The creative process

I have found that developing the creative process is an important part of bringing about wholeness. Being creative uses the brain in a different way than normal cognitive linear thinking and is helpful in several ways. It can be used to bypass the fixed thinking that causes the constant negative perspective that many with mental health challenges face and finding wholeness. I use it commonly in practice to identify the path one is on towards reaching goals. I often have clients create a tree of life, with various useful therapeutic processes being elicited by the task.
