My experience as I engage in creative media process ...
When drawing or painting is experienced as process, I know myself more fully, thus confirming my wholeness, so easy to forget my wholeness as I engage in everyday life. You don't have to be an artist to benefit from Gestalt art therapy. Music and visualizations support and ground me as a step to get in touch with my creative capacity. there are parts of myself that may not be easily contacted in a busy worlds of work, study and family life. By contacting these parts, I recover my energy and feel my wholeness.
Your endeavors may be may be stick figures or blobs.
What matters is the process and emotional impact as you draw, paint or create. What you notice, what you become aware of, what you remember as you draw are what are important and together we explore and make sense of. Art is a powerful tool to explore your life and have a better understanding of your situation. Doing art is a way to experience something new and experience doing something different.
Art is an extension of the self and can be a meaningful and powerful way to express what words cannot say. Exploring and processing personal metaphors can be powerful in overcoming challenges. As you express yourself with art there is beauty and sacredness in the silence.
What does Gestalt art therapy online look like? You have your materials with you near your computer or what ever devise we are meeting up on. You may use pastels or textas and some plain paper, or other creative media. I demonstrate the process then guide you through the process using you art materials.
Art is often not much to look at. What is important is the benefit. Working with creative media helps clients focus and process grief and fear, express anger and anxiety , relax and feel joy.
