She has also worked in parent-infant projects, with street children in Mexico, in mainstream education and private practice.
Her clinical practice has developed in Mexico, Catalonia, the United Kingdom and Ukraine. She has extensively worked with children from birth to 25.
Since 2010 Marcela has lectured widely on art therapy programs across Europe before joining Â鶹Éçmadou. She also lectures on other art therapy programmes in the UK and Europe.
Marcela is an active member of the European Federation of Art Therapy, working together to strength the profession across Europe.
