Let's bust some art therapy myths! 🎨✨

You don't have to be an artist, a kid, or even know what to say to benefit from art therapy!

Art therapy is about the creative process, not the final product. It's a space for self-expression, connection, and exploration, no artistic experience required. 💛

Feeling inspired and reenergized after spending the past few days in Charlotte at the American Art Therapy Association Conference! 🎨✨

There’s something so special about connecting and reconnecting with fellow art therapists, sharing ideas, learning from one another, and celebrating our shared passion for the healing power of art.

It’s a rare and wonderful experience to be in a space with 850+ people who speak the same language of art therapy! 💚

What I’m most grateful for is the incredible community of art therapists who continue to show up for one another, share their knowledge and experiences, and demonstrate such compassion, dedication, and commitment to the growth and integrity of our field.

Heading home with fresh perspectives, renewed passion, and so much gratitude for this community! 🌱

🍂🌈 Try a Fall Rainbow Walk!

Sometimes a little creativity can help us slow down and notice what’s already around us.

On your next walk, look for something red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Keep moving through the rainbow, in order, until your walk is over.

📸 Take a photo of each color you find
🎨 Bring a sketchbook and draw your discoveries
🍁 Or simply notice each color as you go

There’s no right way to do it. Just take your time, get curious, and see how many colors you can find hiding in your surroundings.

Art therapy is about so much more than making art. 🎨💛

The creative process can offer another way to express what’s hard to put into words, make sense of our experiences, build self-awareness, regulate emotions, and reconnect with a sense of safety and empowerment.

There’s no need to be “good at art.” In art therapy, the process matters more than the product. ✨

Today is World Mental Health Day. 💚

A reminder that hope can take many forms: a conversation, a safe space, a creative outlet, a moment of connection, or simply knowing you don’t have to navigate a hard day alone.

At restART studio, we believe every young person deserves access to spaces where they can express themselves, feel seen and supported, and build tools for whatever life brings.

Today, we’re holding onto hope and continuing to create more of it. 🎨

Our latest program year was filled with creativity, connection, growth, and a whole lot of art.🎨🧡

Behind every number is a young person who had a space to create, process, connect, and be supported. From weekly therapy sessions to groups, community events, and local partnerships, we are so grateful for everything we were able to build together this year.

We’re especially grateful to our therapists, interns, community partners, donors, families, and everyone who continues to believe in the power of accessible, creative mental health support for young people.

Here’s a look at our past year in numbers. ✨

What happens when you take away the option to make it “perfect”? ✍️

Creating with your non-dominant hand can invite us to loosen our grip on control, quiet the inner critic, and get curious about the process instead of the product.

Try this practice when you have 15-25 quiet minutes to create without an agenda.

Then take a moment to reflect:
🎨What was it like to make something you couldn’t fully control?
✍️When did you notice judgment or frustration showing up?
🖌️What helped you keep going anyway?
🎨Where else in your life might you practice letting go a little?

There’s no right way for your art to look. That’s kind of the point. 🩵

Save this prompt for a day when perfectionism is feeling a little loud, and follow us for more therapeutic art practices you can try at home.

A little behind the scenes of some of the who behind restART. 🎨💛

We’re so grateful for the thoughtful, creative, and compassionate people who make this work possible. Our art therapy interns bring so much care, curiosity, and heart into the studio each week. We feel incredibly lucky to learn, grow, and create alongside one another!

So much of what happens at restART is about the young people we serve, as it should be. But today, we’re taking a moment to appreciate some of the people behind the scenes who help make that work possible.

Grateful for this team and the energy they bring to restART. ✨
