Art Therapy for Children and Adults
What Is Art Therapy?
Art Therapy is a type of psychotherapy that utilizes the trust between the art therapist and client, along with the making of art and the use of words, to express feelings and experiences. Art Therapy fosters healing and positives changes in life. By combining traditional verbal counseling techniques, along with art therapy approaches, treatment will utilize the creative process in a supportive, safe environment.
Art therapy techniques include drawing, painting, collage, clay-work and the creation of 3-dimentional art to explore feelings and experiences. No artistic ability or knowledge is necessary to engage in art therapy. The art therapist will provide materials and assist in the art making and therapeutic process. Art Therapy goals include reconciliation of emotional conflicts, self-awareness, management of behavior and addictions, improvement of relationships, development of social skills, reduced anxiety, and increased self-esteem.
