After graduating with a Master's in Art Therapy, I was stuck for awhile in the “forever student” role. I didn’t know how to stand in my own wisdom, so I kept searching for more teachers. I did ALL KINDS of therapy and growth work for 10 straight years!
And now, I’m ready for what’s next. I’ve taken off my therapist hat because I want to offer something different. It's a special offering just for women that combines the power of mindfulness, art making, collective wisdom and being seen.
Come experience the magic of Healing heART!

FAQ's about Healing heART
What will the classes be like?
Class begins with a discussion of our month's personal growth topic. The collective wisdom of the group takes us into deeper layers of meaning and understanding.
Then we create an intentional painting to help us feel into, see and embody the topic of the month. Michelle guides everyone in how to create this type of intentional painting.
Last, group members can share their painting and process with the group to receive reflections to help see the deeper meaning arising in their art process. Michelle shares writing prompts to help members continue to unfold the wisdom from their art in the coming week.
Is this therapy?
No, this is not considered "therapy" and is not a substitute for therapy. The group is meant to function outside the traditional umbrella of therapy by using a reflective art process to help students see, trust and embody their own wisdom. It is run by Michelle who has a Master's degree in Counseling and Art Therapy.
What if I'm going to miss a class?
Michelle provides a handout for each month's topic so you can still create your art therapy piece and share it with everyone in the online community.
Who will be in this class?
Healing heART is only meant for people who are truly interested in growth and healing and supporting others in doing the same. It is for people who are intrigued by how art can be used for healing and desire the deeper, more meaningful connections we are offering.
How do I prepare for my first night?
Make sure you have Zoom installed and a quiet space to be engaged. We show up with videos on ready to connect and contribute to the discussion.
What if this turns out to be not for me?
No problem :) We want everyone to be a good fit for this to be a safe space. MBodied is happy to transfer any remaining classes you have left to any other workshop or class we offer.
