Sometimes it can be hard to talk about our hopes, dreams, concerns and issues. We need a safe space to slowly open up and feel seen. Through the use of expressive arts therapy, we can work together until we feel comfortable expressing things verbally, or not. Through my experiences as a therapist, I have learned other ways of expressing our grief and trauma without having to talk about it. Maybe you have only been in talk therapy before and can't imagine another way of doing things. But there are other options

Have you been feeling 'crowded out', like there is no room for you to feel, to slow down and sort out what's right for you, and to enjoy your life? Perhaps self-critique, anger, sadness, physical tension and pain, or fear get so big on the inside that you feel crowded out that way? Perhaps you are so used to deferring to the wants, needs and ideas of others in your external life that it's hard to hear your own internal compass.

Ideal clients respect the boundaries of the relationship and know when and how to use their therapist (who helps). It's an old joke that people come to therapy because of someone else who really needs it, but to me, we're all a little (or a lot) blind to our own stuff. Therapy is, or should be, a safe place. Most seasoned therapists are still in it because they find it effective and personally gratifying. I guess I'm one.
