The Power of Arts Therapy | Laurence Vandenborre | TEDxLASALLE

This video made me cry to death .I am an artist .And i hope art therapy is my future job .As someone who has experienced a war, abuse, a loss of loved ones and my parents during childhood i am so related to this video .I steped into the art long time ago but i could never express myself enough because my images, my mind was blocked, my vision was blocked and i became angry coz i felt helpless .Because art was the only thing that was left for me .I started psychoterapy last year and those images in my head that were frozen started to be clear and i steped into my art power, painting as never before .With hand that was broken and abused .With art i transformed it into my super power.I had support and i am blessed because of it .And i started to heal .I encourage all people to draw, to paint, to step into their power no matter how painful or happy it is, because when you step into vision of your best future self you can create an amazing art and life stories on Canvas, and you can help to teach others how to do that, thank you for this and God bless 🙏💙

Thank you for this talk. I have been utilizing art as a way to express and release emotions - and to process feelings - for a long time. Art has literally saved my life and has given me greater purpose in my life.
