The expressive arts combine the visual arts, movement, drama, music, writing, mindfulness, and meditation, and other creative processes to foster deep personal growth and community development.

A person is not required to have an artistic ability to use or benefit from expressive art therapy.

​

Expressive art therapy adds a unique dimension to the “traditional” therapy approach that allows the clients to empower themselves, and to promote well-being.

​

Expressive arts therapy can be used as a part of the treatment strategy for a wide variety of behavioral, emotional, mental health conditions, such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, illness, and stress.

​

Expressive art therapy helps children and adults of all ages. It can be done in individual, couple, and family therapy settings.

I completed my expressive art therapy certification from the Institute of Creative Mindfulness.
