About this listen
In this episode, I sit down with a Chicago-based art therapist Elizabeth Yoo-lae Cho to explore why creative expression can unlock what words sometimes can't. She explains how she uses clients' artwork to track therapeutic progress over time in ways traditional talk therapy can't capture. We also dive into her experience as a Korean American woman whose training environment was white-dominated—navigating boundary challenges with middle-aged white men while learning to find her voice. Now working primarily with Asian American clients, she shares how she's learned to bring her full, authentic self into the room. This conversation offers both practical tools and real inspiration for new therapists.
