Art Greatly was founded on a research insight that many parents are not well informed about how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) can have long term effects on their child. ACEs pose a cyclical risk that can affect multiple generations within one family system.

Art Greatly is passionate about educating families and parents about ACEs as well as introducing family art therapy-based intervention tools that help families prevent, reduce and buffer the effects of ACEs.

Our family resources are designed to be easily understood and pragmatic to use. 

Art Greatly is driven by the research insight that many parents are unaware of how their own childhood adversity can affect the way they parent their children.

All parents have passed on learnings from their own childhood, good or bad, to their own children. Parents who succumbed to or experienced difficult adversities as children risk passing on their own childhood adversities to their own offsprings. 

At Art Greatly, our interests extend beyond behavior and psychology of families, we are interested in how the human minds learn and what motivates us to make dire improvements to our lives.

For parents and children to learn, In the book, "How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition (2000)" we learned that "Transfer is affected by the degree to which people learn with understanding rather than merely memorize sets of facts or follow a fixed set of procedures; see Boxes 3.3 and 3.4."
