Kelly Reedy

Through my personal experiences, I have seen how the expressive power of artmaking can reveal one's deepest emotions, thoughts, and fears, while opening up new pathways to mental wellbeing. As a practising artist and art therapist, my goal is to facilitate a bridge for my clients to safely move between the realms of creativity and therapeutic imagination, fostering healing, self-discovery, and connection. I have a special interest in Asian ritual artmaking traditions, which has inspired me to develop innovative approaches honing the concept of mindful creativity. I work with diverse clinical populations, as well as lecture part-time at LASALLE College of the Arts Singapore in the MA Art Therapy program, where my published research explores cultivating self-compassion through found materials, museum-based art therapy, and the intersection of memory and creative expression.
