Introduction to Mindfulness in Therapy

As a therapist, I've seen firsthand the transformative impact that mindfulness can have on individuals and groups. By incorporating mindfulness practices into our expressive therapies sessions, we can help clients cultivate greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and overall well-being.

In this blog post, we'll explore the concept of mindfulness in therapy and how it can be used to enhance our work with clients.

Research has consistently shown that mindfulness practices can have a positive impact on mental health outcomes, including reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression.

By incorporating mindfulness into our therapy sessions, we can help clients develop greater self-compassion, improve their emotional regulation skills, and increase their overall sense of well-being.
