This workshop is soon travelling to support individuals affected by extreme events in controlled volunteer settings.
You can book the workshop until the 21st of January 2026.
Online or in Tallinn (my studio or your location)
This 1:1 art workshop is designed for people who are grieving and seeking a way to integrate their loss, rather than bypass or suppress the pain.
The session does not replace psychotherapy. Instead, it offers a structured, contained experience that provides understanding, practical tools, and a supported process for moving forward after loss.
The session lasts approximately 2 hours, with no rush and no performance expectations.
This workshop is suitable for individuals who are ready to engage with grief related to, for example:
Loss of identity due to changes in status and relationships
loss of a former version of oneself following major life changes
loss of health or bodily integrity after accident or violence
Loss of a child or a loved one
Loss of innocence following past traumatic events
Unintegrated grief is a significant contributor to depression, emotional stagnation, and difficulty showing up fully in life. Research shows that grief integration involves meaning-making and safe emotional processing, supported by a neutral, steady witness - one who does not judge, shame, rush, or attempt to “fix” the experience.
At the end of the workshop you may:
learn to distinguish between clean pain and toxic pain
experience a safe way to process clean pain
gain tools to revisit grief independently when needed
experience emotional relief or increased inner stability
tap into your truth and reconnect with authenticity
find real strength and not mentally outsource it anymore
understand the principles of grief integration
No artistic skills are required. You will be guided by a professional artist, and the focus is on process, not art product
I work within clear professional boundaries and draw on my background in crisis pedagogy, ethical facilitation, and art-based methods. You are never required to share personal details or speak about your experience unless you wish to.
