Kapiti Art Therapy Corinne Allan

About

I'm a qualified Art Therapyst I work with children and adults in my Art Studio in Waikanae near Wellington.

Story

I am a skilled Art Therapist, I draw upon mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy. I use natural earth colours and encourage clients to mix their own personal colours. I use different techniques to support self expression of emotions in a non verbal gentle way. Colours tell a story and colours can help individuals to balance heal themselves.

Every person will unconsciously mix or choose colours to their personal preference. Through using simple painting techniques you will notice over a period of 6-8 weeks a significant change with the use of colour that will heal trauma, shocks, unhappiness etc. As this is a non verbal technique it is ideal for everyone to connect with their emotions in a safe way. As aspergers, dyspraxia, dyslexia, dyscaculia, ADD, autism, anxiety are an imbalance of the left brain and Art therapy will stimulate the right side of the brain which over time balance symptoms out.
