You know when something has been weighing on you, yet every attempt to explain it seems to come out wrong? You might recognise the feeling immediately but struggle to describe its shape, let alone where it began.
That is one reason creative expression can have a place in therapy. Anit Kaur, a qualified art therapist and contemporary artist, offers online one-to-one art therapy for women who want a private space to engage with their experiences through the creative process.
Giving Feelings Another Form
Art therapy brings art-making into a therapeutic relationship. Alongside conversation, it offers another means of exploring thoughts, emotions and experiences, with a trained therapist supporting the process.
A drawing or other creative response need not tell a tidy story. Colours, marks, shapes and the choices involved in making something can offer starting points for reflection, even when you are still figuring out what you want to say.
Sometimes a feeling becomes easier to approach when there is something tangible in front of you. You can notice what you have made, consider what it brings up and find your own words for it, without needing to arrive with a polished explanation.
You Don’t Need to Know How to Paint
It is easy to hear the word ‘art’ and picture a room full of people who already know what they are doing. In an art lesson, learning a technique or improving a finished piece may be the goal.
Art therapy has a different purpose. Artistic skill, originality and producing something attractive are not measures of whether the therapeutic experience is worthwhile.
If you have never considered yourself creative, you can still be interested in working this way. The invitation is to engage with the process, rather than prove you can paint, draw or produce something worth displaying.
Professional Training Behind the Creative Approach
Anit holds a Master of Arts in Art Therapy from LASALLE College of the Arts, University of the Arts Singapore. Her practice is evidence-based, trauma-informed and centred on the women she works with.
That training informs work that may involve sensitive personal experiences. Art therapy calls for professional judgement in the therapeutic relationship, as well as an understanding of how creative expression can contribute to the work.
Anit has used creativity and self-expression in workshops and one-to-one work with women since 2019. Her advocacy for survivors of abuse grew from 2022, adding another dimension to her professional interest in the experiences of women who have been silenced.
One-to-One Support From Your Own Space
Anit offers individual sessions online to women internationally. Based between Singapore and the UK, she also works with women outside those locations.
For someone fitting therapy around work or family responsibilities, the online format removes the need to travel to a studio. You can consider an individual appointment with Anit from somewhere familiar, which may make the prospect of trying a new approach feel more approachable.
Her contemporary paintings draw on themes of faith, healing and feminine strength. That artistic work gives her relationship with creativity a personal dimension alongside her professional art therapy training.
