Art Therapy
Art therapy is an active process that can enhance awareness, healing and well-being, providing a visual doorway into emotions, perspectives and solutions.​ It allows safe access to feelings, thoughts and experiences.
Art therapy doesn't require artistic skill on the client's part. People of all ages and backgrounds use art therapy to:
-
Try out new forms of self-expression
-
Gain access to emotions
-
Grapple with conflicts
-
Assimilate current and past events
-
Deal with injury and illness
-
Strengthen sense of identity​
