I really dreamed to be an Art therapist at one point in my life as I personally saw the benefits of it. Unfortunately what is required logistically i:e licenses, insurance coverage, and control from "the systems" takes away the joy from just being able to help others through creative & expressive means.
Have a look at my live feed, I painted as an art therapist for the cancer society and the cure kids foundation and now i paint for true crime. My channel is growing fast. Art therapy is a distraction and fun for my clients as they go through chemo.
How are you I am artist but my still learning English now.Can I apply for the art treaty? Which university can I apply or PHD? I have MFA in Fine Arts.
I just applied for grad school to obtain a Masters in Counseling with a focus on Art Therapy. I am neurodivergent, likely on the spectrum and I have a son on the spectrum. I have navigated the systems available as both a patient and a parent and I feel there needs to be more professionals in this field. I believe art therapy is a powerful tool for autistic clients to express and access a part of themselves that society doesn’t see. Art is such a flexible field. While I am very tactile and sensory motivated with the art process, my son gets the most benefit from digital art and building. It is my wish to cater to the unique ways individuals think so I can help them access new skills that will give them the most benefit for their needs.
Magic, mysticism and myth to treat people ? 🙄🤡. “I’m so glad you used the words “dark sciences”….oh my word. I know art is therapy. I’m an artist. But I have to wonder if she’s a satanist. 🤮
This was so beneficial to watch and take in. I am currently a certified Death Doula and an Art Therapy Undergrad. I hope to be able to incorporate the two and more skills and training to help my intersecting communities and allow people to heal and embrace a dignified death as well as guiding those around them with grief and ceremony. Thank you for sharing.
This is amazing! I'm working towards becoming a full spectrum Doula (currently I'm a certified Death Doula) and get a master's in art therapy to build a solid foundation for my services to help my communities. I am so grateful to be joining another wonderful community with AATA!
I remember when I was younger I was skilled in Art and Story building but due too a diabetic seizure i lost the degree of art I had but I still had my skills in story building and story making so I remember with my therapist just making these stories about my character this world and the way I felt affect said characters and worlds, I remember sometimes I would forget I was even in therapy just discussing these stories during which allowed me to express myself in a way I had always struggled too as I do have autism and extreme social anxiety but it did help, I still make characters too this day while I haven’t wrote any books or novels yet I plan on one day making it. Thank you guys for helping others out as my therapist did.
i found a unique and interesting form of art therapy which i use to combat my constant mental illness. i've found that if u can find an art form which u enjoy it can then it is an excellent method to maintain stable mental health. Art as medicine who knew? The thing is when i was a 95 out of 100 in being mentally ill and suffering and being in an extreme amount of pain, i found a couple forms of art which helped me feel better. So u follow ur passions, u learn about them for moments and laughter. It's fun. Then u heal. Probably about a 25 out of 100 now. But these things can be time well spent. i suppose, to some extent, i am an art therapist.
#DrOziengbe on RU-vid can reverse autism with herbs and it’s completely perfect. I used it for my son and so far his speech is verbal and social skills is normal as he can now also respond to everything positively on his own.,.
When my brother passed away I immediately began painting. The day it happened i painted. It was such a traumatic event for me but painting, drawing, writing and taking pictures helped me to really heal. It helped me to better understand my PTSD. once i started to research what i was doing i fell in love. i am so interested by art therapy. thank you for this discussion! i hope that art therapy becomes even more popular especially for trauma survivors.
@@goodgrief888 it does! originally i was doing talk therapy but had a lot of trouble talking about it. now i’m in art therapy and my life has changed for the better. so much so that i’m going to school for art therapy now 😁
@@miabrown7304 THAT’S AWESOME! And I feel exactly the same way! Not a brother, but my parents. I can’t imagine how it must feel to lose a sibling. That must be very painful. But I definitely believe in the healing power of creativity. We may never be “cured” of grief, but I’m learning to move beyond it with art, writing, and sharing with others who are in a similar situation. And now I’m going to school to become an art therapist also.
As an autistic person who was diagnosed late in life, the fact that she wants to focus on autistic strengths and the fact that she knows that literature about autism doesn't paint a full picture of us makes her better than most people who work with autistic clients.
Hi, great discussion, thank you for sharing. Is there anywhere I can find research papers on the connection between Art Therapy and Neuroscience? I am particularly interested in developmental trauma/complex PTSD and Art Therapy, any advice would be truly appreciated x
I'm currently working on a Visual Arts Multimedia degree, with a minor in Psychology. I would love to pursue a career in Art Therapy. Although, I am wondering if taking Clinical Neuroscience would be a good course to take?
I don't know if this is trauma or not, but as a child it was difficult to realize that the magical world that I believed in did not exist. That the trees will never be able to answer me. That only the cruel and senseless world of adults existed. This unreleased song really made me remember with nostalgia what I felt as a child ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pchhdVJgEgE.html
Thank you Dr. Judy Rubin for your inspiring work. I love that the 'Art Lady' used everyday objects and materials that people had around the home. I follow this same thinking in my work, especially during the past year of the pandemic with telehealth. Accessibility is key to help art serve as a visual voice and connect with others.
I would have loved this as a child, but I have learned how to do art therapy on my own and even involve it in some of my videos. I love how expressive I can be without judgement when it comes to my art.
