After implementing Stephanie’s Feng Shui suggestions of moving my husband’s office up from the basement to the abundance and the fish tank to the career area of the house, he got a raise, an inheritance and more daily benefits. In the upper level he is more part of the family. We sleep better. Our son is going to bed easier, more comfortable in his study room, feeling stronger. I started yoga, having a space for it. I like working looking out a window, not backing towards upcoming stairs."
Feng Shui for Home Read More
Twice Stephanie did a Feng Shui Consultation for me. Amazing! The 2nd one online Germany/Canada was as good and precise as the 1st one on site. By her intuition, incredible Feng Shui knowledge and application of Interior design, she reads the needs of the people and the place finding the right solutions. I can totally trust her. With her help my small garden became the greatest jewel: so peaceful and colourful, that a friend said: “Wow, a little Zen Garden.”
