Welcome to a safe space to liberate, unleash and awaken your
Creative Magic
Hi! I’m Jamie ~ founder of The Human Arts Collective

I am committed to holding space for your wellness journey, supporting your introspective discoveries, and nurturing your playful curiosity, so you can unleash the inexhaustible well of story and creativity within you. When we feel safe to truly let down our guard and be seen in our expression, we invite others into our world. In doing so, we can deepen our connections, awaken our purpose, and share the unique gifts and talents we offer.
With a background in Human Services, Trauma and Resilience-Informed Creative Arts Therapy, and Storytelling across multiple mediums, along with training in embodied leadership, I design, mentor, and facilitate processes where our humanity is heard, seen, and valued.
I work with adults and children alike, both in group settings and 1:1, teaching classes, community building, directing creative projects, facilitating events, guiding meditations, introducing devising processes and unpacking story.
As I bring my inner child, lifelong student, and compassionate teacher to the table, I am excited to meet the many parts of you and welcome you to The Human Arts Collective.

Dear Human,
The Human Arts Collective was born from my journey of self-discovery and healing. Through storytelling and poetry, I learned to embrace what makes me uniquely human: my story, my struggles, and my creative gifts. I discovered that spaces which allowed me to freely express my innermost feelings and ideas were where my creativity truly flourished. In these safe spaces, my inner child took the reins, enabling me to play, be curious, and express freely.
I noticed others struggling with their own invisible challenges and the isolation that can bring. An essential part of our human condition is the desire to belong and be understood. As I nurtured my creativity and prioritized my well-being, I built relationships and projects where I was valued and celebrated for being myself.
Through The Human Arts Collective, you are given the support and space to realize your own creative gifts and potential while building meaningful connections with others. Here, you are encouraged to unleash (and discover) your creative expression, honor your inner child, and reclaim your authentic voice while making a meaningful impact only you can make.
We welcome you to join our community virtually and in-person in our mission othing, use this space to describe it in detail and tell us why we should make a purchase. Tap into your creativity. You’ve got this.
