Therapeutic Approach & Special Methods
What is Art Therapy?
A creative approach using visual media to support healing
Do I need to be artistic?
No. No prior skills or artistic talents are required.
What happens during a talk therapy session?
A confidential conversation tailored specifically to your individual needs.
What is “unintentional painting” in Britta’s approach?
Rooted in psychodynamic tradition, unintentional painting surfaces deep unconscious thoughts and processes traumatic, unspeakable experiences without a fixed goal. Britta uses a unique two-step process: you paint freely, pause to reflect on your first impressions, and then refine the artwork to define, highlight, or transform the emerging imagery.
Why does Britta sometimes paint alongside the client?
Painting together with watercolour on paper is a collaborative way to reduce anxiety and ease the pressure of the blank page. It creates a shared, safe space that invites you to be more playful, curious, and free. Through this shared creative flow, deeper, unspoken feelings can naturally and gently surface on the paper.
What ares can be addressed in therapy?
Life transitions, personal growth, emotional blocks, and healing processes.
Appointments & Process
Do you offer online sessions (Telehealth)?
No. I deeply believe that in - person therapy provides the most effective connection for deep healing. This physical presence is especially vital in art therapy and psychodyunamic talk therapy to create a truly shared, safe holding space.
