As a holistic specialist, and also a healthcare professional, I agree that, it is widely understood that the intersection of physical and mental health is complicated.

Managing chronic physical symptoms for months — even years — leaves patients vulnerable to developing depression, anxiety, and other emotional and mental health issues that exacerbate physical symptoms of health complications.

In addition, in the review carried out by AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PUBLIC HEALTH showed that art therapy has increasing benefits for patients managing conditions for long periods of time, including post-traumatic stress disorder, chronic pain, cancer and other chronic illnesses:

• Promotes stress relief and emotional resilience

• Supports cognitive and motor functions

• Reduces feelings of anxiety, pain or depression

• Encourages creative self-expression through non-verbal communication

• Inspires human connection and self-discovery

• Enhances independence and confidence in one’s own abilities
