Feel inspired
Art Therapy can help you to:
> find a safe outlet
> gain insight
> improve coping
> experience relaxation & distraction
> be empowered
During a session you will create artwork often in combination with discussion with the Art Therapist; exploring thoughts and feelings, describing images in your art, and sharing your reactions to the art materials or the theme.
Many Art Therapists incorporate other counselling techniques into their session such as cognitive behavioural techniques. An Art Therapist will not interpret your art. Their role is to guide you and encourage you to attach meaning to your artwork.
An Art therapy session:
