About me

I am Cindy Tan, a creative arts therapist specializing in Dance Movement Therapy with a strong foundation in psychology and education. My approach integrates a deep understanding of student wellbeing, arts education, and holistic development. With diverse professional experiences, from working with children with autism to supporting residents with dementia, I aim to foster growth, communication, and healing through creative expression. As a registered member of leading therapy associations, I am committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to individual needs.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Art therapyRecommended for those who feel more comfortable expressing emotions through creativity and want to explore their feelings through art rather than talking.
Holistic approachRecommended for those who want to address their mental health through a balanced focus on mind, body, and spirit.
Person-centered approachRecommended for those looking for a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can lead the conversation and explore their feelings at their own pace.
My approach combines person-centered and holistic methods, emphasizing the unique journey of each individual. I view art as a powerful medium to access emotions, promote self-awareness, and facilitate healing. By integrating Dance Movement Therapy and creative arts, I focus on nurturing the mind-body connection, fostering emotional expression, and enhancing social communication skills. This approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and a belief in the transformative potential of creativity to inspire personal growth and resilience.
