►MANDALAS Gestalt Art Therapy
Workshop objectives:
Creating mandalas can indeed have therapeutic benefits and promote relaxation and well-being. Mandalas are intricate and symmetrical patterns that often originate from spiritual and cultural practices, particularly in Hinduism and Buddhism. In recent years, they have been adopted in various therapeutic settings due to their potential psychological benefits.
- The artistic techniques involved in creating mandalas using a wide range of artistic materials.
- Investigate and experiment with the creation of mandalas and the process in the Gestalt Art therapy session.
- Have the opportunity to practice with this tool, because when you draw or paint your mandala, you are making a portrait of your unconscious self in a particular moment in your life, and when you carefully observe your creation, it can provide an amazing insight in a deep level (Susanne F Fincher)
- Learn how to present this art tool to your clients in Counselling Sessions.
- Discover the spiritual transformative power of the mandala

►DREAM WORK Gestalt Art Therapy
" The dreams are the symbolic narration of an unconscious reality"
Dreams are studied through Psychology and neuroscience, memory processes during REM sleep. The existing neuroscientific evidence suggests that we are almost certainly capable of learning during dreams and that learning may therefore be one of dreams’ primary adaptive functions. (Isaac Roberts)

· Using creativity, expressive creations, and imagination, participants will connect with their dream projections.

►INNER CHILD Gestalt Art Therapy
In popular psychology and analytical psychology, the inner child is an individual's childlike aspect. It includes what a person learned as a child, before puberty. The inner child is often conceived as a semi-independent subpersonality subordinate to the waking conscious mind.
Psychologist Carl Gustav Jung (1875–1961) originated the concept in his divine child archetype. New Thought spiritual leader Emmet Fox (1886–1951) called it the "wonder child". The concept of the inner child was further developed by husband and wife team Vivian and Arthur Janov in primal therapy, expounded in the books The Primal Scream (1970) and The Feeling Child (1973).
During this day you will:
Work with the meaning of the "nurturing parent" and "protective parent" within "inner family work" to care for a person's physical, emotional, creative, and spiritual needs.
We will review the concept of the "critical parent within", and provide you tools for managing it.
investigate the unresolved childhood experiences and the lingering effects of childhood dysfunction: the sum of mental-emotional memories stored in the subconscious from conception through pre-puberty.
Through the Gestalt Art Therapy approach each participant will access, in a safe mode, their childhood memories, being witness to the stories of their origins in childhood, and participants will find some different proposals for the healing process.
Recovery and support of Your Inner Child using Gestalt art therapy techniques.
Review of the connection between Attachment Theory and the Inner child work.
Discover how the unfinished business of the inner child will be affecting the adult lives of your clients.
Support your clients in working with their inner child.
Work with your inner child, to be ready to support your clients' inner child.
Working with the inner child in counselling provides a range of emotional benefits for clients, facilitating deeper self-understanding and healing. Here are some key emotional benefits:
Emotional Release: Addressing unresolved feelings from childhood allows clients to release long-held emotions, providing a cathartic experience that can reduce stress and anxiety.
Healing Past Traumas: Engaging with the inner child can help clients process and heal from traumatic experiences, leading to a sense of closure and relief.
Building Self-Compassion: This approach encourages clients to nurture their inner child with kindness and understanding, fostering self-compassion and reducing self-criticism.
Rebuilding Trust: As clients reconnect with their inner child, they rebuild trust in themselves, fostering a greater sense of security and confidence.
Strengthening Emotional Regulation: By addressing and acknowledging deep-seated emotions, clients can learn healthier ways to manage and regulate their feelings.
Enhancing Relationships: As clients understand their inner child’s needs and vulnerabilities, they often improve their relationships with others, promoting empathy and authentic connections.
►COLLAGE Gestalt Art Therapy
The use of figurative and metaphorical language during the creation using collage techniques helps to make changes and implement new options within the client's process, without having to work directly with the confrontation of the problem or conflict. Through collage, clients objectify their conflicts to put them in a different perspective and open future channels of communication.
Creating collages with paper can indeed be a therapeutic and beneficial activity when working with individuals and groups in an emotional support setting. Collage-making provides a creative outlet for individuals to express their emotions, thoughts, and experiences in a non-verbal and visually symbolic manner. This can be particularly useful in group therapy or support settings where participants might have different comfort levels with sharing verbally.
Here's how collage-making with paper can be therapeutic when working with groups in an emotional support context:
- Self-expression:
Collage-making allows participants to communicate their feelings and experiences through images, colors, textures, and compositions. This can help individuals express emotions they may find difficult to put into words.
- Non-verbal communication:
Some participants might struggle with verbal expression due to the nature of their emotions or their comfort levels. Collage-making provides an alternative means of communication that can help bridge this gap.
- Catharsis:
The act of selecting images and arranging them in a collage can be cathartic. Participants can explore their feelings, release pent-up emotions, and experience a sense of relief and release.
- Empowerment:
Creating something tangible and visually meaningful can enhance participants' sense of accomplishment and empowerment, which can positively impact their self-esteem and confidence.
- Metaphor and symbolism:
Collages often involve selecting images that symbolize feelings or experiences. This can encourage participants to reflect on the deeper meanings behind their choices and gain insights into their emotional states.
- Group cohesion:
Collaborative collage-making can foster a sense of unity and camaraderie among group members. Sharing the creative process and the final pieces can create a bond and mutual understanding among participants.
- Mindfulness and focus:
Engaging in the process of selecting images, cutting, arranging, and gluing requires concentration and focus. This mindfulness can help participants stay present and grounded in the moment.
- Distraction and relaxation:
Artistic activities like collage-making can provide a break from distressing thoughts or overwhelming emotions, offering participants a chance to relax and shift their focus.
- Narrative development:
Collages can be used as visual narratives to explore personal stories, challenges, and growth. Participants can arrange images to create a visual representation of their journey.
- Safe exploration:
Collage-making can create a safe space for exploring difficult or complex emotions without feeling directly exposed. Participants can choose how much or how little to reveal through their collage.
When incorporating collage-making into individual and/or group therapy or emotional support sessions, we provide a supportive environment, clear instructions, and opportunities for participants to share their collages if they feel comfortable.
During this workshop, you will:
Know how to design the collage-work: kind of collages.
- Paper collage
– One of the more basic forms of collage. Various pieces of paper are gathered and put together to create a unique collage strictly from paper products.
- Photomontage

Discover how this tool will support the psychological process, revealing meaningful information about the client’s inner world.
Collages are visual artworks that are created by selecting magazine images, textured papers, or ephemera; cutting or altering these elements, and arranging and attaching them to a support such as paper or cardboard”. This kind of creation could be compared with clients' lives and patterns.
Uncovering the power of the creation with symbols, also the act of cutting and ripping images and gluing them together can be cathartic for some clients.
Offer options to the client to communicate in a new language, collage art therapy work involves unconscious levels related to archetypes and the collective unconscious.
