BrainPalette™ Frequently Asked Questions
What problems does BrainPalette™ solve?
Neuroscience is often difficult to translate into practical, arts-based strategies. BrainPalette™ closes this gap by offering a guided, interactive workflow that integrates neuroscience evidence and principles into usable, customizable art therapy interventions. It helps therapists speak a shared language with clients and stakeholders, deepens understanding of internal processes, and supports trauma-informed, brain-based care.
How does BrainPalette™ work?
Users begin by answering a series of guided clinical questions, and BrainPalette™ dynamically generates tailored, evidence-aligned intervention ideas. Each recommendation links neuroscience principles to core art therapy techniques, helping therapists design sessions that are both creative and brain-based.
In addition to the intervention workflow, BrainPalette™ offers curricular tools, self-paced learning modules, and adaptable teaching materials that translate complex concepts into accessible lessons for students, supervisees, and interdisciplinary teams. Together, these features support ongoing learning, skill development, and confident integration of neuroscience within everyday practice.
Is BrainPalette™ evidence-based?
Yes. BrainPalette™ is grounded in current neuroscience, psychology, and art therapy research, and was developed through a systematic program of empirical, mixed-methods study. The platform aligns with established mechanisms of change in the creative arts therapies, such as sensory engagement, symbolic expression, and emotional regulation, while maintaining a strong focus on ethics, therapist judgment, and cultural context.
Can I use BrainPalette™ for training or supervision?
Absolutely. BrainPalette™ includes downloadable resources, educational modules, and clinical templates that can be integrated into educational curriculum, supervision sessions, and professional development. It supports consistent language and evidence-informed practice across training environments.
