Art is a beautiful way for people to share personal thoughts, experiences, and emotions thaT are not easily expressed in words. The process of creating art is therapeutic and can improve mental health, decrease anxiety, build self-esteem and improve social skills. Marissa Byzwabic local art therapist and founder of creative routes mobile art studio says, “art therapy is a mental health field or mental health profession.”

Byzwabic says, “the kinda cool thing about art therapy is that a lot of people maybe don’t realize is initially is that art therapy can be used for anyone.”

Art therapy complements conventional healthcare for behavioral health conditions, offering a fun way for clients to express feelings and start healing. For more information about Creative Routes Art Therapy and their many workshops simply follow them on Facebook.
