Creative Coach Gothenburg | Art & Creation as a Method
Are you stuck? Do you feel that words are not enough to describe where you are or where you want to be? As a certified coach in Catalysing Coaching® and an established artist, I offer creative coaching – a unique method where we let artistic and creative expression lead the way for your change.
At my studio in Majorna, you get to work with colour, form and design as tools to explore your inner drivers. You certainly do not need any previous artistic experience. This is not about performing, but about transforming.
What is coaching using artistic methods?
Traditional conversational coaching is immensely powerful, but sometimes we get stuck in our habitual intellectual ruts. By integrating creative expressions such as painting, drawing, or role-play into the conversation, we often bypass our defences and unlock mental blockades.
As your creative coach, I will guide you through the process. For example, we can:
Paint your obstacles or goals to make them visually tangible.
Using exercises taken from improvisational theatre to practise presence, spontaneity and letting go of control.
Explore transformative art, where the very process of creation brings about the inner change you seek.
Who is creative coaching for?
Creative coaching is for those who are looking for an alternative or complement to traditional life or career coaching. It is particularly suitable if you:
Want to break old thought patterns and need new ways to look at your situation.
Feel blocked in relationships or in your professional role.
Find it difficult to put your feelings or visions into words and need a visual language.
Looking forward to a more playful and intuitive way of working with personal development.
- Both you who love art and you who can barely hold a pen, everything is tailored to your needs
Transformative art – Creation as change
All forms of creation leave a mark on us. Transformative art is about letting the art-making process be a mirror for your own personal development. Through my own experience with traditional techniques (such as watercolour, oil and charcoal) and my background as a coach and social worker, we create a safe space where you dare to explore the unknown.
How creative coaching works
When working with art as a method, one could say that the hands and vision become your thinking organ. Through dialogue and entirely pressure-free creation, we explore themes and areas in your life where change is needed. Instead of getting stuck within the confines of words, we use various creative methods to examine problems from every angle until new solutions open up. We let intuition take the lead and establish a safe, permissive space where you dare to experiment. The method helps you bypass intellectual barriers, which often leads to reduced stress, deeper self-awareness, and new, unexpected perspectives.
Mapping - but much more fun
Understanding and accepting the current situation helps you to see which paths can lead forward. Together, we will find a mode of expression that suits you, where you can create an image or depiction that gives you perspective on your current situation.
The goals and the path there – clear and distinct
A picture is worth a thousand words. Using creative methods, you create a dream image that can drive you forward. When the path is visualised, the journey becomes much clearer. The methods are tailored to suit you.
Creativity and problem-solving
Problems are unwanted challenges. We use creativity to turn problems inside out and upside down to find new perspectives that unlock the way forward.
Book your studio session (or online)
Creative work sometimes requires physical space. I receive my clients in my inspiring studio on Fiskhamnsgatan in Gothenburg, where all materials are available. If you are not in Gothenburg, we can adapt the coaching and exercises for digital meetings.
