We listen to the whole of you. Body, imagination, emotion, intuition, psyche, mind, and voice.
1:1 Expressive Arts Therapy Online
with Karen Queller
Let life reveal itself through your creative expression.
Who its for!!!
You've been trying so hard.
Stop Forcing. Start Listening.
Whether you're stuck in your life or a creative project, there is something inside you that wants to move, but doesn't know how.
Do you understand me?
Are you a creative, deep-feeler with a hunger to take up more space in your life? for more life??
You feel a lot. you think a lot. you want a lot. Theres a lot inside you that wants to come outside of you. to be expressed.
Who its for!!!???
You've been trying so hard and you still feel stuck.
THE Challenge
You feel stuck because your trying to think your way through every challenge, and you're out here trying to make it all happen on your own.
-
You're perfectionism keeps you from doing
-
You've lost touch with what lights you up
-
Nothing ever feels like enough.
-
Your body feels numb
-
Your joy feels far away.
Your life might feel ....fine... good enough..., but if you ever let yourself get quiet, you hear a whisper that says 'I miss feeling like me'. You stay busy, so you don't have to feel the grief, fear, and unknown.
You forgot how to trust and flow WITH life.
YOU MISS YOURSELF, and aren't sure how to feel more YOU
You wonder
-
when just being yourself became such hard work?
-
When did life become so serious??
-
Where did all the joy and magic and play go?
At some point, your mind probably started to take over. expectations, judgements, external validation.... You stopped following the fun and started following the shoulds. I should be responsible. I should have everything figured out so there is zero room for mistakes. I should know what i want. I should have already had the perfect life by now. I should be a little more together like my neighbor.
Those shoulds will drive you crazy.
You cooould keep pushing... Forcing your way forward is an option, but it's not fun, It's exhausting. It's boring. It's also not nourishing, or sustainable and it sucks the aliveness out of life. This way of living leaves the soul feeling dry, and the soul is happy when it's wet.
What if there is another way? An easier, more enjoyable way...What if you could just put all you've been carrying down for a little while and let it all just be enough. What if we can open one tiny window inside you and let in some fresh air? What if you don't have to do so much and instead let life guide you and speak to you through the language of colors, sounds, textures, images, movements, sensations, stories, poetry, symbols, ritual and creative inspiration....?
Sounds way better, right?!
A different way
When everything feels complicated come back to simplicity.
Come back to your senses. Come back to presence. Come back to simple pleasures. Come back to your intuition. Come back to sunshine on your face. Come back to the smell of oranges. come back to colors moving across a paper. come back to the curious being within you. Come back to what you ACTUALLY want, instead of what you think you SHOULD want, come back to your heart. Come back to love. Come back to admiring the stars. Come back to beauty. Come back to really feeling alive again instead of walking around in numb zombie mode.
When we take a break from all the noise, we have more space to come back to ourselves. When we spend quality time with ourselves, we can re-enter the world feeling more refreshed and nourished. Our cups are full so we can come back to the things we care most about.
Come back home to yourself

THE PROCESS
Let the stuckness move.
Let life reveal itself through your creative expression.
What we actually do
What happens in a 1:1 Session?
Explore. Experiment. Experience
Don't just talk about change. Do it. Feel it. Embody it.
Our work is centered within the HERE and NOW. Understanding insights and having an embodied experience of something different are not the same thing.
Practice being in relationship to life again
For creative, intuitive people who feel stuck in a project, a life transition, or their own expression—and want to find movement again.
Your Creative Space
the place where you can just BE, as you are, all parts welcome.
Talking can help you understand why you are stuck. Creative process lets you meet the stuckness directly: give it color, movement, shape, sound, language, and space.When you step into the unknown without demanding an answer, something unexpected can appear—a forgotten desire, a truer direction, a release, or one small next movement
No artistic experience needed. Just a willingness to explore
Trust
JOY
CREATIVITY
knowing
Rediscover your....
Inner-Peace
Clarity
ALIVENESS
softness
Let colors, materials, your body, images, sounds, stories, smells guide you.
The world of Curiosity, sensuality, play and exploration are waiting for you.
Sometimes, in order to come home we need to first go on a journey into the unknown. The Creative Process allows us to dip our toes into this realm.
The more we can learn to open our senses, listen, and receive creative inspiration, the greater our capacity becomes to allow movement and respond to life. THIS is what we are doing here.
Imagine..... situation that they can see this in..... how does it actually help them in life...
The more we can allow, the richer, and more sensual, relaxed, exciting, flowing, trusting our life becomes.
LET LIFE FEEL FUN AGAIN
When you have the time and space to focus on you, you start to feel safe again, present again, curious again, connected to your joy again.
Remember what that feels like??
A space just for YOU to do YOU in any way YOU want
What if you already are the person you are trying to become, and our job here is simply to help you be more YOU!?? There is no 'right' way to do this life. There is YOUR way. You get to make up your own rules, make it fun, and follow what lights you up (even if you don't know what that is yet). That is what we're doing here. We are removing all the layers of gunk that stand in the way of you remembering how incredibly AMAZING you are, and we are shining a light on all the things that make you smile, and your heart exhale in relief. How do we do all that you ask? We enter the world of art, imagination, experimentation, and your own inner wisdom that has a lot of things to express!
REMINDER: You already are AMAZING!!!!
The Challenges are the Gifts.
Why exa??
MOST IMPORTANTLY..... WE LISTEN TO WHAT IS WANTING TO EMERGE in the session, and that might look different for each person depending on the day or even the moment.
WE DON'T PUSH.
WE DON'T FORCE.
WE ALLOW.
This is a space for YOU to do YOU!!
Permission to feel free
I want you to take up space here!! That's what its for. This is a space for you to experiment with what that looks like for you in each moment.
If you hate one of my brilliant invitations that I offer, you can say 'NO!!!'
If all you want to do in the session is lay on the floor, because that's what actually feels good to you, DO IT!
If you have a secret desire to be a performer, or write a novel, or sing out loud not just in the shower, we create space for you to try, to make mistakes, to be imperfect, ugly, weird, to look stupid, and then to just... try again.
I See You
You care dear one. You care deeply.
You feel a lot. You think a lot. You want a lot.
When you love, you LOVE. When you try, you TRY. When you 'fail', you feel like you've FAILED..... You are a person with so much depth and richness inside you, but you feel disconnected. You feel like something is just out of reach. You've had glimpses of your power, but somehow it feels like those moments come and go (with more emphasis on the going part), you have beautiful dreams, but they also feel overwhelming and you don't know where to start, or you have started, but now feel stuck
You know there is more inside you that wants to come out.
Why Now??
Because we need you. NOW. Seriously.
We need YOU. Not Betty and Bob or Laura and Joe.... The world needs YOU!!
You are the only YOU there will EVER be!!! EVER. There never was a never you before and there never will be another you again. .... Let that sink in for a second....
You've probably noticed that our world is changing. Fast. With our current lifestyles people are feeling more disconnected, sedentary, and pressured. The world asks us to constantly produce more, be better, try harder, work faster and do all of that largely on your own!
What the heck?!?!? And we are just supposed to do all that with no problems??
Nope.
The challenges are real. The anxiety is real. The depression is real. The not-enoughness is real.
We were never supposed to be able to do all that on our own.
Over time, the pieces of ourself become fragmented. We try to be the best parents to our children, and the best bad-asses at work, and SPECIFICS....
But our WHOLE gets divided. our attention and energy get scattered. So soon we feel that we are never truly present where we are, and what we are doing is never enough. The world asks so much of us.
-
I’m constantly overwhelmed.
-
I overthink everything.
-
I don’t know what I want anymore.
-
I’m afraid to begin unless I can do it perfectly.
-
I’ve lost touch with joy.
-
I want to trust myself again.
-
Where did my creativity go?
-
Why does everything feel so serious?
-
What am I doing with my life?!?!
-
Who am I and how do I express ALL of myself
-
When will I feel like i've arrived?
OR MAYBE YOU FEEL LIKE...
There's more inside you. Let it out.
Why Art.... just for fun??
I don't have time just to do arts and crafts... to make art just for fun.... why should i???
Why Expressive Arts Therapy??
It's time to bring those peices HOME
Home to yourself. Home to life.
Remember what if feels like to trust yourself? Remember what it feels like to feel joy because a hummingbird came to your window? Remember what it feels like to even notice that the hummingbird came to your window and to actually pause and admire it?? Or let it make you wonder.... about beauty, and creatures, and nature, and how can those wings even move so fast?!?!
When we let ourselves be touched by life, we know we're alive.... otherwise, we're kind of just on autopilot. Numb. Going through the motions without feeling the zest of life with us. The joy. The mystery. The beautiful surprises.
Ok, that all sounds nice, but how does this 'Expressive Arts Therapy' thing actually work?
FIRST.....
We start with practicing PRESENCE.
We do this through
Breathing Noticing Feeling Sensing
When we give ourselves the time and space to slooooowwww doooowwwwnnn, we can begin to notice things that we've never noticed before. Maybe it's the first time you noticed your bodily sensations all day. Or maybe you notice that you're carrying grief. Or maybe you notice an image of a blue doorway that pops into your imagination...
This is where we practice getting perspective, feel connected to yourself again, and remembering what inner peace feels like. Or, we get more clarity about what is standing in the way of you feeling connected to all those things (like the to-do list that keeps popping up in your mind etc. )
Then, we take mindfulness and we bring it into action.
What?!?!? Crazy. I know.
MINDFULNESS in ACTION. ..... Yup
Aligned Action.
We practice listening so you can receive more, allow more, and take inspired action
Follow your bliss. Follow your fun. Follow your pleasure. Follow your clarity. Follow your good feelings. Follow them as far as they will take you, and more will come.” ― Abraham Hicks
When you feel connected to yourself, life flows with less effort/more easily.
“You came to RADIATE the fullness of who you are.” ― Abraham Hicks
“Focus on how you want to feel and let the Universe fill in the details.” ― Abraham Hicks
And take everything I just told you with a grain of salt because
Yes, working with art is FUN! But it's not ONLY that.......
Phronesis - is an ancient Greek word meaning practical wisdom
We set up an expansive environment for you to explore in, so that you can come back with new tools and embodied wisdom to apply back into your life.
WHY ME?
We are co-creators here
and I want you to know, I FULLY TRUST in your inner wisdom and light!
I am not here to tell you how to change, and fix yourself, and be different.
NO!!
I am here, doing what I do because I SEE you.
If you are on this page reading these words it means you are special, and there is so much inside you that really really wants to come out (even if you haven't admitted that out loud yet, secretly you know it's true)
My job here is to help you be MORE YOU.
I also believe my work is to help you feel connected to something greater... wheather that is spirit, nature, your community, your ancestors, or the world of creativity and artists (this is deeply personal and different for each person). We can't do this life alone. The more supported we feel, the more resilience and courage, and love we will keep cultivating in our hearts. You are not alone my friends, eventhough sometimes it can feel like it.
In addition to that, I run a very eclectic ship. I like variety, which is why Expressive Arts Therapy is an absolutely perfect fit for me. I don't like to feel limited. I love having options, wearing any color I want to, spending an hour screaming, the next hour dancing, the next hour, writing a new story, the next hour planning a trip to Morrocco. I'm a wild creature. I love being open to what life wants to send my way. As such, I've been all over the world, met some of the most beautiful people, have had all kinds of crazy experiences (maybe I'll tell you a story sometime over tea...), and have learned about life from villagers in Nepal, yogis in the Himalayas, children in Fiji, and Magicians and storytellers from every corner of the planet. I've searched high and low to meet the best of the best (SERIOUSLY!). I've lived nomadically for years, explored many alternative communities, and learned about life through the eyes of locals.
I've learned that there are so many ways to see and do life, there is no 'right' or 'wrong' way. I've also learned that at the end of the day we all just want to love and feel loved. We want to feel connected. And we want tools and channels to express ourselves, and to play, and to create, and to be in an active and nourishing relationship with life itself.
I've had all of these experiences so that I can embody these teachings and carry this wisdom forward to YOU, and so that you may take these teachings and carry them forward through you, in your own special way. Pretty beautiful huh....
For me LIFE IS....... short and precious and a cabaret!(I told you already - I like having options) And I want to live it deeply. I want to celebrate it masterfully. And I want to help you do the same.
How is Expressive Arts Therapy Different?
We create a space for YOUR authentic expression, not Johnny's or Annie's or Sarah's or Melanie's.
Just yours.
This is more than typical talk therapy
We work within the sacred realm. Both of us are asked to surrender inside the container, in a portal between time and space.
Our sessions together are not only sessions. Each meeting is a sacred journey that allows you to arrive, jHave an experience /journey into the unknown, come back a little more changed, and re-enter your life integrating new sensations, insights, and perspectives, felt sense in your body and knowing.
It's like a tiny Hero's Journey.
The EMERGING
Although we do have a container for the session, I can't tell you exactly what will happen. This is exactly the process we are exploring together, as co-creators. The guiding principle in my sessions, is that we both become present and curious about what is wanting to emerge, rather than what we think should emerge.
We can guide your journey, and I will also ask you to bring your intentions and desires, but The process has an intelligence of its own. And that is what we are here to research and discover together.
When both you and I can let go of expectations of what should happen, we can allow something more intelligent to come through. That is what we call the CREATIVE PROCESS. The creative process asks us to surrender beyond our egos, and trust in the invisible and unknown.
This is something humans don't like to do. We like knowing things. We like knowing where we are going. What we are doing. What hte speed limits are. Where we can park.....
The expressive arts process, asks us to both LET GO & SHAPE. This is the dance we are practicing in the sessions together.
Why Now???
At this point, you might have a, felt sense, in your body. (If you aren't sure what you feel right now thats ok too, and if you would like to explore this more, this is also a lot of what we will do together in sessions - Help you feel what you feel, give it a name, and find an expression for it - baby steps.)
You get to feel playful again, you get to take up space just for you, you get to feel pleasure and joy, you get to feel relaxed, you get to remember how to trust yourself and trust life again. You get to feel like you again.
Whats the transformation?
If that DOESN'T feel like the most important thing to you.... than this might now be the thing for you, and I thank you for reading this far and feeling it out.
a 'Parting wish'
We are all at different places on our journey. I deeply honor this. If you would like to enter your wish HERE (I will be reading these)
I will send you a blessing to you from the bottom of my heart and say a prayer that your wish may be fulfilled. (this also gives me feedback about who is visiting and what they are looking for which helps me serve people like you).
If you want it to feel like the most important thing to you again, but you're not really sure how you feel right now, you are still in the right place. I'm happy to jump on a phone call with you so you can feel into it more.
The Invocation
And if you're heart is beating a little bit faster, and you are so ready for this journey and you are like 'bring it on!!' , we can still have consultation call, or you can book your first session directly here.
The field responds, the moment we say yes.
So dear one, what are you saying YES to??
But I encourage you to focus on no more than 3 words that you are bringing into your heart, and stepping into .
If you would like a creative fortune cookie/or to find out what your creative perception language is (auditory, kinesthetic, visual....?)(which artist you were in a past life)
and to stay updated with my blog, events, and news
Put your info here.
Love
At the end of the day, all of this comes down to love. When you are 110 years old looking back at your life, you will remember how open your heart was and how deeply you loved here. I want you to feel very fulfilled when that day comes.
In the meantime, try writing yourself a letter from love, or write a love letter to someone you love, or perhaps to a stranger
If you'd like to be inspired and inspire others, share your letter with a community of love-letter- writers, submit HERE
and join author of 'Big Magic', and 'Eat, Pray, Love', Liz Gilbert and her project 'letters from love'.
Or, you might want to write a little note, roll it up, and stick it on a stranger's car window. The world could definitely use some more surprises and LOTS more kindness.
MAYBE YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE...
You don't have to think your way through.
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
The world needs YOUR unique expression. The one that only YOU can bring.
So what happens in a 1:1 session together?
A space to let go.
A space to listen.
A space to allow.
A space to embody
A space to .
Imagine if an art class & a therapy session and a spiritual ritual had a baby.... that's what our sessions feel like.
The Journey.../ Ritual
Arrive
Intentions
Explore
Reflect
Integrate
We begin with mindfulness and grounding, so you can settle into the present
We talk about what is alive in your life right now - what feels challenging, tender, confusing, or ready to move.
We enter the creative unknown through movement, color, sound, writing, imagination, objects, improv, ritual, or something we discover together.
We notice what surprised you, what wanted expression, what you released, and what your process revealed.
We bring the discovery back into your life—with more space, choice, trust, and permission to be fully alive.
Why is this important??
The creative process mimics our life proess. The more we practice letting go in our art, the more we can let go in our life.
The same patterns that keep us stuck in art are often the same patterns that keep us stuck in our lives.

Whats the transformation?
What Becomes Possible?
We Allow. Don't Force
More room to breathe. More freedom to feel. More courage to express.
Let go of pressure, perfectionism, old roles, and feelings you have been carrying alone. Reconnect with your body, intuition, imagination, pleasure, and inner sense of direction. Meet difficult experiences with curiosity, compassion, ritual, beauty, and play. Feel more authentic, expressive, trusting, connected, joyful and alive in your own life.
From stuck, disconnected, and overthinking to alive, embodied, trusting, expressive, and deeply connected to yourself.
Create from connection—not pressure.
Move through perfectionism, fear of beginning, comparison, and creative paralysis.
Find clarity when you have too many ideas—or no idea what comes next.
Reconnect with your intuition, spiritual life, body, imagination, pleasure, and play.
Build trust in your own process so your projects—and your life—can begin moving again.
I'm Karen
I create a space where the sacred and the ordinary can meet—where you can loosen your grip, listen beneath the noise, and let your own creative process guide us toward what is asking to emerge.
Imagine...
What if we gave you the space to scream and cry and get messy and angry and silly and creative and quiet and space for absolutely whatever else needed to come through?? YOU HAD SPACE FOR YOU
What if you could let go of all the doubt and fear you've been carrying so that you could make space for your essence to reemerge from within?? YOU COULD FINALLY LET GO?
What if you remembered how to experience wonder and joy in uncertainty instead of pure dread? GAVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO FEEL WONDER & JOY AGAIN?
What if you could release expectations around making 'good art', and just made art...? THERE WERE NO EXPECTATIONS AND YOU COULD JUST BE
What would that you look like? How would that you feel? How would that you spend your time?
the Possibilities
Join me in the Unknown. Come just as you are.
Let's see what wants to EMERGE
You don't need to have it all figured out.
In everyday life, we often repeat what we already know. The same thoughts. The same roles. The same ways of protecting ourselves.The Creative process opens a small doorway beyond the familiar. Through an image, a movement, a sound, a story, or a moment of play, you may meet a feeling, truth, resource, or possibility you could not have planned. The creative process reminds us how to trust and let life flow through us.
YOU ARE CREATIVE!
You DO belong here.
We are not making 'good' or 'pretty' art. It is perfectly fine for you to make 'bad' or 'ugly' art here.
Also, we are all creative. Whether you think of yourself as an artist or not.
One thing I love about art is that it has space to hold everyone and everything. nothing and nobody is too much, not enough, too this or too that for art. Art welcomes it all.

It's ok to slow down
Why is this work so special???
The Creative Process.
The creative process reminds us how to trust and let go of control and expectations. It connects us to the creative source and helps us allow life to flow through us.
Creativity becomes a doorway back to yourself, not something to perform or do correctly
Disappear into the creative process again. Lose time. surprise yourself. feel life moving through you again. Make something you didn't know you had inside. Remember what it feels like to be fully alive.
You don't need another course. You don't need another breakthrough. You don't need to force yourself to be more disciplined. You need somewhere your whole self is invited. the part that knows. the part that's terrified. the part that's wildly creative. the part that has forgotten how to play.
You miss yourself. not the healed version. the optimized version.not the productive version. the version of you that is just present. who feels wonder. who trusts your instincts. who isn't performing creativity, just living it.
Talking can help you understand why you are stuck. Creative process lets you meet the stuckness directly: give it color, movement, shape, sound, language, and space
You have sensitivity, depth, and desire. But something isn’t moving.
I’m doing all the “right” things, but I don’t feel alive.I’m in-between identities and don’t know what comes next.I have a project I can’t begin—or finish.Perfectionism has taken the joy out of creating.I keep comparing myself and losing my own voice.I miss feeling inspired, expressive, and connected to myself.
Just come as you are. ALL of you is welcome here, just as you are.
You are enough.

CLIENT REVIEWS
"I had a very beautiful and unique experience with Karen. We worked on a difficult topic and I had new and interesting insights about myself and what really bothers me in the situation I was in. The way of approaching the fears and insecurities with expressive art therapy was a very powerful and positive experience. With Karen's help it felt playful and easy. She made me feel very comfortable with whatever I was doing. I felt like a kid again. The feeling when you‘re just enjoying your ideas while playing not thinking about how others would think about you. I would definitely recommend this experience."

With a B.A in psychology from UCSD, many years of various dance training, yoga certification, a strong spiritual practice, experiences both teaching and studying art, and working in the art department within the film industry - my life led me to Expressive Arts. It was the most natural next step. I feel privileged to have received my Master's degree from the pioneers of this field at the European Graduate School.
I am so excited to share EMERGING Expressive Arts work with all of you, as I know it's power to help us live with passion, ALIVENESS, meaning, connection, nourishment, freedom and openness for change and growth! Expressive Arts is a path of remembering our essence and our innate wisdom.

SURRENDER
Expressive Arts Therapy is a playground for stepping into the unknown so you can practice LETTING GO more easily in life. Through the arts we transform uncertainty into adventure, stress into trust, and challenges into your gifts. This work is nourished through experimentation and by saying YES to getting out of your comfort zone (or at least an "ok, I'm willing to try it once"). It is deep, beautiful, soul-stirring work that can surprise us, challenge us, and bring joy to the process of change (which is such a relief because change can be scary!)
For Who?
This work can be used with anyone, in any situation. If you are reading this right now, there is probably a reason why. Either your curiosity, desire, or a difficulty brought you here and you want to do something about that. Engaging in the arts helps us take action towards the things we truly care about. If you are unsure about this process feel free to CONTACT ME! Say hello, let me know what you are questioning and we can feel it out together.

Many people ask me - HOW DOES THIS WORK ONLINE? Beautifully! Although getting together in person is a lot of fun, doing expressive arts together online is just as effective. The constraints of working online can often force us to get even more creative and develop greater flexibility in order to adapt to what is available in our surroundings. The other great thing about doing this online is that you are working in YOUR environment which allows this work to integrate more effectively into your daily life. In our sessions, we transform your familiar space into a sacred space. You will be surprised at how much beauty and magic is present in corners you usually walk by everyday ;).
