Art psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach that integrates the creative process of making art with traditional psychotherapeutic techniques to facilitate self-expression, insight, and healing. It's perfect for everyone because:
What is Art Psychotherapy?
You don't need any past art experience.
It's accessible to people of all ages and abilities.
All of our art therapists are dual certified in art therapy and psychotherapy, which means it is covered by insurance.
The Creative Psych Approach
Art therapy sessions are highly individualized to meet each client's specific needs. Some common art-making experiences include:
Collage making
Sculpting
Painting
Drawing
During these activities, the art therapist plays a crucial role by guiding the experience and offering observations within a relational context. Additionally, post-art-making elements often include counseling and personal reflection to further support the client's therapeutic journey.
What happens in art therapy is up to you, but supported in collaboration with the art, the therapist, and the therapeutic space. Sometimes we paint, sometimes we talk. At times we play around or learn a new skill. Other times we get messy or make incomplete art.
Benefits of Art Therapy
Art therapy offers a multitude of benefits for seniors, adults, teens, and kids because it provides a unique avenue for expression and healing. Engaging in artistic activities under the guidance of a trained therapist can yield transformative results:
