Welcome to the vibrant world of Shalandrea Renee Houchen, an LA-born, NYC-raised performative artist whose unique approach to art therapy is revolutionizing wellness practices. Blending her background in stage and film performance with her passion for healing through creativity, Shalandrea offers a truly immersive and transformative experience.
Her innovative methods incorporate visual arts, movement, music, and theatre to create a holistic approach to emotional exploration and personal growth. By harnessing the power of artistic expression, Shalandrea guides her clients on a journey of self-discovery, helping them unlock hidden emotions, foster deep connections with themselves and others, and build a sense of empowerment through creativity.
The benefits of expressive arts therapy are profound and far-reaching. These workshops provide individuals with tools to:
Explore and Express Emotions: Artistic mediums create a safe and nonjudgmental space for expressing feelings that might be difficult to verbalize, enabling participants to process and release emotional pain.
Reduce Stress and Anxiety: Creative activities like painting, movement, and music stimulate relaxation responses in the brain, helping to lower stress and anxiety levels.
Enhance Self-Awareness: Engaging in expressive arts allows individuals to connect deeply with their inner selves, uncovering thoughts, feelings, and patterns that lead to greater self-understanding.
Build Confidence and Resilience: Creating something unique fosters a sense of accomplishment and boosts self-esteem, empowering participants to tackle challenges in other areas of life.
Improve Communication and Relationships: Through group workshops, participants learn to share their stories, empathize with others, and build meaningful connections that strengthen their social and emotional bonds.
Encourage Mindfulness and Presence: The act of creating art draws individuals into the present moment, offering a meditative practice that enhances focus and awareness.
Shalandrea's workshops are tailored to meet participants where they are, integrating elements of improvisation, storytelling, and collaborative projects. These sessions not only nurture emotional healing but also inspire creativity, encouraging participants to find joy, hope, and purpose in the artistic process.
Whether through painting vivid images, moving freely to music, or embodying stories through theatre, Shalandrea creates a space where transformation happens. Her work goes beyond traditional art therapy by weaving together the vibrant threads of performance, community, and healing, leaving participants with renewed energy and a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them.
In addition to the workshop herbal tea plant based snacks will be in abundance.
I can’t wait to see what we create!
