Frequently Asked Questions

These are not traditional art classes.  You do not need to be artistic or creative, you just need to be prepared to have a go and put your inner critic on pause. 

Everyone is welcome and included at our workshops.  We treat everyone with kindness, compassion and respect and expect all of our participants to do the same.  This includes kindness to yourself when you are judging your artwork or are tempted to compare your work with others.  Remember comparison is the thief of joy.

If you have any special requirements or needs you would like to discuss before the workshop please send a message from our 'Contact Us' page with the details or request a call-back if you would prefer to have a chat.

While these workshops can be a powerful complement to counselling or therapy with a psychologist, please do not stop seeing your therapist without first discussing this with them.  This is not intended to be a replacement for counselling/ therapy.

If it is more than 24 hours before the event simply jump back online and cancel or change your booking to a date and time that works for you.  It doesn't need to be at the same location.  If it is within 24 hours of the event, please send me an urgent message on 0401 992 026 to notify me. 

If you need to cancel completely you will be eligible for a full refund (less a small processing fee) so long as you provide at least 24 hours notice. Bookings cancelled within 24 hours are not refundable. 

Please allow sufficient time for your refund to be processed by the payment processer - refer to the relevant processer for a guide as to the expected timeframe. 

As it is important for all participants to feel comfortable and safe, and due to the potentially sensitive nature of some of our conversations, it is not suitable to bring children.  We are considering running dedicated parent & child workshops in the future - if you would be interested in attending, please let me know via our Contact Us page.
