Monica Ogaz Pittrice, Gestalt Counsellor

Si usa la pittura nel Counseling della Gestalt come mezzo espressivo per aprire un canale fra la persona e il suo mondo interno. L’uso della pittura in un simile contesto non ha lo scopo di sviluppare dei talenti, non è orientata a produrre dei risultati in termini di opere d’arte, ma serve a sperimentare un momento di crescita interiore. Il fine non è estetico, bensì etico: serve a scoprire qualc

osa di sé e a portare la persona dentro un percorso di apertura, creatività, responsabilità e cambiamento.

What if the paintings you love and the ones you can’t stand—have something to tell you about yourself?

In art therapy, we can use our spontaneous reactions to an artwork as a starting point for self-exploration.

What attracts you? What repels you? What feels familiar?

Sometimes, we recognize ourselves in unexpected places.

Which painting would you choose?

Ser mamá me pone frente a mí misma.

Me muestra esas ganas de resolver, proteger y evitar el dolor de mis hijos. Pero también me recuerda que, muchas veces, intervenir demasiado puede impedirles crecer.

Aprender a acompañarlos sin quitarles la frustración es uno de los mayores retos. Porque es precisamente atravesando esas emociones incómodas como desarrollan resiliencia, confianza y recursos propios.

Y mientras ellos crecen, yo también.

Qué regalo tan grande es crecer junto a ellos.

As an art therapist, I’ve noticed something interesting: children create with curiosity, while adults often create with permission.

Before the first brushstroke, many apologize. They worry about getting it wrong, making it pretty, or being “good enough.”

But creativity was never meant to be perfect. It was meant to be explored.

Maybe creativity never left us.
Maybe it just became careful.

My happy place 💗🩷

How would you define your happy place?

Is it a real place?
A memory?
A feeling?
A person?
Or maybe it’s a moment when you finally feel at home within yourself.

In art therapy, we often discover that our happy place isn’t something we have to search for—it’s something we can reconnect with through creativity, presence, and self-expression.

Today, take a moment to pause.
Close your eyes.
What colors do you see?
What textures, sounds, or shapes come to mind?

If you could paint your happy place, what would it look like?

I’d love to hear your answer in the comments. 💛

My life has been full of color lately.

Beautiful group workshops, meaningful online sessions, slow mornings, painting, meditation, time at the beach with my children, writing, laughing, and simply being.

These little moments remind me that creativity isn’t only something I teach—it’s the way I choose to live.

My heart feels full, and I feel deeply grateful for this season of my life.

One thing I notice over and over again in art therapy is how afraid we are of making mistakes.

Before the brush even touches the paper, many people are already worried about doing it “right.”

That’s why I sometimes introduce materials that remove the pressure to perform.

In this exercise, we painted with baking soda. At first, nothing could be seen. Only later, when turmeric was brushed over the paper, the hidden marks slowly appeared.

It reminds us that not everything has to be visible immediately.

When we let go of expectations, we stop trying to make something beautiful…

and start noticing how it feels to create.

Maybe that’s where creativity begins.
