S2E11| Art Therapy in the Digital Age: How Technology is Changing Creativity and Healing


Listen Later

What happens when creativity meets technology in the therapy room?

In this episode of Therapy, Tech & Takeout, Jackie and Toni are joined by art therapist Lindsey Jonin to explore how art therapy is evolving in a digital world. From iPads and Canva to virtual sessions and screen sharing, Lindsey shares how technology is expanding access to healing while still keeping human connection at the center.

We also unpack the tension many of us feel with tech - when it isolates vs. when it connects - and how creativity can be a powerful antidote to overconsumption.

Whether you think you’re “not creative” or you’re already an artist, this conversation will change how you think about self-expression, mental health, and the role of technology in both. 

In this episode:

  • What art therapy actually is (and what it’s not)

  • How digital tools like Canva and drawing apps are used in therapy

  • Why virtual art therapy can increase accessibility and connection

  • The mindset shift from consuming to creating

  • Simple ways to reconnect with your creativity (even if you feel stuck)
