Hi, I'm Tracey Mekitarian

Transpersonal Art Therapist and Counsellor

ANZACATA Member No. 68787508

I am so grateful that you are here.

I'm Tracey Mekitarian and I'm an Art Therapist...but not just any old art therapist...I'm a Transpersonal Art Therapist...who is passionate about sharing the power of intuitive creativity for well-being, self-growth and healing.

I came to Art Therapy after a 38 year career in education, where I was privileged to support thousands of young people and their families to successfully navigate significant challenges in their lives...adding an extensive array of tools to my therapy toolbox along the way.

In 2018, after a number of significant life events, including the deaths of my parents, I found myself in need of psychological support. I discovered, as I accessed this support, how art journalling greatly improved the therapeutic experience for me...So I became an art therapist...to share the benefits of creative expression for healing, personal growth and general well-being...with anyone who would like to allow their Inner Wisdom to speak with them through their art.

Why Transpersonal Art Therapy?

I am continually blown away by the insights and wisdom that clients find through this gentle but powerful approach to therapy.

...I feel privileged to support my clients in finding their own wisdom.

...I am honoured to witness the healing, growth and transformation that occurs...

when we look beyond our masks...start to understand and accept our selves,

...and to finally see our

"true colours shining through"

- Cyndi Lauper

What is Transpersonal Art Therapy?

Transpersonal literally means "beyond the mask"...We all wear a variety of metaphorical masks...sides of ourselves...personas...that we show the world...Transpersonal Art Therapy helps you to access the parts of yourself that lie behind the masks...the many parts of ourselves that we only share with those we trust...or we keep hidden...sometimes even from ourselves... Transpersonal Art Therapy helps us to become aware of...to explore...and understand these aspects of ourselves...at a deeper level.

Transpersonal Art Therapy considers the whole person...not only the psychological, intellectual, emotional and physical parts...but also our unique spiritual selves...and believes that we need to consider...and work towards...accepting and integrating...all aspects of ourselves...so we can grow and heal.

Transpersonal Art Therapy is guided by the belief...that we each have the answers we need within us...our inner wisdom...my role is to assist you in connecting with this inner wisdom...using the language of our inner world...image and symbol...through intuitive creativity...our inner guides can speak to us...by exploring our creative expressions with open curiosity...messages from our Wise Selves can emerge.
