Art Therapy

Using art material  for self expression and self exploration while being gently witnessed in a supportive environment.

Art therapy is the intentional use of art-making to address psychological and emotional needs within a professional relationship.  Through creating art and reflecting on the art products and processes, people can increase awareness of self and explore personal issues or concerns.  It is important to state that being "good at art" is not necessary to benefit from art therapy.  No previous art experience or artistic talent is needed to participate in art therapy.  Art therapy can be used as a primary form of therapy or serve as an accompanying treatment to other forms of therapy.

Art therapists are master leveled professionals trained in both art and therapy. They are knowledgeable about human development, psychological theories, and clinical practice; as well as spiritual, multicultural and artistic traditions, and most of all the healing potential of art.
