A Creative Approach Towards Self-Healing, Wholeness & Freedom
A Creative Approach Towards Self-Healing, Wholeness & Freedom
Self-Healing is a recovery process from psychological and emotional wounds, motivated and guided by a person's own inner wisdom. To facilitate that, I bring together the expressive arts, meditation practices, and community to promote holistic healing, consciousness expansion, and embodied experience.

In inviting a relationship between the conscious and the unconscious mind, we create space for memories and emotions stored in the body and below the surface of consciousness to rise into awareness. That way, we can explore and process them in creative ways, in the present moment's safety.
Each person is unique, as we are all shaped by our personal experiences. They leave in us a series of imprints from which we form our identities and narratives. So imagine that there is an entire universe within you. A universe that is particular and mostly unknown. Wouldn't it be amazing to explore its landscapes, its inhabitants, and everything else that constitutes it? That's what I am inviting you to do: travel inwards to get to know yourself intimately, allowing the journey to transform you in ways yet unknown.

ANA LIZ
Ana Liz (she/her) is a Latina woman from Brazil, based in Los Angeles since 2016. Healing Artist, Somatic Practitioner, and Meditation & Mindfulness Teacher (IMMA / CPD), Ana holds a BA in Arts and has worked as an artist, performer and educator for 13 years. She started her teaching journey by mentoring teens in visual arts and creative writing, and, through the years, has studied many healing arts practices such as authentic movement/dance, Buddhism and secular Mindfulness, Yoga, Experimental Theater, and Expressive Arts Therapy.
Through her own path of healing and self-understanding, Ana discovered a natural talent to hold space for others and facilitate transformational work through art, embodiment, and self-reflection. Her curiosity for understanding her own nature became a passion for the human condition we all share.
Ana went on to become certified as a Meditation & Mindfulness Teacher and began applying her knowledge of the arts and experience as a mentor to offer art-based interventions to underprivileged youth in Brazil and Los Angeles. She facilitated art classes for the elder impacted with dementia through Alzheimer's LA, and since 2018, has been working with adults of various ages and backgrounds, teaching somatic-oriented meditation classes, expressive arts-based workshops, rituals, and conversations around our relationships with ourselves, others, and the world around us - with a focus in embodiment mentorship for women and queer folks.
Ana Liz sees the body as the pathway to the Soul, a portal for healing and positive change. Her work with therapeutic self-portraits led her to the Tamalpa Institute (Life/Art Process®), where she is currently enrolled to become certified as a Movement-Based Expressive Arts Therapist and Educator.
Through her studies, professional and personal experiences, and multi-cultural background, Ana Liz has crafted a unique way of working with people as a guide and witness in their processes. At the heart of her work is a person-centered, trauma-informed approach that empowers people to honor themselves as they are now while working creatively and intentionally to generate insight, healing, growth, and social transformation.
