Heart Art Healing aims to provide services to groups and individuals experiencing grief, trauma, or crisis of any kind because we believe that art and creativity can be an essential part of the healing experience.

All of our programs include a combination of guided imagery exercises, individual exploration, and meaning making as well as an array of artistic mediums.
Through this reflective and creative practice participants develop unique creations and leave feeling empowered and better connected to self and to community. Each piece of art is filled with personal meaning and symbolism. This inspirational and enriching experience opens doors for hope and healing.
