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 turns neuroeducation into usable, customizable interventions. It helps therapists speak a shared neuro-informed language with clients, deepens understanding of internal processes, and supports trauma-informed, brain-based care.
How does BrainPalette™ work?
Users answer a series of guided clinical questions, and BrainPalette™ dynamically generates tailored, evidence-aligned intervention ideas. Each recommendation connects neuroscience principles—like embodiment, sensory integration, and symbolic expression—to core art therapy techniques, helping therapists design sessions that are both creative and brain-based.
Is BrainPalette™ trauma-informed?
Yes. Every component of BrainPalette™ is designed through a trauma-informed and intersectional lens, ensuring that interventions respect clients’ autonomy, safety, and cultural identity while grounding practice in the latest brain-based research.
Do I need to be an art therapist to use BrainPalette™?
BrainPalette™ is designed so users can apply their own worldview and professional training to create neuroscience-informed interventions. Built for art therapists, counselors, psychologists, educators, and students, it allows each user to interpret and apply the content through the lens of their specialized expertise. It’s also a valuable resource for program directors and supervisors seeking consistent, evidence-informed tools for training and practice.
