Art Therapy

Art therapy, often used in conjunction with talk therapy, can assist individuals of all ages in reducing distress and enhancing self awareness. Art therapy may be turned to when there are limitations in verbal expression due to age or ability, and also as a means for promoting emotional insight. Art therapists use tools for creative expression that might include drawing, painting, sculpture, collage, to name a few. At all times, the emphasis of the art invitation is on the process rather than the product.
