The Power of the Voice: Art and Healing

For this new year I am excited and honored to be able to post, with her permission, the artwork of one of my clients. This is my client's journey into exploring her experience of anxiety through the use of slam poetry. She wished to share this with others in the hopes of opening up more dialog around mental health issues, as those of us who struggle with depression and anxiety often also experience profound isolation. Thanks to her willingness to be vulnerable and show up as her authentic self I am able to share with you the healing power that voice and art play on the path of healing. By expressing raw emotion and connecting to ourselves and our bodies we can step into truly accepting who we are, recognizing the wholeness that is always within us, always available in the moment of now.
