Integrative Creative Therapy
Creative Arts and Music Therapy for Anxiety and Depression in Austin, TX, Providing Online Services Across Texas, and New York
We understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate anxiety or depression. At Integrative Creative Therapy in Austin, TX, we provide a supportive space to explore these challenges using trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming Creative Arts and Music Therapy. We also offer online services throughout Texas and New York so you can access our care wherever you are.
Our goal is to help you reconnect with your natural strengths and abilities. By tapping into creative modalities—such as music, art, and movement—we uncover new paths to healing that may feel more liberating than traditional talk therapy. Whether you’re in Austin or beyond, we’re committed to helping you unburden past pain, find new ways to manage stress, and move toward a more authentic life.
Our Trauma-Informed, Neurodivergent-Affirming Approach
We believe genuine healing happens when you feel seen, heard, and accepted. Our team is committed to providing therapy that respects the unique experiences of each individual. This means we tailor our sessions to meet your specific needs, particularly if you identify as neurodivergent or have experienced trauma in the past.
We work from a place of deep empathy, recognizing how anxiety and depression often stem from unresolved pain or unmet needs. Our approach integrates evidence-based techniques such as IFS, and somatic practices with Creative Arts Therapy. We engage the mind and body together, creating a path forward that goes beyond surface-level coping strategies.
How Music Therapy and Creative Arts Therapy Support Anxiety and Depression
Our creative therapies engage parts of the brain that traditional talk therapy may not fully access. This can be especially beneficial if you’re living with anxiety or depression and find it difficult to express your emotions with words alone. Through music and art, we can explore your inner world in new ways.
Consider some of the potential benefits of our approach:
Nonverbal Expression
Creative Arts Therapy offers an outlet for feelings that are hard to articulate.
Somatic Awareness
Activities like drumming, painting, or mindful movement encourage body-based healing.
Emotional Release
Music therapy can help you identify and process deep emotions, leading to improved mood and relief from overwhelming thoughts.
By blending these creative tools with a trauma-informed lens, we offer therapy for anxiety and depression that supports lasting change and self-discovery.
Music Therapy Groups for Teens with Anxiety
Teens experiencing anxiety often need a community where they can feel understood. We offer a Music Therapy Group for Anxious Teens, designed to foster healthy coping skills in a supportive environment. This group is ideal for those who struggle with social stress, panic attacks, or racing thoughts.
We also facilitate an Emotional Regulation through Music Group for teens, focusing on effective ways to manage overwhelming emotions. Both groups combine music-based activities with open discussions and gentle guidance. Whether you’re looking for a group for teens with anxiety or seeking new ways to boost emotional resilience, these sessions provide a creative outlet and a safe space to grow.
About Integrative Creative Therapy
At Integrative Creative Therapy, we go beyond traditional approaches by engaging you cognitively, somatically, emotionally, and creatively. Our role isn’t to fix you. We help you unburden past pain, expand your emotional capacity, and connect to your healthy core (the Self-Energy). This often involves exploring art, music, and movement to reach parts of the self that words alone can’t touch.
Our practice is grounded in more than 20 years of combined experience and training in trauma and neurodivergence-informed care. We use evidence-based methods like EMDR (only in New York), IFS, somatic work, and Creative Arts Therapy to help clients of all ages. Healing occurs when you feel safe, seen, and accepted. We’re honored to create a space where that healing can unfold.
