About & Contact

Welcome! I am so honored to have you visit me here in my online creative home. 

The Creative Healing Studio was born out of my own desire to combine the many different healing modalities that I have learned over the last 9 years with my true love; art. I have found that creativity is a powerful portal to allow you to gain access to your soul. Having that connection with your soul shows you your unique path to healing.
The Creative Healing Studio mission is:

Inspiring women to embrace their creativity

Guiding them to find their own creative path to healing

Supporting them as they take their creative healing journey


About Michelle
I am a Certified Holistic Health and Wellness Coach, accredited by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners. I received my training from the  Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York City. Here I studied with some of the leading authorities in nutrition and wellness like Dr. Andrew Weil, Deepak Chopra, Dr. John Douillard, Geneen Roth and Julia Cameron to name a few.

I am also an Emotional Release Practitioner specializing in assisting clients get to the root of a core issue and clearing it out at the cellular level. I have studied hypnosis, living foods, Reiki, meditation and spirituality to round out my education.

As a Health and Wellness Coach I was feeling that something was missing. I had an aha moment one evening at a networking event when an artist introduced herself to me. I was shocked when the words, “That’s what I should have been.” came pouring out of my mouth. That was the missing piece. 

I am an artist at heart. Ever since I could remember I was drawing, designing, and surrounding myself with color. Somewhere along the line I had decided that being an artist was impractical and I probably wasn’t good enough anyway and I shut down that part of my life. That night at the networking event changed everything for me. 

I began getting back in touch with my right brain again. I was journaling, painting, drawing, and photographing. I was alive again. I began to see that through my art I was taken deep into my soul and confronting limiting beliefs I had been holding onto. I began to study intuitive painting and I realized my work in Emotional Release fit together perfectly with creative work. It was a full circle moment. 

I continue to learn and experiment and have recently become a Certified Soul Art® Guide. By combining creativity and health coaching I began Creative Healing Coaching and I’m thrilled to be able to support women in creating optimum health in all areas of their lives. 

On a personal note, I am a wife and a mother to 5 beautiful boys ages 9 to 19. I live in the suburbs of Chicago and can often be found at a baseball game, soccer game, basketball game, or wrestling meet. We are a fun household filled with children and friends not to mention our 2 dogs, 2 rats, and our little bird.
