The MTM Institute- 4 mins, 26 secs An art therapist, neurographic art specialist, and life coach, partnering with us to bring creative healing to teams and communities.
Invite Ryna to lead a workshop, co-host a retreat, or speak at your next corporate or community event with #BeauitifullyStrategic Partnerships on Meetup.
Ryna (Karine) Arshakyan is a certified art and special education teacher, an experienced art therapist, a neurographica specialist, life coach, and holistic healer. She immigrated to the U.S. from Armenia in 2001 and brings over three decades of practical work with students, individuals, and groups.
Ryna offers international workshops, holistic retreats, online and in-person art therapy, and NeurographicaArt Therapy sessions designed for personal growth, stress reduction, and renewed creativity.
Neurographica Art Therapy blends creative art practice with simple psychology-based steps. The process guides participants to draw free-flowing lines and connect them with shapes and intersections, then transform the piece through intentional strokes and color. Working on paper, the method helps reframe emotions, reduce stress, and stimulate creativity by engaging neural pathways — a way to translate internal things (thoughts, emotions) into a visible piece that can be worked through.
Clients report measurable reductions in stress and clearer ways to approach problems after short sessions. Example outcomes:
Typical session results emphasize process over product — each step is practical and repeatable: draw lines, observe shapes, apply intentional strokes, and reflect — a simple step-by-step method that integrates creativity with practical psychology.
Ryna shares insights on her YouTube channel, “I See You,” where she demonstrates short neurographic art activities, guided meditations, and breathwork. She regularly hosts events and is open to co-hosting and partnership opportunities with retreat centers, schools, therapists, and corporate wellness programs. If you’re seeking a collaborator to introduce an art-based method to your audience, Ryna offers customizable offerings to match your goals and timeframes.

See what’s coming soon and find the perfect experience — from one-hour creativity boosts to multi-day retreats on Ryna’s website. Most offerings teach neurographic art as a practical way to shift mindset and work with emotions through simple art practice.
Each session introduces neurographic art — a method that uses lines and connecting shapes on paper to externalize thoughts and gently re-pattern responses. The process engages creativity and basic psychological reflection to help participants reduce stress, notice emotions, and take a practical next step toward clarity.
Audience: Teams, students, therapists, and creative communities. Duration: 3 hours. Capacity: Up to 20 participants (customizable).
Outcomes typically include reduced stress during the session, a clearer way to approach problems, and a renewed sense of creativity — practical results you can measure in team engagement and individual feedback.
Ryna leads multi-day retreats that combine meditation, breathwork, and deeper neurographic art practice. She also builds custom programs for schools and corporate wellness teams focused on creativity, resilience, and emotional intelligence.
