Art Therapy
What is Art Therapy?
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses creative processes such as drawing, painting, sculpture, or other forms of artistic expression to help individuals explore emotions, develop self-awareness, manage stress, and improve self-esteem. It is based on the idea that creative expression can foster healing and mental well-being.
The clinical practice is guided by a trained art therapist, who helps clients use art-based assessments and interventions as a means of communication and self-discovery—especially when verbal expression is difficult.
My Approach
As a Registered Art Therapist (ATR), my approach combines creative expression with evidence-based therapeutic methods to support growth and healing.
Psychodynamic dream work – to uncover, challenge, and alleviate unconscious tensions that impact waking life.
DBT-based mindfulness interventions – process-oriented strategies to help individuals creatively regulate stress and emotions.
Person-centered care – structured creative practices that support individuals in exploring their therapeutic goals and potential for change.
