Art Therapist Pearl Taylor has envisioned a therapeutic art studio that addresses and attends to the inherent health found in the creative process.
Maybe you've tried psychology and it didn't get to the heart of what you were going through? maybe you couldn't find words for whats going on, or have often struggled with "just words" in the therapeutic process. Sometimes, with PTSD, BPD, or Identity formation, we need a tangible object to sit with and reflect on. The ideal client to the Thou Art Studio is seeking creative expression, a tangible object for reflecting on, or maybe wanting to push paint around before the words come. Come get messy on the outside to articulate the messy on the inside. Pearl can sit with both messes with you.

Art Therapy Counsellors
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 behavioural 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.
