Creativity has the power to heal, but for many artists, writers, musicians, and creatives, emotional blocks such as self-doubt, trauma, and anxiety can stifle that flow. Healing Through the Creative Self offers a transformative approach to unlocking your creative potential through the therapeutic model of Internal Family Systems (IFS). This workbook is designed specifically for individuals in creative fields who are struggling with inner obstacles—whether it's perfectionism, procrastination, or fear of failure—and provides a practical guide to healing emotional wounds through creative expression. In this interactive workbook, you will learn how to identify and engage with the internal parts of yourself that influence your creative process. Whether you're grappling with an Inner Critic that prevents you from finishing projects or a perfectionist part that never lets you share your work, IFS techniques help you heal these parts and restore your creative freedom. Featuring daily exercises, journaling prompts, and creative activities tailored for artists and writers, this book invites you to explore how emotional healing and creativity can work hand in hand. Inside this book, you will find: An introduction to the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, explaining how internal parts—like Protectors and Exiles—can block creativity and how to work with them compassionately. Personal stories and case studies from artists, writers, and musicians who have successfully used IFS to overcome creative blocks and reclaim their authentic creative voice. Interactive exercises such as journaling prompts, visualizations, and artistic challenges to help you navigate emotional challenges and bring new energy to your creative practice. Guidance on cultivating emotional safety, releasing perfectionism, and embracing vulnerability in your work. Whether you're a painter struggling with self-doubt, a writer battling procrastination, or a musician feeling creatively stuck, Healing Through the Creative Self will empower you to rediscover your artistic flow and use your creativity as a powerful tool for emotional healing.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This on-point guide to growing up by Instagram sensation Mari Andrew features “achingly vulnerable and completely relatable watercolor illustrations about relationships, heartbreak and the struggles of urban life” (The Washington Post). In the journey toward adulthood, it is easy to find yourself treading the path of those who came before you; the path often appears straight and narrow, with a few bumps in the road and a little scenery to keep you inspired. But what if you don’t want to walk a worn path? What if you want to wander? What if there is no map to guide you through the detours life throws your way? From creating a home in a new city to understanding the link between a good hair dryer and good self-esteem to dealing with the depths of heartache and loss, these tales of the twentysomething document a road less traveled—a road that sometimes is just the way you’re meant to go. Praise for Am I There Yet? “Equal parts memoir and illustrated guidebook, it chronicles Andrew’s journey through adulthood as she navigates love and heartbreak, professional indecision and success, and personal struggles.”—Refinery29 “Using her artistic skills to illustrate thought-provoking essays, Andrew inspires readers to take the path less traveled in life.”—CNN “The illustrations . . . are often packed with truths about dating, self-care, careers, and all the secret thoughts you never say out loud.”—Elle “This uplifting book is filled with essays and illustrations that will fill you with so much hope as you move forward with any big life change.”—Bustle “Her illustrations will resonate with anyone who has ever had a crush, went on a date, or felt the sting of heartbreak.”—The Independent

Self-Healing Through Visual and Verbal Art Therapy explores the therapeutic properties of visual and verbal creativity and its capacity to act as a natural means of self-healing. Drawing on Freud's and Winnicott's work on psychoanalysis and play, R.M. Simon illustrates the healing power of art-making with the drawings and stories of seven-year-old Joe, who succeeds in overcoming the trauma of family break-up by expressing his emotional turmoil outside the formal therapeutic process. The progress from symbolising unconscious distress to verbalising and becoming conscious of (and able to deal with) such distress is clearly demonstrated in the author's discussion of Joe's drawings and stories. This book offers a clear and concise examination of the theory and application of art as therapy and will be useful for art therapists, psychotherapists and students in these fields wanting to develop an understanding of self-healing methods.
