Louise Bourgeois "Ode A L'Oubli"
French-American artist, Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) said "art is restoration: the idea is to repair the damages that
are inflicted in life, to make something that is fragmented- which is what
fear and anxiety do to a person - into something whole"

I believe people have untapped strengths.
It is so exciting when a person discovers their strengths and capabilities.
This is part of the hope for the future. Emotional Origins is a place where confidence and
new skills can be developed and positive change can occur.

Have you ever felt like you keep retelling the same life story over and over again
without improvement or feel like you are entering a familiar cycle?
Do you remember, as a very small child, using pictures and objects to
communicate with? Art psychotherapy uses images and objects
to access the more primitive part of the brain. This often leads
to gaining new insights, meaning and understanding into emotions and behaviours.
It is a way of articulating and unlocking doors to the subconscious.
