“Hi Karen I booked paid, and looking forward to next group work. I have been going over all we delved into over last six weeks and looking deep within to where its taken me and I have to say! it has been deep and dark at times but more so – so much growth that is now moving through me, – lol I guess I will always be a work in progress but, I am beginning to feel my own power, truth and strength to just be, just be me . Thankyou for your work in providing a safe space for us to work out all the highs and lows of our life. Your love and compassion is truly a light that shines opening the doors to show the way” – Amanda
“I went to this gathering awhile ago and I still think about this experience a few times a week! I wish I lived in Tassie for the opportunity to go again.
Before this, I had not found anything like it. I lived in Sydney before, travelled the world, and now live in the states. Let me tell you: This kind of class is rare!
After many years of doing internal work, brain-training, and psychological analysis, I have I always thought it would be nice to break in with a group-facilitated art experience, and this was absolutely perfect.
Karen herself is a wonderful human. It is clear she is meant to hold groups in processing through art and connection.
She makes room for everyone who is there, and I genuinely enjoyed having her as our guiding presence!
She introduced us to our materials (in case we didn’t know), we then had an unbiased, small & sweet opening ceremony, and she guided us through suggestions of somatic meditation throughout the process. It was well-balanced.
At the end we spoke of what we created if we wished. For me, the process was appropriately cathartic (as I expected). But the best part was that I found the experience to be more peaceful and grounded than I had imagined going in. I think this really speaks to Karen’s thoughtfulness and the intentions for the group!
If you are considering it, I highly highly recommend! “ – Holly Huber 2023
Thanks again. The course (Expressive Loss & Grief) was so wonderful; it really stirred things up and I processed so much and got so much out of it. I feel so much stronger and more capable in facing the future. – K
Thank you for creating this space where I could safely and gently reconnect to a missing part of myself . The Ceremonial Art Healing Centre is helping me reconnect to a part of myself which I am now bringing back to life. I didn’t even remember that artistic expression was once a big part of who I am. Now this authentic part of me is miraculously awakening. – Yining
Karen, I enjoyed meeting you and experiencing your wonderful session and sacred space. I’m sure I will be back to Hobart in the future and would love to keep in touch. Best wishes for you and your family and your important service – Leon from Adelaide.
Karen created a tranquil and healing space where I felt safe and encouraged to connect to myself and others through the ceremonial transitions, meditation and intuitive art. Highly recommended! – Zoe
Ceremonial Art Healing Centre is a sacred space to bring healing, reflection, tranquility into your inner world. The sessions I attended shifted my energy which helped me in all areas of my life. Karen is very friendly, accommodating and knows how to hold space. – Chetna
I am grateful I attended another meditation and intuitive art session at the Ceremonial Art Healing Centre. This experience surprised me in an unexpected and emotional way. Thanks to Karen, I felt safe and non-judged to express this intensive feeling through art and became lighter in the end. Here is a little something I wrote:
Resentment, this word sends my mind in clouds
Heavy clouds which lead to a tornado storm
Dark, blue, rushing towards me
The longer I linger
The deeper I fall into
The harder I resist
The darker I find myself in
Only the repetitive black circles can comfort me in an odd way
Screaming, screaming
Yet comes a red beast
A beast that no one wants to be around
Sharp teeth from the sky and the earth, cage it in
“I want to be out! I want to be heard!”
Banging and banging on the relentlessness
The beast’s anger fades away
Where sadness takes over
The storm shows its mercy
Allowing the blue sky to come out slowly
Light, and there is light sparkling here and there again. – Zoe
Dearest Karen, I must say a massive thank you for our art therapy healing session. it was just wonderful to take the time to just BE. For someone who is hands on and visual, I loved the (ceremony) energetic cleansing journey that you took us on before we actually began our painting session. I woke up this morning with the feeling that I’m needing to do a detox to assist the evolution of my healing journey and what I allowed the session to unblock inside of me. For this I am truly grateful, and I am certain to pass your details on to others.

The Ceremonial Art Healing Centre is a beautiful sacred space in the heart of Hobart. I had the opportunity to participate in a group session with Karen where we explored intuitive art practice, meditation and ceremony. I would highly recommend a session to anyone looking to nurture their soul. – Nicole
I highly recommend this soulful course. I really enjoyed the meditative approach to the art and felt like I pushed through some barriers. It was interesting how my brain processed things differently when I was able to be calm, still and reflective. This course gave me some insight, got me a little closer to understanding myself. I highly recommend this peaceful and grounding experience. – Steph
Uniqueness. Powerful in a loving way. Strength in delicacy. Veronica.
