Art therapy and therapeutic painting for children and adults

MY GOAL

As a qualified art therapist and relaxation therapist, I help children overcome their difficulties at school, manage their stress/ anxiety and regulate their emotions, in order to improve their overall learning at school, as well as their life.

MY PRACTICE

My support is adapted to the specific needs of each child in a caring and supportive environment, and is based on the methods of:

- art therapy and the expressive creative process
- medical relaxation techniques (RPMJ, autogenic training, visualizations, breathing techniques, etc.)
- Montessori pedagogy
- the psychological theory of transactional analysis
- the methodology of British paediatrician and psychoanalyst Dr Donald Winnicott

Creative techniques used include acrylic painting, oil painting, zentangle drawing, watercolour, watercolour pastels and pencils, mix-media, collage, structure paste, monotype printing using linocut, gel plates, stencils and stamps, scrapbooking, creative journal, crochet, weaving....

MY COMPETENCIES

I have trained in art therapy, relaxation and stress management techniques, and transactional analysis and possess a diploma as a Montessori teacher.

I have been an art therapist for 10 years, working in schools, institutions and private homes. I support children and adults. Currently, I am developing my activity in my private studio in Saint-Jean in Geneva.

I also possess a bachelor in science (Swiss engineering school) in the field of multimedia, as well as a DAS in visual communication. Subsequently, I held manager positions public organisations and private companies.

Good day! I am an artist and teacher with over 12 years of experience. If you have long wanted to start doing art or just to understand it and did not know where to start, I would be happy to be your guide to this wonderful world! I teach academic drawing and painting and the basics of composition for any level of training. In drawing I emphasize constructive drawing, the development of plasticity, and knowledge of anatomy and perspective. We will learn different materials from pencil and charcoal to oil. In the summer we will practice working with landscape in the open air. If you are interested in contemporary art, we will study modern techniques, working with modern materials, and the theory and philosophy of contemporary art. I can help you prepare a portfolio for art school admissions. I work with students from the age of 13 upwards Classes are held at the student's home in Geneva and the surrounding area. Theoretical classes are available online. Classes are held in English and Russian. Feel free to write me if you have any additional questions! See you soon!

Hello, Being certified of the ECG in the Visual Arts section and having followed the majority of my schooling in this field, I wish to give drawing lessons to those who wish to improve in this field.

I can teach you the techniques of sketching, observation and reporting in 2D and 3D, notions of perspectives, light and shadow, proportions like those of the human body, etc. I want to give my lessons in a feeling of sharing knowledge acquired during my studies, moving away as far as possible from a school atmosphere.

These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting. Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive. The objective of this training is to be able to: - Analyze and dissect a text - Create, develop and embody a character - Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play - Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity (...) Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives. PLACES : - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm).
