What is Therapeutic Art?

Therapeutic Art is a creative process that focuses on self-expression, mindfulness, and emotional exploration through artmaking. It’s not about creating a perfect piece of art — it’s about connecting with yourself through color, shape, and movement.

Unlike clinical Art Therapy, which is a licensed mental health practice, Therapeutic Art emphasizes personal growth and well-being rather than diagnosis or treatment. It invites individuals to slow down, reflect, and release emotions in a safe, non-verbal way.

Through guided creative exercises, participants often experience:

  • Reduced stress and increased relaxation

  • Greater emotional awareness and clarity

  • A boost in mood, confidence, and self-esteem

  • A renewed sense of calm and connection 

As a Creative Wellness Coach, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space for exploration and growth. My role is to facilitate the creative process and guide individuals toward self-discovery and balance — not to offer clinical therapy or counseling.

Please note: I am not a licensed therapist. Therapeutic Art is designed to complement overall wellness practices, not replace medical or psychological treatment.
