    Laurel Justice Art 2

    Artist | Psychotherapist

    Laurel Justice

    Laurel Justice is a seeker, a maker, and a guide—someone who believes, deep in her bones, that creativity is how we find our way home. Based in the Colorado Rockies, she’s in the business of waking people up—to their own stories, their own wisdom, and the beautiful, untamed process of becoming. She’s an artist, psychotherapist, life coach, speaker, consultant, comedian, and designer of transformational experiences. She’s one of those people who refuses to be just one thing because when creating, connection and healing are the call, it’s never a one-size-fits-all career.
