Call for Artists

Mirrors of the Mind 13: The Psychotherapist as Artist

FLOURISHING AND FLOW

A VIRTUAL ART EXHIBITION FOR MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS & STUDENTS

This is the 13th year that Mirrors of The Mind has been organized by LACPA. Now, in its virtual form, it serves as a space for psychotherapists to demonstrate the power of art in our community and our unique position as mental health professionals to communicate important truths. 

Throughout history, the arts have had a unique and powerful role in social change by bringing attention to human suffering and instilling hope. We believe in the liberating power of the arts to promote empathy, catalyze social healing, and promote greater interconnectedness.
