Next to Body Psychotherapy I offer Creative Counselling for creative professionals with a project, both individual or in small group with the Project Reimagined Workshop.
Alongside mental and emotional processes, the body is as an important key to understanding where you are in respect to your creative project. You are invited to enter a state of curiosity and not-knowing, and move towards a more complete perception of what is. Together we investigate what obstructs and supports your creative ability, and aim to free you from unhelpful habitual images and behaviour. When the project is approached in a more embodied way, from a place of attention, openness and congruence, new images and ideas arise.
The Creative Counselling and Project Reimagined Workshop address professional film- and theater makers, writers and visual artists with a project; in research phase or looking to strengthen and invigorate the work.
