Art Therapy
Therapeutic Art Specialist
Self-discovery through active art-making and unpacking of the artwork narrative with the therapist, thereby bringing unconscious feelings and thoughts to light. Some clients find release of emotions onto paper highly therapeutic and their curious exploration without judgment very insightful. Often used for layering effect after dance movement session.
TRE© Trauma/Tension
Release Exercises
Certified TRE Provider/Facilitator
TRE® is a simple set of exercises that releases deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma. It safely activates a natural shaking or vibrating reflex mechanism for a neurological workout of the body, restoring one's nervous system. No processing of trauma narratives needed. Some clients liken the effects as comparable to a good meditation. Others use it regularly as stress management or selfcare practice to maintain vagal tone. More info.
Grace facilitated me to understand my unconscious triggers and issues. I learnt to trust myself in a deeper way. I celebrate being a different transformed person now, able to readily forgive, have a stillness within and pause to observe myself and others. Grace is intuitive and gifted as a companion. I am amazed at her work of healing and recovery through dance movement and art therapies.
