artist psychologist Therapist author
Lucia Capacchione was born in the United States.
Lucia Capacchione began her career as a child development supervisor for the Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles in 1960s, and her responsibilities included establishing a dozen Head Start programs. She became certified through Dr. Thomas Gordon's Parent Effectiveness Training and Teacher Effectiveness Training and then taught teachers, parents, and school administrators. She became an art therapist in 1975 after experiencing the healing effects of writing and drawing with her nondominant hand on her own ill health, which led to a full recovery without medication. Currently, she lives near Big Sur, California.
Capacchione's first book “The Creative Journal for Children: A Guide for Parents, Teachers, and Counselors” was published in 1989. Many of her books focus on the healing powers of art therapy and journaling. With Sandra Bardsley, Capacchione wrote “Creating a Joyful Birth Experience” in 1994, a volume for expectant mothers that offers exercises to reinforce positive affirmations, right-brain exercises, and visualization. In Capacchione's “Visioning: Ten Steps to Designing the Life of Your Dreams” that was written in 2000, she bases her advice on her observations of architects, designers, and engineers, including the creators of toys and theme parks. She writes that their methods to create ideas can also be used to improve one's health, home, and life.
Dr. Capacchione methods are being used worldwide in education, therapy and life coaching. Her texts and workbooks are used in courses on art therapy, psychology, creative writing, and art. Her techniques are used in cancer support groups, schools (K-12), memory care centers, and programs for veterans. Dr. Capacchione’s books have been translated into 20 languages.
