The Healing Canvas: Exploring the Role of Art Therapy in Mental Health (free)

**The Healing Canvas: Exploring the Role of Art Therapy in Mental Health Preservation** **Description:** In a world where stress, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion are increasingly common, art therapy offers a gentle yet profound path to healing and self-discovery. Join us for an enlightening online discussion on the relevance and transformative role of art therapy in preserving and enhancing mental health. Learn how creative expression helps release emotions, calm the mind, and restore inner balance — even for those who believe they “aren’t artistic.” Imagine a person coping with grief — finding it hard to articulate their pain. Through guided art therapy, they begin painting abstract forms and colors that reflect their emotions. Over time, this non-verbal expression helps them externalize loss, uncover meaning, and gradually move toward acceptance. This is the quiet power of art in emotional healing. Discover how different forms of art — painting, sketching, collage, and color therapy — can support individuals facing anxiety, grief, burnout, or self-doubt. Led by Annu, aan NLP Practitioner, ICF-Certified Coach, and Art Therapy Facilitator, this session bridges psychology and creativity to illuminate how art fosters resilience, mindfulness, and emotional well-being. **Who Should Attend:** Psychologists, counselors, coaches, educators, wellness practitioners, and anyone passionate about mental health and creative healing. Format: Online interactive discussion + Q&A Duration: 60 minutes
