Therapy Paintings

These are watercolor paintings I have done in therapy. This type of work reflects my thoughts and emotions on Dysthymia, Gender Dysphoria, and Suicidal Ideation. These are heavy thoughts and feelings for sure, and creating artwork through these subjects has been extremely healing for me.

I wanted to publish these pieces as an act of suicide prevention. When things felt hopeless, bleak, and worthless I have art to help me get through. I feel grateful to be able to create art because if I couldn’t I wouldn’t know what to do. I am truly appreciative of supportive friends, family members and other individuals who have listened to me or have felt connected to this work.
