Professional experience5. Title: Healing Through the Arts - Creative Wellness Institute
Description: At Creative Wellness Institute, we believe in the transformative power of the arts when it comes to healing and personal growth. Through our innovative approach to counseling and community programs, we aim to provide individuals with a safe and supportive environment to explore their emotions and find healing through artistic expression.
With our base in Birmingham, Alabama, Creative Wellness Institute has been serving the community for several years. Our team of highly skilled and compassionate counselors are dedicated to assisting individuals at critical points in their lives, helping them navigate through challenges and find hope and resilience.
One of our flagship programs is Fine Arts Find Life (FAFL), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that aims to enhance the mental wellness of children through artistic exploration. Through FAFL, we offer a range of creative activities and workshops that encourage children to express themselves, build self-esteem, and develop lifelong coping skills.
Under the leadership of Eve Laxer, LICSW, the Director of Creative Wellness Institute, we are committed to creating an emotionally safe environment where individuals can explore their thoughts and emotions freely. With her experience as a therapist and artist, Eve brings a unique perspective to our programs, integrating the healing power of the arts into evidence-based therapeutic techniques.
Our counseling services cater to individuals of all ages, offering support for a variety of mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. We believe in a holistic approach to therapy, addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes to facilitate lasting change and personal growth.
Creative Wellness Institute also offers community workshops and support groups, providing individuals with valuable tools and resources to improve their mental well-being. By fostering a sense of connection and belonging, these programs enable participants to find support, share experiences, and learn from one another.
At Creative Wellness Institute, we firmly believe that everyone deserves access to high-quality mental health care and the opportunity to harness the healing power of the arts. We strive to make our services inclusive and accessible to all members of the Birmingham community, regardless of their background or financial situation.
