Sometimes words fail and we need a way to express ourselves and the issues present. Art is an avenue to the self and creative expression is a means to cultivate self-awareness and provides space to represent issues being brought up in therapy. To be willing to be uncomfortable and explore a form of expression that we may not have done since childhood, takes bravery and openness. This may be a new way to look at life and understand how we are dealing with it. Unfolding with gentleness we seek the truth of our own being and how we want to face life in the here and now.

I am a Counselor and an Art Therapist because I personally know how life changing therapy can be. I witnessed a school shooting at Northern Illinois University while I was in undergrad in 2008. I was at a complete loss as to how to begin to understand what had happened. The art program that I was a member of was an incredibly close community. The support I found there, along with individual therapy and my personal art making allowed me to process what I was feeling. This experience directly impacted the direction that I saw my life taking.

Art Therapy
How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
