Her gender transition from male to female in 2014 taught her tremendously about the Ego as a construct and the polarizing energies shaping us. This personal transformation journey expanded beyond her physical identity into understanding new realms of consciousness and existence. Recognizing her prima materia and its origins became her main concern.

With her work, she explore concepts of self-care and emancipation inspired by a contemporary understanding of mindfulness, spiritual philosophies, and health care. Her research focuses range from alchemy, Kabbalah, Theosophy, anthroposophy to modern psychology, neuroscience, and alternative healing techniques. The art object thus seeks to transcend and materialize universal and timeless wisdom in a perpetual quest for truths. From shadow work to light nurturing, her artworks are pursuing an equilibrium of polarizing energies thus mirroring her androgynous incarnation.

Following the completion of her M.A. in Counselling Psychology, Carissa recognized the limitations of the traditional top-down, cognitive-based approaches that focus on the surface-level symptoms without addressing the underlying causes of our struggles.

Carissa is committed to facilitating your reintegration of body, mind, and spirit through practices that help you cultivate a deeper relationship with all parts of your Self, so that you can find your way back to a healthy, strong, and fully embodied You.
