Kapiti Neuro Therapy Corinne Allan

Kapiti Neuro Therapy Corinne Allan I am a skilled Art Therapist, I draw upon mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy. Colours tell a story and colours can help individuals to balance heal themselves.

Qualified Therapist working with learning and behavioural difficulties, complex disorders, autism spectrum disorder, social/separation anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injury, stroke, and general trauma recovery. I use natural earth colours and encourage clients to mix their own personal colours. I use different techniques to support self expression of emotions in a non ver

bal gentle way. Every person will unconsciously mix or choose colours to their personal preference. Through using simple painting techniques you will notice over a period of 6-8 weeks a significant change with the use of colour that will heal trauma, shocks, unhappiness etc. As this is a non verbal technique it is ideal for everyone to connect with their emotions in a safe way. As aspergers, dyspraxia, dyslexia, dyscaculia, ADD, autism, anxiety are an imbalance of the left brain and Art therapy will stimulate the right side of the brain which over time balance symptoms out.

💭 How are you really feeling?

When emotions feel big or hard to name, a gentle check-in can help bring clarity and calm.

Swipe through this step-by-step Feelings Check-In to explore what your body and brain are trying to tell you. You don’t need the “right” words, just curiosity and compassion. 💛

🌈 What colour is the feeling?
🔍 How big is it?
📍 Where do you feel it in your body?
👋 What texture or sensation comes with it?
🗣 If it could speak, what would it say?

This is a powerful practice for kids, teens, and adults alike, especially those who process emotions differently or find it tricky to express how they feel.

✨ There’s no wrong answer. Just space to be you.

🖐️✨ Sensory Art Therapy at Kapiti Neurotherapy: where creativity meets neuroscience.

Sensory art therapy is more than just fun with paint or texture, it’s a therapeutic approach grounded in psychology and brain science. By engaging the five senses (sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste), this therapy helps individuals, especially those with autism or sensory processing challenges, strengthen their sense of self in a safe, supportive environment.

Through sensory play and creative exploration, clients can experience:

🧠 Improved attention and cognitive function
💬 Enhanced emotional awareness and communication
🎨 Greater self-expression and creative thinking
🖍️ Support for fine motor skills and sensory integration

Sensory art therapy can be especially powerful for children and neurodivergent individuals, offering a playful, hands-on way to connect, cope, and grow.

When Words Aren’t Enough, Art Can Speak 🎨🧠

Many children and teens find it hard to move on from hurtful comments or rejection. These emotional wounds often lead to low self-esteem, negative self-talk, poor sleep, and emotional outbursts.

Neurographic Art is a simple yet powerful technique that helps kids release emotional pain and reconnect with themselves. Through lines, shapes, and colours they choose, children can gently "download" big emotions onto paper and begin to shift their inner dialogue.

As an Art Therapist, I’ve seen firsthand how this creative process brings calm, clarity, and emotional healing. Neurographic Art isn’t just drawing, it’s a way for young people to feel seen, heard, and empowered.

Let’s help them turn inner chaos into colourful calm. 💛
