  ...the safe haven for self-expression. 

Alchemy Open Studio invites you to use art, music and written expression for personal growth and transformation.  This blend of arts and verbal therapy is engaging, enhances communication, provides clarity and speeds healing.  No previous arts experience is necessary and the stigma attached to the therapeutic process is eliminated.  Whether your needs are for brief, solution-focused counseling or more intensive therapeutic treatment, this process is person-centered and strengths-based.  This is truly a safe haven for self expression that inspires hope, help and healing.

Our programs include Individual, Family and Group Therapy, Open Studio Sessions, Workshops, Professional Supervision, and Corporate Trainings.  Please click on PROGRAMS for full descriptions, call Renee Bures at 215-262-4443 or email rbures@alchemyopenstudio.org 

Come into the spacious, light-filled studio located in a scenic wooded setting in Doylestown, PA.  Our community of artists is intergenerational and multicultural, crossing gender, ability, and socio-economic lines.  We stop discrimination by encouraging only one label… artist.  Discover the power of therapeutic arts.  Everyone is welcome!
 

Classical Alchemy refers to the process of changing ordinary metal into gold.  At the Studio, alchemy describes an inner transformation as well as everyday materials finding new life in artworks.  "Creative expression is an exciting healing modality,” claims Renee Bures, MSW, Art Therapist and Executive Director.

Remember Dr. Norman Cousins, the Laughter is the Best Medicine guru and Dr. Patch Adams, the physician clown?  They knew that a lighthearted perspective had healing powers.  “We take the therapeutic arts process very seriously,” says Bures, who serves individuals with special needs, physical or mental health challenges, and those moving through stressful life transitions. “However, while it’s powerful to heal through art expression, it can also be fun!"
