Marie Grueberova

Therapeutic Arts Counsellor

Art has been woven throughout my life in various forms –a hobby, a field of study, a commercial job and finally a healing companion. It took me a long time to make friends with art. At first it was a skill I wanted to perfect, trying to bend art to my will (and failing frustratingly). Until I discovered therapeutic arts at Tobias School of Art & Therapy where I learned to allow the images & forms to come out of me and through me. I began to trust the wisdom of the creative process to guide me and to release the emotional pain & struggle. Now I help others to find friendship with art and their own capacity to heal themselves.

As a practising artist, I have experienced the therapeutic effects of arts on myself. Art has become a trusted companion that helped me to get through life’s challenges and continues to inform, resolve, and nourish my whole being. My passion is to aid people on their own journey of healing and self-discovery with arts.
