My Creative Therapy Journey: Rediscovering Passion and Purpose

My Creative Therapy Journey: Rediscovering Passion and Purpose

Embracing the Power of Creativity

My name is Corey Rogers, and this is the story of how I rediscovered my passion and purpose through the transformative power of creative therapy. For years, I felt lost, uninspired, and disconnected from the things that once brought me joy. It wasn't until I took a chance on exploring the world of art-based healing that my life truly began to change.

Growing up, I had always been a creative soul. I loved to paint, write poetry, and lose myself in the act of crafting something unique and meaningful. But somewhere along the way, as the responsibilities of adulthood piled up and the demands of a high-stress career consumed me, I found myself drifting further and further away from those creative pursuits. The spark that had once burned so brightly within me slowly began to fade, and I found myself feeling increasingly unfulfilled and disconnected from the core of who I was.

The Breaking Point

It was during a particularly challenging time in my life that I finally reached a breaking point. I was struggling with anxiety, depression, and a deep sense of burnout, and I knew that something had to change. I had tried traditional talk therapy, but it just didn't seem to be resonating with me in the way I needed. I craved a more holistic, embodied approach to healing – one that would allow me to tap into the creative wellspring that had been lying dormant within me for far too long.

That's when I stumbled upon the concept of creative therapy. I had heard about the potential benefits of incorporating art, music, and other creative modalities into the therapeutic process, but I had never really considered it for myself. But as I dove deeper into the research and began to explore the various approaches to creative therapy, I felt a spark of hope ignite within me.

Discovering the Power of Creative Therapy

I decided to take the plunge and try out a creative therapy program in my local area. From the moment I stepped into the studio, I could feel a palpable shift within me. The space was filled with a sense of warmth, creativity, and acceptance – a stark contrast to the sterile, clinical environments I had grown accustomed to in traditional therapy settings.

The first session was a revelation. Under the guidance of my therapist, Poppy Moore, I was gently encouraged to explore a range of creative modalities, from painting and collage-making to poetry and journaling. I was surprised by how quickly I began to feel a sense of release and self-expression that I had been craving for so long.

As I continued to engage in the creative therapy process, I started to notice profound shifts not only in my mental and emotional wellbeing but in my overall sense of purpose and direction. The act of creating, whether it was through visual art, writing, or even just simple crafting, allowed me to tap into a wellspring of creativity and self-discovery that had been dormant for far too long.

Rediscovering My Passion and Purpose

Through the power of creative therapy, I began to rediscover the passions and interests that had once brought me so much joy and fulfillment. I found myself drawn to the meditative qualities of painting, losing myself in the rhythmic strokes of the brush as I explored the interplay of color and texture. The act of journaling, once a chore, became a cherished ritual that allowed me to process my thoughts and emotions in a deeper, more meaningful way.

But perhaps the most profound shift I experienced was in my sense of purpose and direction. As I delved deeper into the creative therapy process, I began to uncover a deep well of creativity and self-expression that had been lying dormant within me. I discovered a newfound love for writing and a desire to share my story with others who might be struggling with similar challenges.

It was during one particularly powerful art therapy session that I had a revelation. As I sat surrounded by the vibrant, expressive works of art that I had created, I felt a surge of pride and accomplishment – not just in the works themselves, but in the journey that had led me to this point. I realized that my struggles with anxiety, depression, and burnout had not been a weakness, but rather a strength – a testament to my resilience and my ability to navigate the challenges of life with creativity and authenticity.

Embracing the Transformative Power of Creative Therapy

As I reflect on my creative therapy journey, I am in awe of the profound impact it has had on my life. Through this powerful process, I have not only rediscovered my passion and purpose but have also gained a deeper understanding of myself and the world around me.

One of the most remarkable aspects of creative therapy, in my experience, has been its ability to transcend the boundaries of traditional mental health treatment. Instead of simply focusing on symptom management or problem-solving, creative therapy encourages a more holistic, embodied approach to healing. By tapping into the wellspring of creativity that resides within all of us, we are able to access deeper layers of self-expression, emotional processing, and personal growth.

For me, the act of creating – whether it was through painting, writing, or even just simple crafting – became a powerful tool for self-exploration and transformation. It allowed me to access and process emotions that I had been suppressing for years, to confront and work through the underlying issues that were contributing to my mental health challenges. And perhaps most importantly, it reignited a sense of passion, purpose, and joy that had been absent from my life for far too long.

The Healing Power of Creativity

But the benefits of creative therapy extend far beyond just the individual. By tapping into the inherent power of creativity, we can unlock new pathways for healing, connection, and growth – not just for ourselves, but for our communities and the world at large.

In a world that often prioritizes productivity, efficiency, and the bottom line, the act of creative self-expression can be a radical act of resistance. It allows us to slow down, to connect with our innermost selves, and to tap into the wellspring of imagination and innovation that lies within us all. And when we come together to share our creative expressions, we have the power to build bridges, foster empathy, and cultivate a more just and equitable world.

This is why I am so passionate about sharing my creative therapy journey with others. I believe that the transformative power of creativity has the potential to heal not just individuals, but entire communities. And by harnessing the inherent creativity that resides within each and every one of us, we can unlock new pathways for personal growth, collective healing, and social change.

Embracing the Creative Therapy Movement

As I continue to navigate my own creative therapy journey, I am continually inspired by the growing movement of individuals and organizations that are championing the power of creative expression in mental health and wellness. From virtual counseling services that incorporate digital creative therapy to online mental health support programs that offer art-based therapy programs, the landscape of creative therapy is rapidly evolving and expanding.

And it's not just in the realm of mental health that we're seeing the transformative power of creativity. Across a wide range of fields – from education and social work to business and the arts – there is a growing recognition of the inherent value of creative expression as a tool for personal and professional development, community-building, and social impact.

As someone who has personally experienced the life-changing benefits of creative therapy, I am excited to see this movement gaining traction and momentum. I believe that by embracing the power of creativity, we have the potential to not only transform individual lives but to create a more just, equitable, and compassionate world for all.

A Call to Action

If you're reading this and feeling inspired by my story, I encourage you to explore the world of creative therapy for yourself. Whether it's through individual art therapy sessions, group creative workshops, or even just a simple journaling practice, there are so many ways to tap into the healing power of creativity.

And if you're a mental health professional, educator, or community leader, I urge you to consider incorporating digital therapy resources and healing through creativity into your own work. By creating spaces and programs that prioritize creative self-expression, we can empower individuals and communities to access deeper levels of healing, growth, and transformation.

Together, let's continue to celebrate and amplify the transformative power of creative therapy. By embracing the inherent creativity that resides within each and every one of us, we have the power to create a more just, equitable, and compassionate world – one brushstroke, one poem, one act of self-expression at a time.


In conclusion, my creative therapy journey has been a profound and life-changing experience. Through the power of art, writing, and self-expression, I have rediscovered my passion, purpose, and a deep sense of connection to myself and the world around me. I encourage anyone who is struggling with mental health challenges or simply seeking a more holistic approach to wellness to explore the transformative potential of creative therapy.

By embracing the inherent creativity that resides within each and every one of us, we have the power to unlock new pathways for personal and collective healing, growth, and transformation. So let's continue to celebrate and amplify the creative therapy movement, and inspire others to tap into the wellspring of creativity that lies within.

Laughter, they say, is the best medicine. But have you ever wondered why? Or how we can harness the psychological benefits of laughter in our everyday lives and during therapy sessions? My name is Lucas Jones, and I'm deeply passionate about exploring the psychology of laughter and integrating its healing powers into therapeutic practices.


At 35, I've spent the last year diving headfirst into the niche field of the psychology of laughter. It's not just about cracking jokes; it's about understanding the intricate ways in which laughter can be a transformative tool for emotional and psychological well-being. My mission is to peel back the layers of laughter, from its physiological impacts to its role in social bonding and mental health recovery.


My approach is unconventional yet grounded in empathy and scientific curiosity. I believe that every chuckle and giggle holds a story, an underlying emotion waiting to be acknowledged and embraced. In my sessions, I create a safe space where laughter isn't just welcomed; it's encouraged. A space where clients can let down their guards, explore their emotions, and discover the therapeutic benefits of laughter in a warm, understanding environment.


I am fascinated by the way laughter connects us, breaks down barriers, and opens up new pathways for healing. It's a universal language that transcends words, yet speaks volumes about our inner world. Through my work, I aim to help individuals tap into this powerful resource, using laughter as a bridge to deeper self-awareness and emotional resilience.


Commitment to my clients is at the core of everything I do. I'm not just here to guide; I'm here to walk alongside you, sharing in your moments of joy, your breakthroughs, and even your challenges. Together, we'll explore the transformative power of laughter, uncovering new insights and strategies for coping with life's ups and downs.


It's been an incredible journey so far, one that has only reinforced my belief in the profound impact laughter can have on our mental health. Every day, I'm inspired by the stories of those I work with, and I remain dedicated to uncovering more about this fascinating topic.


If you're curious about how laughter can play a role in your therapeutic journey or simply want to learn more about the psychology behind it, I'd love to connect. Remember, in the realm of healing and growth, sometimes laughter truly is the first step.


In laughter and in health,

Lucas Jones
