“Art speaks where words are unable to explain.”
Welcome to Embody You Expressive Therapies
We believe in exploring all aspects of one’s self to form an integrative approach to healing.
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses creative processes such as drawing, painting, collage or sculpture as the therapeutic modality.
Art therapy offers a multitude of benefits that can enhance emotional, mental and physical well-being and offers an alternative to traditional talk therapy by using creative expression to explore inner experiences.
Working with images, symbols, and materials allows subconscious thoughts and emotions to surface safely and be understood with support.
No artistic skill is required, only an openness to the process. Through creative exploration and reflective conversation, we work together to build insight, resilience, and emotional wellbeing at a pace that feels safe for you.
