Training and relaxation in beautiful surroundings

The training is aimed at art and psychotherapists who want to initiate and accompany change processes through painting.
LOM® comes into play precisely where thinking, talking and expressing do not help sufficiently.

With the LOM® training you complete a certified further training course.

Prerequisites for participation
- Suitable basic psychotherapeutic / art therapy training, e.g. completion of the advanced level in accompanied painting / person-oriented painting therapy / art therapy
- or a degree in psychology with completed psychotherapy training
- or equivalent

In addition, participation in at least one LOM®live orientation block is mandatory for admission to the LOM® training course. It serves to get to know each other, provide orientation and information so that you can find out what can be worked on with LOM® and how LOM® is used. We work practically by giving each participant the opportunity to experience the LOM® way of working and its effects on an issue of their choice.

LOM® solution-oriented painting therapy
is a pictorial method that can be used in painting studios as well as in coaching sessions, in classrooms and in therapeutic practices. It is equally suitable for groups and individuals.
The aim is to replace disturbing memory images with undisturbed images in the brain. The images are selected in relation to specific concerns before painting and then painted as they are seen or in their simplest form. The aim is to create a new, neutral impression. (B. Egger)
The LOM method includes a specially developed anamnesis and diagnostic method as well as a specific intervention technique.

Plakias is right by the sea, with a large selection of small accommodations, several hotels, tavernas, stores, cafes and bars. And yet it is still a cozy little village. You can get to the studio in Mariou - approx. 4 km - by rental car or cab from 2 euros per person. Or you can book a villa or other accommodation within walking distance of the studio house, or in one of the other mountain villages with fantastic sea views. Depending on your wishes, you can stay alone or together with the other participants. I will help you with the coordination.
Examples can be found on paint-on-Crete

The outdoor kitchen is available during the break. This makes it possible to eat together.

Many accommodations have fully equipped kitchens for self-catering. It is also worth enjoying the food in a wide variety of tavernas by the sea or in the mountains.
