Montare Media presents Season 2, episode 13 of the Discover U Podcast with JD Kalmenson: Art Therapy- How Creativity Can Heal, with Sarah Gallop, LMFT, ATR

JD Kalmenson interviews Sarah Gallop, LMFT, ATR, a psychotherapist and registered art therapist, and owner of Creative Space Art Therapy, with practices in Los Angeles and Denver. Learn about how the act of creating art with color, line and shape can reveal hidden, unhealed aspects of unconscious material. Once brought to consciousness, these dynamics can be seen, understood, and worked with therapeutically.

Sarah received her MA in Marital and Family Therapy with an emphasis in Art Therapy from Loyola Marymount University. She uses a strength-based approach to work with both children and adults, addressing barriers and encouraging growth. Before starting her private practice, she was Clinical Director of La Ventana’s Adolescent Intensive Outpatient and Partial Hospitalization program in Santa Monica, CA.   Prior to that she worked as a clinical art psychotherapist at Destinations for Teens, where she often used art making as a tool to provide adolescent clients with an alternative form of communication, to help them bypass defenses, and to provide a tangible record of change.  

Sarah has also worked with adults struggling with a range of mental illness, trauma, and addiction, both at Didi Hirsch and The People Concern in Los Angeles, often using art to help them grow, thrive, and live their best lives.

She specializes in anxiety, depression and relationship issues, and offers clients tools to help clients not only feel better but also discover their authentic selves.   She works within various theoretical orientations including psychodynamic theory, cognitive behavioral therapy, and narrative theory. She truly believes in the power of art to uncover truths and to help clients make the changes they’d like to see in their lives.  
 
Host Kalmenson is the CEO/Founder of Renewal Health Group, a family of addiction treatment centers, and Montare Behavioral Health, a comprehensive brand of mental health treatment facilities in Southern California. Kalmenson is a Yale Chabad Scholar, a skilled facilitator, teacher, counselor, and speaker, who has provided chaplain services to prisons, local groups and remote villages throughout the world. His diverse experience as a rabbi, chaplain, and CEO has inspired his passion and deep understanding of the necessity for effective mental health treatment and long-term sobriety.

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 2 of 𝙇𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 '𝙀𝙢 𝙐𝙥.

Thanks to you, our loyal listeners -- we now have a footprint in more than 65 countries! 

We take a deep dive on:  The Criminal Justice System, Crime Scene Investigation and Leadership. Our mission is to enlighten, educate and empower others with the truth.
Like it or not, the truth disturbs, the truth divides … but ultimately, the truth delivers. 

October will be here before you know it.  It is designated Domestic Violence Awareness month -- we are doing our part to get the word out ahead of time. 

Today we have the distinct honor and privilege to sit and talk with MJ Vess -- a friend of mine – and an anti-domestic violence abuse advocate. 

Her experience resonated deeply with me and I’m confident that her personal testimony that she’ll share with you will be impactful and helpful as well.  She is the founder of VictoryLife House – a support center that connects survivors of domestic abuse to the professionals that they need at a reduced rate.  MJ is one survivor among countless millions with a story that is similar but not exactly the same.   She is a survivor from of a marriage that was highly abusive. 

A marriage that was plagued with deep seated mental, emotional and spiritual abuse – just to mention a few areas.  MJ said it has taken her four years to get to the point to where she can now share openly from her heart without any fear of what others may say or think. 

Today our outreach effort is geared towards re-educating the public on the fact that: 

Domestic violence is a pattern of: coercive, controlling behavior that can include: physical, emotional psychological, sexual, or financial abuse.  Explained further -- using money and financial tools to exert and exact control.  Some abusers are able to exert complete control over a victim’s every action without ever using violence or only by using subtle threats of violence. 

Domestic violence is more than just physical violence.  It can include sexual, psychological, and emotional abuse.  Domestic violence intimidates, assaults, and often is an attempt at controlling a partner.  All types of abuse are devastating to victims.  

Domestic violence is a pervasive, life-threatening crime that affects millions of individuals across the United States and worldwide regardless of age, economic status, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, ability, or education level.

Sure, high-profile cases of domestic violence will attract headlines, but thousands of people experience domestic abuse every day.  They come from all walks of life -- and it is through no fault of their own that they suffer.  Abusive partners make it very difficult for victims to escape relationships. 

Sadly, many survivors suffer from abuse for decades and even more tragically, many are killed at the hands of their abusers. 

● Domestic violence is first and foremost a pattern of power and control. 
● Nearly 3 out of 4 Americans personally know someone who is or has been a victim of domestic violence or IPV (Interpersonal Violence). 
● 1 in 3 women will be a victim of domestic or sexual violence at some point in her lifetime, and each day an average of three women die at the hands of someone who claimed to love them. 

We hope this episode will help to perhaps save at least one life.  Everyone has a voice and every voice has the power to give hope.  The motto of VictoryLife House reads, “Life without abuse is an option. Choose life!” 

MJ was a victim, and now is a survivor and woman of valor.  Follow her lead! 

Thanks so much for tuning in! We hope you enjoy this episode!
