Art Therapy is about the creative process (not the finished art) expressing, exploring and discovering the inner world of the client with the guidance of a trained
Art Therapist. You don’t need to have any artistic abilities or knowledge of art methods to work and gain the benefits of Art Therapy. The created artwork and its intended or subconscious meaning are unique, spoken by the imaginative la

nguage of the individual’s inner self. It is through this not spoken dialogue and self-expression that experiences we all face as children, adolescence and adults can be transformed into deeper understanding and self awareness. Emotions and feelings often difficult to find a voice are given a vehicle for outlet and a canvas for expression. Art and Creative Therapies provide a proven beneficial and powerful process to facilitate this healing. Myself as a Transpersonal Art Therapist, I believe strongly in the holistic philosophy that the Mind, Body and Soul must be connected and balanced to be truly healthy. Treating the mind without looking at the physical or treating the body without nurturing the soul doesn’t promote a long-term healthy maintained existence. Our energy levels, our general daily health and our positive, motivational thoughts must together be given greater understanding and healing.
