Art Therapy is a unique type of Psychotherapy that uses image making alongside/instead of words.
Sometimes it can be difficult to talk about problems
and that’s when art therapy can be really
useful as the art can work as a stepping stone towards
understanding and recovery.
Other benefits include –
Breaking down barriers and stigma.
Building hope and resilience, which supports people to take steps forward in their
lives.
Healing from trauma, exploration and growth, revealing challenges that are underlying our issues and give us the opportunity to address them.
Supporting people to identify strengths and creativity.
Art Therapy is a confidential therapy, like other therapies. Through art therapy we can process our emotions, explore personal relationships and life experiences and the ways in which these have shaped us. As Therapists we take a Non – Judgemental and Non – Stigmatising approach, holding our clients in constant high regard.
