What is Art Therapy?
Art therapy is a technique rooted in the idea that creative expression can foster healing and mental well-being.
In the psychology context, creative expression refers to the process of conveying thoughts, feelings, ideas, or insights through various forms of artistic and creative activities. This can include painting, writing, music, dance, sculpture, and other forms of art. Creative expression is recognized for its therapeutic benefits and its role in personal development and psychological well-being.
Creative expression is seen as a fundamental human process that transcends mere artistic ability or talent. It is a means of exploring one's identity, processing emotions, and communicating with others on a deeply personal level. psychologists study creative expression not only to understand the mechanisms behind creativity but also to use it as a tool for therapy (e.g., art therapy, music therapy), enhancing cognitive functions, and promoting emotional healing and growth.

Meet Huxley
Huxley, a former IT Business Analyst, once found himself in an elevator with the CEO of a Fortune 500 company. Sadly, the elevator was heading down as Huxley was ascending to the lunch room to see his girlfriend, Patty.
Huxley took the CEO’s advice to heart, “You gotta get your priorities straight,” and has been meditating ever since. He also enjoys art and makes sure to collect a few acorns each day.
