  • discover personal symbols and myths,
  • reconnect with self,
  • learn who you are and how to express yourself authentically,
  • find clarity and richness within yourself and your life,
  • discover creative solutions to current obstacles and concerns.

    Kellie Miles is a transpersonal art therapist working in Sydney's Easter Suburbs. Joining you on your journey, she assists you to craft your life with vision, vibrancy & imagination.

    Choose from private sessions in her art therapy studio or a range of workshops and creative programs. Some of these include:
