About Creative Expansion

Tsafi Lederman and Jenny Stacey have created a wide-ranging programme of professional and personal development workshops building an international community of learning.

They have developed and use the Embodied Creative Method. Embodied Coaching focuses on two primary pathways: body process and exploring image and metaphor using the arts. Both these pathways act as a bridge between implicit and explicit knowledge allowing layers of meaning to emerge that may not be in conscious awareness.

Their workshops include reflection and understanding of the psychological and emotional dimensions of coaching and help develop skills in working at relational depth. Both Tsafi and Jenny have extensive experience of post graduate training of coaches and psychotherapists, creating a safe environment for exploration. With Creative Expansion people discover their creative potential and use these qualities for personal growth as well as enhancing their resourcefulness in their professional and business spheres.
Understanding and being able to use the ECM adds a new approach and expands your coaching practice.

Tsafi and Jenny have jointly published Embodied Coaching: Pathways to Implicit Knowledge Using the Arts and Somatic Process in Coaching Today (2004) and contributed Working with Shame using Embodied Coaching in 101 Supervision Techniques, Approaches, Enquiries, and Experiments (2020).
