Jas Milam is a highly experienced art therapist with over 30 years of personal recovery and a deep commitment to helping clients find healing through creativity. An accomplished artist, Jas combines her extensive background in 12 Step models, Jungian psychology, and family systems with a passion for art-making. She emphasizes that art therapy does not require any prior art training or innate talent; rather, it serves as a unique method to assist individuals—particularly those who may feel that traditional talk therapy is insufficient. This approach can be particularly beneficial for children and those seeking a different path to personal growth. The healing and enlightening process of art-making allows clients to explore and articulate emotions, diagnose dysfunction, and revise patterns that no longer serve their well-being. By engaging in art therapy, clients not only feel an increase in vitality and energy but also connect to their spiritual selves and inner wisdom. Jas has extensive training in world religions and multi-cultural applications of art and symbolism, which informs her practice and enhances the transformative power of the creative process.
