skill, experience, warmth
Biography
Theresa Sundt, an Art and History of Art BA graduate of Haifa University, has always worked with colour as an art teacher and as a professional artist. In 2003 she became a certified colour therapist under the guidance of June Mc Leod, Theo Gimbell and Peter Mandel. Since then and until recently she worked as a colour therapy consultant for BIOPTRON AG and as a massage and colour therapist in her Brighton clinic.
In 2017 Theresa created the popular portable and affordable colour therapy torch, in order to make colour therapy available in every household. She is the author of three books The Art of Colour Therapy, Tried and Tested Colour Therapy Treatments and Know Your Colour Personality that she co-authored with Alison Standish. Her artwork can be seen in many different places in the form of murals, big floor mandalas, children books’ illustration and woven tapestries.
She currently focuses her work on ‘Mindful Colour’, which is a series of independent workshops for adults or children. With hands-on experiences, the participants explore and immerse themselves to the healing side of colour through art, light, movement and sound. See colour-discovery.com
