Beginner Art Therapy Workshops
These small group workshops are designed to help you to take a breath, connect in with your heart and nurture your creativity in a supportive group environment. You do not need any art experience or skill to attend art therapy. Art therapy is not about painting a perfect picture, it is about your expression, your ability to connect in with your heart and allow whatever you need to be expressed to come out onto the paper.

Vision Board Workshop
Vision Board Workshop (2 x hours)
Come join me for this beautiful workshop where you will spend quality time with likeminded souls discovering what it is your heart truly desires.
Vision Boards are a beautiful way to set clear intentions on what you want to attract into your life.
To do this we must “let go” of all the things that no longer serve us to "let in" what we truly desire.
Vision boards aren’t just about what “things” you want in your life, they are more powerful if you focus on how you want to “feel” and that will be our focus for this workshop.
We will do a powerful guided meditation connecting to your higher self to help pinpoint exactly what you need to let go of to bring more of what you want into your life.
Then we will create!
All materials and cork board will be included as well as herbal tea, light snacks, good music and good company!
This is an in-person class held at my home art studio in Benowa on the Gold Coast.
Cost: $65
Duration: 2 x hours

Mandala Workshop
Mandala Workshop (2 x hours)
During this powerful workshop we will discover the beautiful world of Mandala’s, helping you to express the unexpressed, get in touch with your inner world and create with intention.
This is a beginner art therapy experience where you will embark on a journey of self-discovery and learn to use expressive art as a tool for your overall well-being, offering a sanctuary for the mind, body, and spirit.
Guided meditation will also assist you to slow down your busy mind so you can connect in with your heart to hear your own internal wisdom before we create.
Mandala’s have a beautiful way of showing us what we can’t usually ‘see’ providing a space for self-reflection, understanding and growth.
During this workshop we will focus on creating a self-reflection Mandala – Meeting yourself where you are at, letting go of control, perfection, comparison and allowing your mandala to flow freely.
Give yourself permission to switch off from all the distractions of the outside world and connect in with your beautiful heart.
By accessing our creative expression we are unlocking parts of ourselves that have been hidden away waiting to be discovered and embraced.
A complete take home creativity kit and instruction workbook is included.
