The Science of Art Therapy

Uzma Jafri
About this episode

Shazia Siddiqi MA, LPC, ATR-BC of Let’s Art About It studio rejoins us today to talk about art therapy, a misunderstood or poorly understood therapeutic modality for trauma, anxiety, or depression. She’s here to explain the science behind it, and your co-hosts will share some of their experiences with art that accidentally healed them or their loved ones. Find out some easy ways you can use art therapy in your virtual school or homeschool schedule! We will use whatever we need to protect our mental health and that of our kids. Wouldn’t you?

The sound on this episode is not our usual quality, but it’s the jinn in Uzma’s computer that did it. You’ll still get a lot of it God willing.
