art therapy

Art therapy can relieve stress and provide insight into the complexities of our personal lives and relationships. Self-expression and communication occur through the making of art as thoughts, ideas and emotions are expressed in a different way. No art skills are necessary.

It is the innate creative impulse in all human beings that leads to self-expression and individual growth. Development and healing can occur when people make their own objects and images as “good-enough” art. Art therapy provides a safe, empathic relationship and space to do this, and is in a unique position to foster the inner psychological, creative and aesthetic life of individuals and society.
