Change Life From Within
a place to be you
Hello there and welcome!
After a few years hiatus, I’m returning — with a creative, intuitive focus. I'm blending my inner knowing with my wild-hearted creativity — the kind that speaks through color, gesture, and quiet moments beyond words. That asks nothing of you — not perfection, not expertise, not even certainty.
I’m offering ways to express freely, listen deeply, and rediscover what’s already waiting inside you.
This is for women — all women. The busy, the weary, the doubting, the burdened, the grieving, the curious. Women who want something that feels real, true and makes them come alive.
Will you join me?
Your pace, your way
Wise & Spirited Women Support Group, The Painted Wild, and True Heart are programs that offer community, creative exploration, and individual guidance.
These offerings are ways to connect —
with yourself,
with what truly matters,
with other women walking their own path.
This is different from the norm — it's not about following a leader and doing it their way. It’s about allowing yourself to listen to what’s stirring beneath the surface — even if you can’t yet name it.

Wise & Spirited
A Support Group For Women
This is a supportive space for women to thoughtfully connect with their voice, their needs, and the fullness of who they are becoming.
It is not group therapy.
It is a place to speak honestly, to be heard with compassion, and to be seen without judgment.

The Painted Wild
Honoring the language of the body & heart.
This experience offers space to reconnect with the wisdom of your body and hear the quiet call of your heart.
As women we through life meeting the needs of others while overriding our own. Over time, we become disconnected—from how we feel, what we need, and even who we are becoming.
Over the course of three spacious hours, we’ll explore what’s stirring beneath the surface: what you may be carrying, what’s ready to be released, and what’s quietly asking to be heard.
Using curiosity and creative expression, we’ll give shape to this exploration using paint and paper — not to create a beautiful piece of art, but to open a space where there's liberation from self pressure and a clearer sense of what matters most is revealed.

What I value most about Terri is her heart and how she uses it to listen
One of the things I value most about Terri is her heart and how she uses it to listen. She doesn't just hear what you're saying. She tunes into what's underneath and reflects it back with so much clarity and care that you can't help but feel seen, heard, and understood.
She also has an incredible artistic eye and ability. Whether she's creating, guiding, or supporting you through a process, her work is thoughtful, beautifully done, and always infused with meaning and spirit. She brings so much positive intention and warmth to everything she creates.
But what makes Terri stand out is how fully and authentically she shows up. No pretense. No performance. Just someone who is deeply present, kind, compassionate and giving in the truest sense. Being around her reminds you what real, genuine connection feels like.
If you get the chance to work with Terri, you'll see what I mean. She's definitely the real deal, and I feel blessed to know and to have worked with her.

Terri was able to create program where each therapist could solely focus on themselves
With each conversation, she provokes fresh perspective and opens new pathways for growth and creative direction
My business partner and I wanted to integrate self-care and team building for our staff and Terri was the perfect person.
As therapists, we pour so much of our energy into others and we wanted a way for our staff to reconnect with themselves and pour into their own cups.
Terri was able to provide this through her intention flags program where each of our therapists had the opportunity to solely focus on themselves and what what speaking to them through various forms of art pieces putting them on paper.
Everyone left feeling more inspired, motivate and focused.
It was just what we needed for both bonding and "me-time."
