Expressive Sessions

The metaphor of a rhizome reflects how we all have a unique expression, and we all intersect at the same rhizomatic root (the human experience). Yet, each one of us is a rhizome on our own, and we burst out with a multitude of expressions throughout our journey in life. It is through the development of this base idea, reinforced by my expertise in the field of art therapy, somatic-based therapies and clinical trauma-informed counseling, and my lived experience and research in indigenous somatic-based healing practices from my region of the Arabian Peninsula that this idea of holding space for Expressive Practices Sessions emerged. 

My role is to support you, your community members, or even a team of an organization to get to know all your multiplicities, your expressions, and use them as pathways to trace you back to the root of your rhizome. To reconnect with your creative center from a somatic-centered lens, so you can enhance your wellbeing, and allow it to inspire all areas of your life. Together we will learn to move and grow as the rhizome does: with awareness of both stillness and motion at the same time. Building awareness is an important component and we develop it through somatic-centered art making which engages our mind, body and emotional connections.

Within a safe, trauma informed environment you can explore your wellness by allowing your creativity to grow. Through a series of goal oriented somatic-centered expressive arts workshops, using materials as a tool, collaboratively we aim to inspire participants to improve coping, communication, and socio- emotional skills.

Expressive Practice Sessions can be set up as a single workshop or part of a series. Often a series will consist from a range of at least 6 to 8 sessions, in order to be able to track the developments of goals set by participants.
