With mental health being on the forefront of many health related issues of our worldwide pandemic, Britoni is inspired to share her unique story with hopes to encourage others faced with their own personal challenges to turn towards creativity.

At the age of 16, Britoni Burdett, a self-taught artist and certified Art Therapy Coach, was in a near death car accident when she brushed the right frontal lobe of her brain resulting in a Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).

Throughout her recovery over the past 21 years, Britoni has turned towards creativity to help support many of the longterm and lifelong cognitive functions and behavioral side effects such as attention, emotional regulation, depression, aggression.

"To be honest, I did not know Art Therapy was even a thing until several years ago. As I began to research, I uncovered Art Therapy is used to help many patients (of all ages) and veterans who are battling with PTSD, TBI, depression, mental illness, sexual assault, just to name a few."

"When we resist the creative process, we block ourselves from healing inner wounds and experiencing Post-Traumatic Growth that is waiting for each of us on the other side of our pain."
