A Creative Space for Connection and Reflection
Art therapy groups and courses invite you to step away from daily routines and spend time in a calm, supportive, and inspiring environment. Sessions are held at my studio in the Abbotsford Convent, or I can travel to client head offices, workplaces, or chosen venues to deliver in-house programs for organisations and private groups. Alternatively, venues within the Abbotsford Convent can also be arranged for group sessions.
Past workshops have included staff and community-based creative programs with a focus on connection, creativity, wellbeing, creative mindfulness, and team-building through shared creative experiences.
Each session offers you a chance to engage in the creative process through painting, collage, sculpture, movement, or writing. You don’t need any art experience — just curiosity and openness. Together, we explore how creativity can support reflection, reconnection, and new perspectives.
Why Join a Group Workshop?
Art therapy group workshops offer a unique opportunity to explore creativity in a calm, supportive, and reflective environment.
They can help you:
- explore emotions through creative expression
- gain new perspectives on stress, challenges, or life experiences
- experience calm, balance, and restoration
- connect with others in a supportive group setting
- feel a sense of belonging through shared creative activity
- deepen self-awareness through reflection and creativity
Many participants describe these sessions as a “weekly art retreat” — a dedicated space to pause, recharge, and express themselves freely.
Who Can Benefit?
Art therapy workshops and courses are open to people of all ages, genders, cultural backgrounds, and abilities. They can be especially supportive for those experiencing stress, anxiety, burnout, depression, grief, loss, major life transitions, trauma impacts, or physical health challenges.
They are also suitable for individuals seeking a calm, creative space for reflection, wellbeing, and personal growth.
Locations & Format
Workshops are delivered at my studio in the Abbotsford Convent in Melbourne, a light-filled creative space surrounded by gardens and a vibrant arts community.
I also offer corporate art therapy workshops in Melbourne, delivered in-house at workplaces, organisations, or private group venues. Sessions can also be facilitated at the Abbotsford Convent for organisations or private groups who wish to use the studio space.
All workshops are run in small groups to ensure a supportive, contained, and meaningful experience. Create an atmosphere of trust, inclusion, and connection.
