Dr. Yanina began her career as a psychologist working with children from pre-school to high school and helping parents raise their children in a healthier way. Her career has evolved throughout the years and she has observed how art has the potential to affect the emotions, psychological states and mood of people. Similarly, through coaching and numerous conversations with artists, she has witnessed how art making can be used as a tool to ease one’s tensions, release anxieties, as well as, a powerful and influential way to share the artist’s voice with the world.
Her insight and understanding of the psycho-emotional issues many artists experience has given her the opportunity to identify practical mindset and emotional wellness resources artists may benefit from when dealing with their art career in a healthier manner. She believes that artists who maintain an optimal wholeness balance (Mind, Body, Soul) can enjoy healthier lives while making a greater impact in this world. She enjoys developing seminars, programs and resources that are relevant to the thriving contemporary artist especially brainstorming with artists about their career development and emotional well-being.
