The Story
Behavior Analyst and Fine Artist, Natasha Bouchillon set out on a quest to fuse the transformative effects of art creation with the socially-significant grwth that she has witnessed impact so many lives that she has worked with. Her studies on ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) and RFT (Relational Frame Theory) were a huge component of the incredible improvement she saw occur in her client’s lives.
Every conversation or encounter that Natasha experienced led her to discover that Art and Behavior Analysis could be bridged to utilize these methodologies and theories to implement Art therapy in a fun, explorational experience for all.
Natasha is on a mission to equip and empower others with the love of art and comprehensive behavior analytic techniques to refocus and develop values-oriented individuals who are able to obtain their goals and dreams.
