For anyone | No Art Experience Needed | Online & In person
“Art has the power to render sorrow beautiful, make loneliness a shared experience, and transform despair into hope.”
― Brené Brown
Art Therapy as a Non-verbal Way Bridges the Gap Between Emotions and Words
Art therapy, is not about making art pretty nor attending an art class, it's more like a expressive way without feeling the awkwardness to find the "correct" words. When art therapy is combined with traditional talk therapy, offers a unique and powerful approach to personal growth and healing. This integrative method allows you to express your thoughts and emotions through creative outlets, which can often lead to deeper insights than verbal communication alone. By engaging in artistic activities, you can freely explore your feelings in a safe environment, facilitating a more profound understanding of your challenges and experiences without feeling embarrassed to "name" them with words. This combination empowers you to take an active role in your healing journey. The creative process can enhance your self-esteem and foster resilience as you witness your progress and creativity unfold. The synergy of art therapy and talk therapy provides a holistic framework that nurtures emotional and psychological well-being, ultimately leading to more effective coping strategies and personal empowerment. Art Therapy works for folks who aren't good at using words, who don't speak English in the US, or English is their second language.
Rediscovery
Art making, by any creative means, brings the unconscious to the conscious without words. Words or language can limit our world or experiences. Let yourself rediscover what's in you, and let the world hear you!
Reconstruct
With professionally trained art therapist's facilitation, there is a space for you to recreate your story safely, move forward from the past trauma or sorrow, and get a chance to reconstruct your story, your life, and you!
Reforming
Art & neuroscience is a powerful couple! Scientific research has proved that art therapy reforms neural circuits, reforms how our brain reacts, and can transform how we think about ourselves and the world.
