Laura Reyes is an artist, educator, and coach who helps build wellness through the creative arts. Laura holds an MS in Art Therapy from Mount Mary University, a BS in apparel design from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is the author of Passing Through, the culmination of her Master of Science research that explores how the art therapy studio experience transforms the lives of homeless and runaway teenagers.

After extensive work with children, families in crisis and organizations, and over a decade of an experience as an art therapist and art educator, Laura realized there is a universal need to give voice to one’s inner experiences through creative expression. From this realization Laura founded her business HeartSplash.

HeartSplash offers a range of workshops, online programs, retreats, and coaching opportunities designed to help expand creative and personal growth by utilizing a unique blend of art and creative writing. Laura loves being a mom and lives with her son in Chicago.
