Andrea Marina (Ange) Garabelli

GDipEd, BA, AThR
Ange (she/her) is an artist, therapeutic arts practitioner, educator, arts-based researcher and professional practice supervisor. A multi-media artist, she engages with a variety of materials creating two and three-dimensional works. As a creative arts therapist, her curiosity is enlivened by the life-enhancing, expansive relationships that can be cultivated with materials and their emergent forms, working alongside clients, students and fellow practitioners to discover new languages to ‘voice”’ and reflect on their experience, support well-being and invite agency.

Historically, Ange has worked with children in out-of-home care and has a decade of experience in facilitating groups and arts projects for young people, women and community groups in the Community Arts and Education realms. A teacher for over 20 years, she is currently a member of Academic Staff at the MIECAT Institute, facilitating and supervising in the Masters in Therapeutic Arts Practice.
