Narrative Arts Therapy in Cape Town

Welcome to my Narrative Arts Therapy Studio in Kalk Bay, Cape Town.

Narrative Arts Therapy is a gentle form of counselling that helps people re-construct stronger life stories that support their healing and growth.

This process is not about producing artworks, but about discovering how images, colours, shapes and story can give voice to what words alone cannot say.

In this space, you are invited to pause, create, listen and think. Through drawing, paint, clay and storytelling, we explore how the stories we carry can be re-shaped into narratives of meaning, resilience, and possibility.

Whether you are curious about the healing power of creativity, in recovery from an illness or addiction, a health professional seeking new tools, a teacher, a counsellor, an artist, or simply someone in search of becoming, Narrative Arts Therapy in Cape Town offers gentle entry points for growth, reflection, and renewal.

We give meaning to our lives through the stories we carry with us. By learning how to listen to our unexplored stories and silent inner voice, we can learn how to become our own best healing companions.

Online Narrative Arts Therapy (Anywhere via Zoom)

If you cannot come to Cape Town, the studio can come to you. Online Narrative Arts Therapy sessions open the same space of art-making, story, and reflection — guided gently, step by step. With simple materials at home and a quiet two hours on Zoom, you can discover how images speak when words fall short.


The sessions are accompanied by the digital eBook, The Story of You - a Guided Journey with Narrative Arts Therapy, by Dr Marlene Winberg.

A Journey with Narrative Arts Therapy

At the heart of healing through the narrative arts lies a powerful truth:

We hold the agency to transform the stories that have shaped us.

This 6-part course encourages you to become your own healing companion by shaping your inner voice into a compassionate narrative - and offers you a wide variety of techniques to achieve this. The course is accompanied by the book, The Story of You and Us - A Healing Journey with the Narrative Arts.


One On One Sessions

A 90-minute in-person session provides an in-depth experience with narrative arts therapy. It includes the course guide book for continued self-guided healing, and digital resources for further exploration of healing with the narrative arts.

Online Sessions

Online therapy is increasingly popular due to its privacy, autonomy, and the ability to choose a preferred environment. Teenagers find it effective and less stigmatising, as they can do therapy in their own home. It is also more affordable.
