Art Psychotherapist
MA Art Therapy, Class of 2013

Mira finds profound joy in helping people enhance a sense of self, build emotional resilience and psychological vitality, and establish healthy social relationships. Through the creative modality of visual arts, she helps individuals who experience emotional and psychological distress, addictions, eating disorders, grief and loss, family conflicts, transitions in life, and mental health issues.

Mira is an avid abstract art painter and was previously trained as a linguist with a Masters in Applied Linguistics from the National University of Singapore, which she followed up with a Masters in Special Education from California State University, Los Angeles.

Her academic and career paths opened up avenues to work with people from all walks of life, especially with those who are marginalised in society due to their emotional or psychological needs.
