The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore how professional therapists in the southwest United States describe the influence of creative arts therapy on depression and anxiety. Primary data was collected by interviewing 12 therapists, and thematic analysis was used to identify patterns within the data to answer two research questions, "how do professional therapists describe the influence of creative arts therapy on depression," and "how do professional therapists describe the influence of creative arts therapy on anxiety." The cognitive-behavioral art therapy (CBAT) was selected as the theoretical foundation as it is focused on identifying negative thoughts and awareness of its consequences. Based on the thematic analysis, it is concluded that creative arts therapy can positively influence depression and anxiety. Based on the six themes, creative self-expression has healing effect on depression, artful calm is a viable solution for anxiety, art therapy universally benefits diverse populations regardless of age, gender, or cultural background. Building trust through therapeutic alliance and individualization based on clients' readiness and progress could also help overcome depression and anxiety. By gaining a deeper understanding of how art therapy complements traditional therapeutic approaches, this study established that arts-based therapy offers a more personalized approach to mental healthcare to help overcome symptoms of depression and anxiety. This study is informative about the benefits of creative arts therapy for more effective healing outcomes.
