Art therapy offers an effective approach by tapping into your own ability to solve problems and articulating visually that which is difficult to express in words. The creative and art making process can provide insight, improve self-awareness, build self-confidence, cultivate problem-solving skills and provide a meaningful and transcendent experience that can improve mood and reduce distress.

The type of artwork done or reviewed in an art therapy session is tailored to each individual’s strengths, interests and therapy goals. The art therapist does not judge or analyze the artwork, rather helps each individual find personal meaning in their own expressions.

Art materials can include painting, drawing, collage, printmaking, sculpture, photography, writing, poetry, mixed media and more. As needed, the art therapist will support you in choosing materials and learning what you need to know to use them. No art experience or talent is necessary to experience benefits from art therapy, and the process of creation can be as therapeutic and rewarding as the completed piece.
