Angela Zhang (Art Therapy Intern)

Angela is a practicum student currently completing her Masters of Art Therapy Diploma at Toronto Art Therapy Institute (TATI). Angela completed a Bachelor's degree with Honours in Arts and Psychology from the University of Toronto in 2010. She is currently an Art Therapy Student and a Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). She is a Student Member of Canadian Art Therapy Association (CATA) and the Ontario Art Therapy Assocation(OATA). She has a background in working with children, youth, mothers, and families in church and mental health organizations.

Angela is passionate about integrating the healing power of art with a Christian worldview. Her training at TATI has equipped her with a deep understanding of both the therapeutic potential with the combination of creative expression. She believes that art provides a unique opportunity for clients to express their innermost emotions, challenges, and aspirations in ways that words often cannot.
Angela offers a client-centered approach, where artistic expression serves as a powerful tool for emotional healing, self-discovery, and spiritual growth. Through painting, sculpture, drawing, collage, and other artistic mediums, she encourages clients to engage with their emotions and explore their inner world in a safe space. The process of art-making, paired with guided directives, helps clients navigate their journey of healing and personal growth.
Angela is particularly interested in Narrative-Based Theory and Attachment-Based Theory, with a focus on Child and Adolescent Development, Grief and Loss, and Trauma-Informed Art Therapy. She believes that transformation happens through the process of healing, and healing happens when we are willing to walk beyond our scars to embrace new beginnings.​
