Child Art Therapist - Ann Lui
Ann cares deeply for children, especially for the marginalized and vulnerable, those living in poverty, affected by trauma, abuse, divorce, crisis, illnesses, and struggling with mental health and social-emotional issues. Motivated by a simple desire to impact one life at a time, Ann has devoted almost 20+ years of her professional career and personal voluntary humanitarian efforts to support children from various countries and diverse cultures to live better lives while she continuously equips herself with relevant competencies, clinical experiences and critical knowledge to attend to their needs.
Ann holds a Master of Arts (Art Therapy) from the LASALLE College of the Arts and a Bachelor of Business Administration (Hons) from NUS. She is also a registered trainer with MOE (Singapore) and a registered art therapist with ANZACATA (The Australian, New Zealand and Asian Creative Arts Therapies Association). In 2022, Ann has completed a 3-year training in Somatic Experiencing®, a body-oriented therapeutic model to heal from trauma and other stress disorders. More recently, she is undergoing an Arts-Based Supervision Skills Training to enhance her skills to supervise art therapists and counsellors.
For 16 years, Ann has been involved in training and coaching children and youths in schools and non-profit organizations in Singapore and Southeast Asia in values-based, lifeskills, leadership and community service programmes. She is uniquely gifted in crafting innovative and creative learning experiences to empower children and youths to make positive life-changing applications to improve themselves and the community.
In art therapy, Ann specializes in working with children (ages 3-12) affected by developmental trauma, grief & loss (death), family violence, parental divorce, those with special needs, and / or having various social-emotional issues. In addition to the use of art, Ann also uses play approaches, MNRI and Somatic Experiencing® techniques in the healing process.
Ann is often described as a people-person, one who has a genuine heart for others and is competent and committed to all that she does. Ann believes that some children feel safe in the comfort and familiarity of a home environment. Home based art therapy can be arranged.
