"Often the hands will solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain."
— Carl Gustav Jung
Creativity as a path to wholeness
Experiential and creative arts therapy offers a gentle, evidence-based way to explore your inner wisdom and make new meaning, through engaging with art materials, the body, and the therapeutic relationship. Sessions are available online and in-person, for individuals, groups, and organisations.
How I can support you
-
Online Creative Arts Therapy
Engaging with arts therapy and experiential counselling online allows you to access meaningful therapeutic support from the comfort of your own space, whether you’re based in Sydney or elsewhere. Sessions are conducted via video call and include a combination of emergent dialogue, embodied creative expression and practices. This format suits clients seeking flexible, accessible support for mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.
$150 / 50 min
NDIS participants (self-managed and plan-managed) are welcome. -
In-Person Creative Arts Therapy
In-person creative arts therapy and counselling is offered through Virgil Therapy in the Sutherland Shire. Jerico facilitates grounded, sensory-rich sessions outdoors, drawing on ecotherapy principles and creative arts processes. These nature-based sessions take place in Bundeena (one hour south of Sydney CBD, in the Royal National Park) and offer a spacious, restorative, calming natural environment for exploration and creative expression.
$150 / 50 min (plus materials fee)
NDIS participants (self-managed and plan-managed) are welcome. -
Online Arts Therapy Groups
Creative arts therapy online groups offer a space for shared reflection, expression, and connection. Each series of group workshops explores a core theme, practice, or materials. Blending multimodal arts, somatic practices, and imagination, group work is perfect for those seeking structure, community, and growth in a supportive, creative container where the outcome is incidental—and the process is what counts.

Community Workshops & Professional Wellbeing
Virgil Therapy partners with community groups and professional workplaces to design bespoke creative arts therapy experiences, whether one-off or recurring. My workshops are tailored for your group’s needs and combine meditation and mindfulness, somatic and holistic practices, and creative experimentation. I aim to nurture creativity, connection, and reflective practice to support self-awareness, resilience, and personal growth. All programs are bespoke to the needs of your community group or professional setting.
