Why work with me?

I am Marga Fripp, a lifelong humanitarian and activist, trauma-informed Expressive Art Therapist, Artist, and certified Qigong teacher.

I have a Master’s Degree in Expressive Art Therapy and am dedicated to helping children and adults heal from stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and caregiving burnout. With over 30 years of experience, I integrate art, movement, mindfulness, and neuroscience to create a safe space for emotional release, resilience, and self-discovery.

Art therapy and Qigong are powerful tools for well-being, blending creative expression and mindful movement to calm the nervous system, process emotions, and restore inner balance. These practices offered with compassionate care nurture healing, joy, and self-empowerment, guiding individuals of all ages toward greater peace and wholeness.

My superpower is a mix of compassion in action, fierce creativity, entrepreneurial thinking, and resilience. I embrace failure and the unknown. I seek possibilities and imagine wholehearted approaches to dissolving injustice, suffering, and separation.
