Welcome! I’m Beth, a professional watercolor artist, Certified Trauma-Informed Coach, and founder of Empowered Pathways for Healing. My journey is a blend of creativity, healing, and personal growth, and I’m passionate about sharing it with others.

For over 18 years, I’ve nurtured a career as a self-taught artist, creating vibrant, transparent watercolor paintings that capture the beauty of life’s fleeting moments. Through custom commissions and workshops, I’ve had the privilege of helping others discover their creative voice, believing that watercolor—like life—is rich with unpredictability and beauty.

Alongside my art, I’ve traveled a deeply personal path of healing. My experiences with addiction, betrayal trauma, mental health challenges, recovery, and spiritual trauma have shaped who I am today. These life lessons, coupled with certifications including Certified Trauma-Informed Coach, ICF Member, C-SASI, ADOH Certified Peer Facilitator, and training in Nonviolent Communication (NVC), inspire my work as a self-development coach. As a life development coach, my goal is to support my clients in reconnecting with their inner wisdom and the world of endless possibility. In both art and healing, I believe we are all practicing the art of being human—a continuous journey of self-discovery, growth, and connection. Whether I’m guiding someone to find joy through art or helping them come home to themselves through coaching, my mission is the same: to create a safe, compassionate space for growth, healing, and transformation.

Thank you for being here. Whether you’re exploring my art or considering coaching, I look forward to being part of your journey. Together, let’s create something beautiful—on paper and in life.
