Art Therapy
Art Therapy uses the nonverbal language of art for personal growth and transformation. This therapeutic process helps connect what is inside us(feelings,perceptions) with outer realities/life experiences.
Art therapy is used with individuals of all ages. You do not have to be a artist to participate in art therapy. It is about engaging in the process & focus is not on the final product.
Often times we can't find the words to express what is wrong. At these times, we can turn to images and symbols
to tell our stories. And in telling our stories through art, we can find
a path to healing, recovery, and transformation.
