Lena Bouma is an artist, specializing in graphic design. The Trauma and Mental Health Report reached out to hear about Lena’s process of expressing feelings and managing mental health:

“I used to draw through anxiety a lot to be honest.  It really helped me to draw lots of feelings about being queer and stuff. My experience with art and mental health involves just having journals with my feelings at times, and even drawing out my demons and scary voices.”
