The Soul Session
Supporting your Discovery, Awareness, Being.
Two words that I would use to describe the results of an Art Therapy Session are:
Empowering and Transformative
Creatively Expressing ourselves and our
personal life experiences is the start to new awareness and understanding.
We have the opportunity to uncover and create
how we want to be in the world,
the life we desire,
be true to our heart & soul.
The processes in Art Therapy invites us to gain clarity of who we are and what we truly desire in ourselves, our relationships and our life.
"The Soul Session" is all about the goals, intentions and areas of self or life you wish to "play" with.
What does a Session look like?
You come to the session with a goal or intention. This could be
-
life experiences
-
personal awareness and growth
-
relationships
-
decision making
-
trauma and grief
-
what is present for you right now
​
Using multi-modal practices to creatively express and discover what is in your body, heart, mind.
This may include:
-
Art Making - painting, collage, clay, sand tray, craft, pastels and more.
-
Movement and Gesture
-
Sound - instruments or voice
-
Being in Nature
-
Play based activities
​
The processes I introduce in an Art Therapy session invites you to explore through creative expression, discover the answers you have within and be you.
​
Gaining understanding, healing and transformation can be done with ease and grace in Art Therapy.

Do I have to be
Artistic and Creative?
Arts Therapy is about the process of creation, the meaning of expression, intentions and realizations. Everyone is creative. Everyone is a creation. Here is what our participants have to say when asked about being artistic and creative.
"Not in the artists sense of doing a painting, not as a skill. It's about letting go of your inhibitions"
"No.
You have to go back to being a child"
"That is like asking if you have to be flexible to do yoga?!"
"Potentially it is more beautiful than being artistic."
"Our artworks are not something to show off so much as something to learn from."
My way of Being.
Ohhh, and there is my Answer from Within Me!
"I got major stuff out of it. I come back in. I like the calm. There are joyful things to be excited about each week. I reconnect with me."
"It's good for me to talk about stuff. Through not knowing and allowing, I've shifted. I'm comfortable in my own skin."
