The benefits of Art Therapy and a possible career path

Hello friend, this is Timothy Kimo Brien head instigator of Create Art Podcast where we help you tame your inner critic and create more than you consume. I do this through commentary, conversations, projects and interviews and for 2021 I am doing webstreams for those who would like to watch versus just listen.

Today's topic is about art therapy and how it can improve your art practice and your mental state. I will be detailing my experiences with art therapy as both a client and a witness. Since I am not a licensed therapist, I'll be presenting a few articles on the topic to demonstrate how art therapy can help. Lastly, I will go over what it takes to become an art therapist if that is a calling that you have in your life. You don't need a couch for today's episode, but get comfy and listen in as I talk about art therapy.
