CRI

Cri (pronounced Cree) Gabriele, founder and CEO of Messwork, MFA, BA, CCEP, deconstructs and reshapes as part of her creative process, seeking to arrive at synthesis while making (and embracing) a lot of mess. Messwork facilitates a multidisciplinary yet holistic approach to trauma recovery and abundant living, facilitating creatives in transforming wounding to authenticity, utilising mess as a catalyst for growth. With a Bachelor of Psychology and Business from Northeastern University, a Master of Fine Arts in Communications Design from Pratt Institute, and a CCEP, Certified Core Energetics Practitioner designation from the Institute of Core Energetics in New York, Cri integrates complex skill sets into a robust, full-bodied foundation upon which to reinforce her work and practice.

As a creator, practitioner, professor, and facilitator at the graduate level, Cri's psychological and design expertise fuels her methodological and theoretical frameworks and approaches, exploring the inherent nature and connection across somatics, psychology, design, mess, and mess-making to forge her hybrid and catalysing Messwork offerings across both personal and professional spheres.

In her own Messwork, Cri navigated various academic and personal therapeutic territories before finding somatics. A health crisis in her late twenties catapulted her inquiry into more comprehensive healing modalities, punctuating the significance and impact of being treated as a whole rather than a series of fragments. As a result of her own experience, Cri recognises the acute urgency and need to create more vigorous, holistic practices toward growth and rehabilitation, an offering she now extends to her clients, meeting them in their fullness, complexity, and humanity.
