Hello! I’m Nina Violet Risch, and I’m thrilled to share a bit about my journey. As a Certified Professional Coach, Certified Whole Person Coach, Certified Trauma-Informed Coach, Certified Art Therapy Practitioner, and Certified Sound Therapy Practitioner, I’m passionate about guiding individuals toward healing and growth. Whether you're navigating trauma, grief, or simply seeking to enhance your art or well-being, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
As your dedicated Grief or Art Coach, I use a blend of creative arts therapy, sound therapy, and somatic techniques like EFT and Tapping, along with breathwork and grounding exercises. This holistic approach helps harmonize your thoughts and emotions, so you can embrace your strengths and turn challenges into uplifting experiences.
My unique coaching style draws on my diverse background in the healing and creative arts, so we explore both conscious and unconscious aspects to support a balanced, fulfilling life. I invite you to join me in this rewarding journey, where you can uncover deeper connections to yourself and others, especially in the aftermath of loss. Together, let’s create a positive path for your future!

Client Testimonials
"I felt supported and safe, and Nina helped me explore and understand my situation more with the right questions that opened up more insights to me. I had all the time and room that I needed within the session to go as deep into the topics as I needed." - Gigi
"I didn't really know what to expect going into my first coaching session, and Nina made it feel easy and natural. I enjoyed the way she guided me to learning more from myself, and in my own words, which I usually get lost in." - Mike
"Nina was very intentional about allowing me to be myself during the session, and she acknowledged when I came up with solutions on my own. Nina highlighted things that she perceived as strengths for me that I never paid attention to." - Kareem

Professional Experience
I was an art teacher for 15 years, an herbalist for 10, and a painter for most of my life. I came to coaching because I have been the go-to person for advice, mentorship, counseling, and motivation through many life experiences. Coaching was a natural transition, as I have worked with many clients, consulting on herbalism, education, and grief. As your dedicated coach, I facilitate transformative perspective shifts, helping you recognize which strategies are working well and which may need reevaluation. Together, we build a collaborative relationship to devise a new, purposeful path forward—one tailored to your vision and your personal and professional growth.
Coaching can be a light in the dark. It draws on the client's inner wisdom, strengths, values, and creativity to help them be their authentic selves. I facilitate people back to joy, balance, safety, and purpose.
