Some Recent Tangles

I have been holding a few small classes, with an enthusiastic bunch of Tanglers. It is always a joy to experience the excitement as the calm and contagious tangling happens.
Here is my last class.

And here is my large ZIA: Zentangle Inspired Art, which I did as a piece for my first art therapy class. I am posting it again, as it didn't work well from my ipad photo. The image represents myself as I enter the program.

And Sadie says, "What you looking at?!" She is such a happy energetic dog. Can you find some tangle patterns in this picture?

Services

As a professional art therapist, and registered psychotherapist, I provide therapy services.

I use art therapy to support the expression of beliefs, emotions and experiences which are difficult to verbalize, using different art methods. These methods include paint, pastels, clay, movement, dance, drumming and more.

Using an eclectic approach, focusing on the client's goals, needs, and utilizing a supportive relationship, I integrate art therapy, mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy, solution focused therapy, and sensorimotor psychotherapy.

I use art as therapy especially through the process of Zentangle. Zentangle is a fun activity - that costs little in money but reaps great rewards with peace, inspiration and calmness.
