Online Art Therapy
We reach the unconscious, explore and heal… online.
I am always touched by how art can directly relieve the human spirit…even online!
At Online Heart ♥ & Art Therapy sessions are designed to honor and embrace diversity even behind a screen, as art has a transformative power.
Healing through art, I learn to observe, but also access to valuable insights of resilience and courage, enabling us to face life’s challenges.
Art, far beyond a simple form of expression, fulfils a basic human need that connects us to our inner truth and wisdom. With its ability to transcend the limitations of spoken language, art has the extraordinary ability to touch the depths of the heart with respect and safety.
“The point of art is not simply to express ourselves, but to create an external, concrete form in which the soul of our lives can be evoked and contained.”
Why Online Art Therapy
In individual online art therapy, creativity along with words are used so that each person in their own personal way and their own symbolic representation can reach into their unconscious and explore themselves, heal trauma and revisit their past, present and future.
No prior need for any painting skill is required, but it is useful to have a computer or other camera-enabled device.

Trust Heart ♥ & ART Therapy
Creation
With my hands and my whole body as a creative guide I connect with the unconscious and retrieve my images and symbols; I interpret them physically, mentally, psychically and emotionally and enrich my sense of self.
Self knowledge
I shed light on my inner world, discover and accept my unexplored aspects. I go into the source of my relational, emotional and behavioral patterns and transform them.
Relationships
I understand my personal life story in relation to the others and my loved ones, I strengthen the way of coexistence through the acceptance of myself and the diverse ways of being.
