Nancy Thygesen, Heart to Art - Therapist/Artist
I was always a creative person and a mover. As part of my own healing I dove into art and movement, ultimately getting my Pilates certification and masters in psychotherapy and spirituality specializing in art therapy, leading me to using these same tools in helping others. I saw how both art and movement heal in addictions and cancer recovery, sexual abuse and trauma. The creative process brings expression to feelings that bypass the logical mind and words cannot always express. This modality helps you in finding relief from anxiety and worry, and clears a pathway to move forward in healing when the psyche is ready. The art is a visual record of your journey and can be drawn on down the road for greater meaning. Not an artist? No problem. I emphasize that artistic talent is not a requirement and I use a variety of invitations for each person's comfort level.
