Are you a painter, writer, musician or other type of creative person? Have you been struggling with feeling “blocked” in your ability to produce work? Can’t find the inspiration you need for your next piece? Do you put everything and everybody else before your creative work? Do you have skill, but lack passion? Do you have passion, but lack direction?

All of the above are very common woes of creative people. The fact that most creative work is done in isolation doesn’t help. Who is there to encourage you, nudge you forward, to tell you not to mow the lawn or clean the house instead? If you have been experiencing artistic block you don’t have to suffer alone. Artist-types tend to judge themselves harshly and a slump in productivity can cause self-esteem to plummet.

Mary Grider understands this problem intimately. She holds a master’s degree in counseling from Indiana Wesleyan University and a bachelor’s degree in fine arts from Herron School of Art, Indianapolis. As both artist and counselor, Mary’s understanding, personal experience, and professional skill combine to help you find the inspiration, inner strength, and personal resolve you need to break through the barriers that keep you from doing what you love!
