Art for Wellness Classes—in person

These thoughtfully designed supportive small group classes were created to gradually build your confidence so you can learn how to play with freedom, discover what light you up, and explore your inner knowing using creative materials and intuitive strengthening techniques. Let’s play and explore with paint, paper, colors, stamps, stencils, or collage materials. Some possible benefits include cultivating soulful connections with yourself and others, increased mindfulness, strengthening your intuition, building confidence, and reduced stress in your daily life. When we create with freedom, it helps us tap into our wise, inner voice, express ourselves in a way that words sometimes can’t, and allows us to become more present with our true selves.

In my Intro to Play-Based Art for Wellness workshop you will get a chance to dip your feet into the world of color and creative expression. You will be guided in some fundamentals to get you started, exploring the various tools and art materials together.

In later classes, we build on the foundations and further explore the creative and intuitive process. You will get to choose from various offerings depending on your interests, such as watercolors, mixed media, collage or art journaling. Each of these will have an underlying focus of encouraging play, mindfulness, relaxation and connection.

“I discovered that my "perfectionistic blocks" get in the way of progress. However, the compassion and kindness of the instructor allowed me to not take my beliefs of failure too seriously and consider alternative options.”—Jillian Fabiani

To practice any art, no matter how well or how badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. So do it.”—Kurt Vonnegut

“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life”

—Picasso

Individual Sessions

It’s OK not to have all the answers, make mistakes, or ask for help.

One model or approach does not fit everyone.

At Bee Balanced by Teresa, I offer one-on-one sessions designed to support all learning styles and unique differences in how we support our best selves, including those who might identify as neurodivergent, including those with ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, anxiety, or HSP.

My approach is flexible, strengths-based, and grounded in both 20 years of experience in occupational therapy, and creative expression. Together, we focus on what brings you calm, joy, and a sense of connection—whether that’s through art-making, structured coaching, mentoring, or O.T. treatment, playful creative artful experimentation, or sensory-friendly activities that get you in a relaxing state of flow.

Each session is tailored to your unique needs, preferences, and goals. Whether you're looking to:

  • Build emotional regulation and resilience through creative flow

  • Explore alternative ways to express yourself and give your inner wisdom, inspirations and intuition a voice

  • Develop tools for organization and focus

  • Reconnect with meaningful activities and routines

  • Navigate transitions or reduce stress in daily life

…I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore what works best for you.

You're welcome exactly as you are. We move at your pace, and you’re always in charge of how much structure, support, or spontaneity we include.
