Hi Rianne,
Art Therapy would be great for you! Look into it. It's helping people heal and get through their feelings through the expression of arts. http://www.arttherapyblog.com/what-is-art-therapy/
I almost got into the field myself when I was studying Psychology in college.
Good luck, Vivian

Hi Rianne,
The neurosciences are a vast field of study and knowledge. And within this science we have today what is termed as neuroart, which is related to the forms of communication and artistic expression (such as music, dance, literature, film, visual arts) taking into account the functioning of the brain (nervous system) and how this organ responds to different learning styles through education and the development of the arts.
Below is a link that develops projects and activities in neuroarts. I hope that can help you.
Best wishes!
