Lauren's Journey: Healing Through Art and Faith

The hope in expressive arts therapy is that it allows kind of a different depth of experience, which I have always really loved, the kind of fluidity and openness.
Ever wondered how art and faith can intertwine to foster healing? In this episode of 'Voices in Recovery', Lauren opens up about her unique path as both an art therapist and a pastor. She paints a vivid picture of how expressive arts therapy can offer a sanctuary for those seeking solace and self-expression. Lauren shares her mission to build an inclusive and understanding community within her church, aiming to mend the fractures often found in faith-based settings.
Her dedication to mental health is evident as she discusses the daily challenges of maintaining stability, especially in the face of external stressors like pandemics. This conversation with host David Lewry is not just about therapy or religion; it's about finding your own way to heal and grow. Whether you're struggling with your mental health, seeking spiritual guidance, or simply curious about the power of art, Lauren's story offers valuable insights and inspiration.
