At Art Of Our Soul, we believe that art has the ability to enhance one’s mood, emotions, and other psychological states. Addicts and alcoholics often suffer from anxiety, stress, depression, and isolation. Art has the potential to contribute toward reducing stress and depression as well as serve as a vehicle for alleviating the burden of this challenging disease.
Art helps people process and express experiences that are too difficult to put into words. Art can be a refuge from the intense emotions associated with illness. We strongly believe the imagination knows no limits in finding creative ways to express grief and trauma. In particular, molding clay can be a powerful way to help people express feelings as there is tactile involvement at a somatic level. This method also helps to begin communication and cathartic release while revealing unconscious materials and symbols which cannot be expressed through words.

What is Art *In Therapy?
There’s a big difference between clinical art therapy and art used as therapy. Art *IN therapy centers around the creative process as a healing tool. The advantages of using art *IN therapy:
1) Help patients express feelings/emotions in a safe environment.
2) Help gain insight into what the patient is feeling through artistic representation: color choice, composition, etc.
3) Make recovering addicts feel confident, valued, and empowered by exploring their creative side by reconnecting with their inner-child.
We believe art used In therapy helps recovering addicts express their emotions, improve self-esteem, manage addictions, relieve stress, improve symptoms of anxiety and depression, and cope with recovery. Art allows a person to convey ideas and emotions while exploring issues in a way that allows a person to communicate in a non-verbal way. Many recovering addicts initially feel hesitant about exploring and addressing those issues in group therapy (12 Step Meetings), this is a healthy alternative.

Brandon Lee is a recovered meth & heroin addict since 2010. When he first got sober, Brandon’s sponsor told him to go to the art store to pick up supplies and start creating. That’s exactly what Brandon did to keep his mind busy during the “alone” times. Brandon says creating art saved his life and it continues to be his main source of ongoing therapy in recovery. Brandon has also received recognition in the art world for his abstract style painting. He was just nominated in 2021 for the Phoenix Art Museum’s “Emerging Artist Award”. Brandon’s podcast, “Escaping Rock Bottom”, focuses on mental health. The podcast goes in-depth on all things addiction by talking with addicts in recovery about their experience, strength, and hope. His podcast is currently being used as a daily workshop at more than two dozen treatment centers across the country. Brandon is also a motivational/keynote speaker at mental health summits – most recently the keynote speaker for the Alcohol & Drug Abuse Certification Board of Georgia’s annual conference with medical professionals. Additionally, Brandon is a best-selling author. His memoir, “Mascara Boy”, about child sex abuse and trauma remains in the Top 5 Best Sellers on Amazon in the category of Substance Abuse.
