JANNEBETH RÖELL, RN, B.F.A.

JANNEBETH RÖELL

Summary

Jannebeth has dedicated her life to medical work based on the principles of Rudolf Steiner. She co-founded and worked for more than fourteen years at the Tobias Clinic in the Netherlands, an outpatient clinic using anthroposophical medical principles where she developed the external therapies. She co-founded the Anthroposophical Nurses Association of America, a nonprofit organization that supported certification courses in anthroposophical nursing for registered nurses and the public. While the pulse of a healer continues as a strong theme in her life, she has also worked as an artist with a wide range of clients, including those with dual diagnosis, aids and the homeless. She now works at her studio and in the field, developing the artwork seen on these web pages. She gives workshops and classes on art topics, home health care, and anthroposophy.
