What you will experience.
You will be grounded by a human-centred and trauma-informed therapeutic approach to well being, that is focused on authentic presence, intuitive weaving, deep listening, constructive dialogue, unconditional positive regard, and trusting in the innate wisdom of your deepest inner knowing.
You are invited to step into an encounter with your past, present, future, higher and deeper self. Your whole being is welcome, and all of the parts often underrepresented in the context of modern life.
In a session with me you will be supported in exploring your human experience with greater quality, curiosity and care.
I offer processes of meditation and contemplation, and a space for sincere play with creative expression. You can expect to create and dialogue with image and soul, to find connection with the wider cosmic and human experience through myth and story, and to reignite your dreaming.
In this process of deepening and seeing through new, more vital eyes, you will be empowered to gently sift through, uncover, unravel, and shed. To reclaim, remember, renew, to revitalise self-image, and to strengthen your voice and intuition.
In a world where we often look to external sources for meaning and vitality, my invitation is for you to move inwards. When time and attention are traded as currency - my invitation is to gift yourself time!

TESTIMONIAL
'Taryn, provided me with such a deep, immersive creative experience. This was made possible by her ability to set sacred space and provide gentle yet provocative guidance. The foundation was solid in which to delve into the exploration of both my inner and outer landscapes allowing them to become a unified whole. Taryn’s facilitation of ‘letting go’ of the need for artistic perfection was a welcome reminder and allowed for much to come forth from a deep intuitive place. Throughout the session Taryn guided me with a certain type of enchantment and assisted me to explore the deep-seated imaginal nooks and crannies of myself. Seeing with new eyes you could say. Through the unravelling of our sessions, I walked away with a sense of getting in touch with my soul and healing parts of myself that presented. What a gift!'

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺
-
No prior artistic experience is necessary. Transpersonal Art Therapy is not about producing technically skilled artwork; rather, it is a process of self-exploration and self-expression. The focus is on engaging with the imagery, emotions, and insights that arise through creative expression rather than on aesthetic outcomes. Art becomes a tool for deepening personal reflection, unlocking subconscious wisdom, and honoring different aspects of oneself. Whether you consider yourself an artist or have never picked up a paintbrush before, you are welcome to join and engage with the process in a way that feels natural to you.
-
I recommend soft pastels, gouache or acrylic paints, pencils or charcoal and thick paper like watercolour paper or a journal.
You are welcome to bring any other materials you may already have handy or be familiar with like magazines or craft materials, feel free to follow your own inspiration.
As we flow through the sessions we may decide to move towards a particular material that may be best suited to a particular process or your needs or desires.
-
Your session will take place online via Zoom and will run for 1hr and 15mins, please ensure you have a stable internet connection.
The online context works perfectly for the transpersonal, inner work and will encourage you to activate a creative space in your home.
-
To prepare for your session please find a private, quiet, comfortable and pleasant space.
Consider aspects of the space like incense, lighting (a dim and bright option work best).
Please bring your preferred art materials, an eye mask if you have access to one.

Transpersonal psychology explores human experience beyond the personal self, integrating psychological insights with spiritual wisdom. It acknowledges that personal growth involves more than just the mind—it includes the body, emotions, and deeper aspects of consciousness. This field bridges Western psychology with insights from diverse traditions, such as mindfulness, shamanic practices, and studies of peak experiences.
Rather than focusing solely on diagnosis or categorisation, transpersonal psychology embraces the mystery of human experience, encouraging self-exploration, meaning-making, and connection with the larger interconnected whole.
