Effectively Addressing Concerns Through Painting: SOLUTION-ORIENTED PAINTING THERAPY LOM® IN CRETE with Katina Kalpakidou

Depending on your preference, you can stay on your own or with the other artists—right by the sea or in one of the mountain villages with fantastic ocean views.
I’d be happy to help you find accommodations.

A snack is provided during the break.

Many accommodations have fully equipped kitchens for self-catering. It’s also worth enjoying a meal at a variety of taverns by the sea or in the mountains.

We start at 11 a.m. and paint twice a day for 2 1/4 hours each session, for a total of 4.5 hours per day, with a one-hour break in between.
At the beginning, we discuss each participant’s specific concerns. Then we paint.
Even though we paint together in a small group, I work individually with each participant. The paintings are not discussed as a group. At the end of each painting session, we share our experiences so that everyone can learn from the processes of the other participants without commenting on them.

During breaks, there are lovely shaded and sunny spots available on the large terrace with a view of the sea and throughout the property.

The fourth day is painting-free, so you’ll have time to explore the area, go on excursions, spend time at the beach, or just relax.

You’ll need to arrange your own travel. We’re happy to help. Heraklion and Chania airports are served by flights from many European cities. Plakias is an equal distance—about 100 km—from both Cretan airports and can be reached by bus.
We also recommend booking a rental car directly at the airport.
