ABOUT BLOSSOM UP
Florentine (Flora) is a licensed mental health counselor with a background in art and somatic therapy. Her work has always centered on helping others connect to themselves through creativity, embodiment, and emotional awareness.
Her journey with mindful flowers began when she discovered the innate healing power of flowers—a gentle yet profound way to shift from the racing mind into the grounded presence of the body. As she began working with flowers, Florentine found that arranging blooms allowed her to release worries and drop into a state of creative flow, where self-expression feels effortless and deeply nourishing.
Through this process, she experienced a sense of awe and harmony—a reflection of how the natural beauty of flowers mirrors our own inner beauty. In every stem, petal, and color, she found an invitation to reconnect with her inner peace, calm, and pure essence.
Now, Florentine weaves this practice into her therapeutic work, guiding others to experience the same sense of grounded creativity and mindful connection that flowers so naturally inspire. Her mindful flower sessions invite participants to see their arrangements not just as art, but as mirrors of their inner selves—reminders that beauty and balance already exist within.
