Welcome to the safe space for healing! My name is Marka and I'm a trained art therapist, psychologist, lecturer and Reiki practitioner Level 2 (Okuden). Also I assist new art therapists as they start their practice. You can get to know me better here.
Join me for transformative workshops, both online and offline in Amsterdam, where we explore emotional healing through art therapy, somatic techniques, and phototherapy. With over a decade of experience, I’ve overcome personal challenges like alexithymia, allergy, eating disorders, and body dysphoria, and now help others on their journey to self-worth, independence, and emotional balance. I support newby art therapists as a couch.
Using integrative methods such as bilateral drawing, mindfulness, and conscious movement, I create a safe, empowering space for self-expression and healing. We can take photos, paint, draw, and work intuitively with clay. Whether you're a budding art therapist or someone seeking personal growth, my events are designed to help you uncover hidden truths and lighten the emotional burdens of the body. Have confidence in your inner wisdom and intuition when expressing yourself.
This is your chance to connect with your inner strength, foster resilience, and embrace your authentic Self.
At the deepest level, the creative process and the healing process arise from a single source. When you are an artist, you are a healer; a wordless trust of the same mystery is the foundation of your work and its integrity. // Rachel Naomi Remen
