Imagery and Visual Expression in Therapy
Images as means of expression have fascinated and spoken to me for a long time. Early in my life my interest in images expressed itself in art, first as a young child drawing, then responding to works of art and enjoying the life conveyed through colors, forms, and lines that created recognizable images and suggested different moods. Yet it has been a far-reaching and circuitous journey to syn- thesize imagery and visual expression in the present form.
I returned to the expressive aspects of art through my training as a painter. The centering, transformative, and spir- itual aspects of art emerged as I sought out art in times of personal turmoil. Later I discovered in my own art, as well as in others' expressions, as a teacher and an art therapist, that many times we ex- press more through visual means than we are consciously aware of doing.
