Workshops, Series and Individual Sessions
Workshops are a big part of what I do. They allow me to share the things I've been developing in my creative practice, and engage in active research through experimentation with others for future works. Please keep checking back or sign up for my email newsletter - new online workshops in the works for the fall/winter!
In addition to this, I offer private sessions as a way of continuing and deepening our work together. These can be any mixture of Expressive Arts, body-based psychotherapy and Creative Process Mentorship, based on your needs.

"This has been transformational for me."

"Alexandra creates and provides a safe space to build community,
self trust, and to nurture the instinctual body.
My spirit knows greater freedom through this experience of play."

(Artist Research Group, 2017)
"It's so difficult to find the words to describe how valuable these sessions with Alexandra are to me. They feel so important - rich fertilizer for my creative practice. Choosing to attend these sessions is proving to be one of the best things I could’ve done for my creative process, for my body-mind connection, and for my general human development. They serve as a compass, pointing me towards my own voice."
- JL, Painter, Illustrator, Visual Artist
(Arts-Based Embodiment, 2018)
"... So invaluable."
- Artist Research Group participant, 2018, Penticton, BC
"[Alexandra] held a very warm space where mistakes and experimentation were encouraged and learning just happened thanks to [her] kindness and openness."
- Beginner Feltmaking and Feltmaking Continued participant, November 2019
" I just loved being able to play with some deeper senses that I’ve been wanting to explore and work more on. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to play and feel more of themselves in some new creative territory."
- Arts-Based Embodiment participant, October-November 2019, Penticton, BC

In this 6 session series we will cover techniques for remembering dreams, harvesting content, and building our own relationship with our unique dream mythology. We will work with our dreams individually and in the context of the group, using arts-based explorations to expand awareness in both dreaming and waking life. For this summer dreamwork series, we will be drawing on our relationship to our natural world to inform our explorations. Each session will take place in a different forest location in the local area, where we will meet to do our work. The work will be mostly experiential with an emphasis on cultivating a learning environment based on co-research and exploration.
