Kind Words
“I want to thank Lindsey again for the wonderful impact she has had on me. Since I met Lindsey, I knew I wanted to work with her. If there is one word to describe Lindsey, it is grace.
I cannot tell you how much I looked forward each week to Lindsey’s unique classes. Each of the weeks I experienced new techniques and opportunities.
I love Lindsey’s style, her soft and caring demeanor, her way of encouraging and empowering and the effort she puts forth in making each class unique and special.
The class is a priceless gem. Thank you so very much. Soli dei gloria.”
—Dolores Jacoby, Ph.D.
“Magical and nurturing session. You are one of the most genuine and intuitive people I know and it was deeply moving to experience your work. You held the space with so much care and intention that I was able to fully let go and trust, even when I felt most vulnerable. I have spent years looking at and nursing the same wounds with what feels like very little progress. Through your work I was able to see things differently. I am in the midst of a big life change and I had been feeling so stuck and confused.
Your session was like being thrown a life vest. This powerful yet gentle work helped me see so clearly the hurdles before me. The fears and beliefs that I had allowed to define me and hold me back from my true purpose and path. So many connections were made. You helped me see that I already have everything I need to achieve my goals I just have to believe in myself. It was truly the first time I left a therapy session feeling whole and full of hope. I cannot thank you enough and I would definitely love to work with you again.”

“Our session gave me clarity and enthusiasm for a life phase that has felt nebulous and confusing. It's like someone just flipped the light on and I can see exactly what it is I'm going through. Not only that, but I have a very clear sense of how I'd like to move forward, both in my relationships and my creative life. Her intuition and knowledge guided us to so many "aha!" moments, and her sense of humor made the whole process an absolute joy. I couldn't have asked for a better way to start my new year. I'll be referring anyone and everyone to see Lindsey Wayland.”

“It has been absolute pleasure to be a part of three classes with Lindsey Wayland.
When I stepped into the Beginner's Calligraphy class my fear immediately faded. It had been many years since I had placed myself in a creative, artistic class, much less, a handwriting class!! Each class member was greeted by a smiling young woman with the warmest of greetings and we were told to look for our name at the tables. There was my name in the most beautiful calligraphy form I had ever dreamt of.
With the tools and clipboard full of practice sheets we learned the basics of calligraphy including how to stop and care for ourselves by massaging our hands. At the end of the day I had already decided to go on to the Intermediate class.
Practice, practice and more practice and with each class our tools increased and learning the nuances of different scripts. Exemplars, What??
Calligraphy is an amazing art and it is obvious that it requires dedication, focus and desire. Lindsey made our classes interesting, informative and with encouragement our writing improved. We laughed, listened and learned all that can be done with calligraphy.
So today I took my third class with Lindsey and we were able to use our calligraphy, creativity and a lot of paints, brushes and cool old typewriters to construct our own Holiday cards. Each class has been better than the last and it leaves you wanting more. Lindsey has a way of creating an atmosphere that brings talent, encouragement and art to each class. I am forever grateful to Lindsey for inspiring us to keep coming back.
Thank you Lindsey Wayland!!!”

“Lindsey brings out the beauty in this ancient art form with passion, grace and skill. In times of constant rushing and digital typing, her class is an oasis of mindfulness and practice. I enjoyed every minute of her company and her teachings.”

“Your way of being present and supporting all of us is quite remarkable. I appreciate you so much. Our group just a wonderful experience for me. I wanted to catch it on paper before it slipped away. I am sure there is a poem in there, it is still swimming around in my mind. I am so appreciating your offerings and getting to see and connect with folks in the group.
I felt integration like hands reached into my ribcage and held my heart and washed it clean. It wasn’t dirty, it felt like it was covered in others’ feelings.
Thank you, thank you, thank you....”
—Gail Hines, artist & psychotherapist
“My private sessions are everything I imagined them to be and much more. There was no pressure or sense of ‘right’ or ‘wrong.’ Lindsey encourages creativity. All her suggestions are positive and aimed at making the student feel confident and proud of whatever they accomplish. I felt a measure of success almost immediately. Practicing has created the most calming, meditative moments I have experienced in years. I am so thankful for Lindsey’s careful, educated guidance.”

“What a Great Delight to have Lindsey here and for me (and all) able to experience her and her vast trove of talent, with which she is so generous! What Luck!!!”
