the Creative Awakenings
2025 Mentorship and Training

How thrilling would it be to offer inspiring transformational expressive arts experiences for your clients, while also infusing your life and career with creativity and joy?

I am busy behind the scenes, preparing for the 15th-anniversary of the Creative Awakenings Mentorship program, designed especially to empower creative visionary women leaders like you!

Be sure to sign up for the waitlist to be first in line for early access to our exciting launch! As a special treat, you’ll receive an inspiring video titled “A Few of My Favorite Things,” where I share some secret sauce to ignite your creativity and spark innovation.

LUV NOTE: Working with Sheri, I not only learned how to facilitate an expressive arts group but also learned why this is such important and healing work for all involved.

I experienced so much personal transformation during our course and I cannot wait to facilitate this kind of opportunity for growth with others! I am so grateful to Sheri as my mentor for sharing her wisdom and expertise!

WindWalkers in Carbondale

Join Laura Irman, LMFT a Pathfinders grief therapist, and Sheri Gaynor, LCSW, Advanced Eponaquest Equine Psychotherapist and Registered Expressive Arts Therapist, for a day of honoring grief with the WindWalkers Herd. 

Honoring your grief with a horse as a partner, in the beauty of nature, supports your grief process and restores a sense of hope. As sentient beings, horses are highly intuitive and have the ability to support a humang healing experience. Horses teach us the art of emotional agility and offer a non-judgmental space to explore feelings and emotions while providing grounding, comfort, and peace.
