Art Therapy
Art therapy is a form of therapy that utilises a variety art techniques and materials to help individuals express themselves, explore their emotions, and gain a better understanding of themselves. It combines the creative process with theory and counseling techniques to promote healing, personal growth, and overall well-being.
During art therapy sessions, individuals are encouraged to engage in different art activities such as painting, drawing, sculpting, collage-making, or any other creative form that they feel comfortable with (some tasks require specific mediums). The focus is not on creating a masterpiece, but rather on the process of creating and the emotions and thoughts that may arise during the process. Art can be used in therapy, as therapy or a combination of both.
