Adi Benarroch Creative Arts Therapy

I am a qualified creative arts therapist registered with PACFA, passionate about finding creative ways of expression, embodiment, and harnessing the power of metaphors to navigate complex personal material.

As an arts psychotherapist, I adopt a humanistic, strength-based, and phenomenological approach, working collaboratively with clients to explore a “more-than-verbal” approach to therapy. I assist in bringing awareness to the sensory and affective information that emerges during the creative process. My work integrates an intermodal approach to the therapeutic encounter, navigating between talk therapy, visual art-making, dance/movement, somatic inquiry, creative writing, drama, and play. I strive to help others connect their inner experiences to expressiveness, facilitating their journey toward self-discovery through play and creativity.

Fluent in Spanish and drawing from my own experiences as a migrant, I embrace cultural diversity and welcome individuals of all ages and stages of life, including those under the neurodiverse umbrella and seeking LGBTQIA + support.

No prior experience in art-making is necessary, as my work is process-based.

Areas of experience include:
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Stress and burnout
• Emotional awareness
• Trauma
• Neurodivergent wellbeing
• Interpersonal skills
• Life transitions
• Community development
• Arts for health and well-being
