Combine biblio and art therapy
Use these prompts but instead of it being directly about you, or your "client," make it about a character in a story that reflects something currently of import in the life cycle.
Processing emotions seems to get easier with distance and adding fictional elements is a good way to gain perspective.

Art Journal Workshop by Traci Bunkers
With DVD. How fun. Traci shows how fun art can be if you just Go For It. She's obviously not overthinking. It's clearly about the process. What is she thinking while she's playing with color, balance and form. It's not about a "marketable" finished product. It's about the experience. I love the new book arts movement. Books as a personal art form have entered the mainstream.
Bunkers' visual journaling is an excellent call to arms for silencing the inner critic so we can hear the soft whisper of our own creativity so often drowned out by commercial media.
Let the play begin. Even grownups need to color, cut & paste. I've been doing altered books and collage for about 12 years and am only recently beginning to understand the therapeutic benefits of art as a way to self awareness.
Good introduction to the world of art therapy.
