About Megan Veurink, LPC, ATR

Philosophy of Care

Megan is a graduate of Adler University with a master's in both counseling and art therapy. She has the skills and foundation of a counselor while bringing a unique and creative lens through art therapy. Art therapy is a language that uses both spoken and unspoken words to allow an individual to make meaning of their experiences and story. As an art therapist, Megan has the opportunity to enrich the lives of clients by encouraging a unique intersection of cognitive and behavioral processes. These processes allow the content of feelings and thoughts to be fully realized, witnessed and experienced. We are all born with creative capabilities. Art therapy taps into our creative processes and helps facilitate communication of underlying thoughts, feelings, memories, and emotions that are not easily verbalized. Art therapy also enables fragmented parts of ourselves to be brought together and viewed as a whole. Art is not merely meant to be hung on walls. Art is reflective, therapeutic, hopeful, and meaningful.
