What is 'Art Therapy'?
Most people understand, and would agree that artistic pursuits are generally understood to be beneficial to emotional health and wellbeing.
These activities can take any form, such as painting, sculpting, music, and even cooking! Anything creative and/or artistic usually works towards soothing and healing emotional and even physical stress and imbalances.
Art Therapy makes use of psychotherapeutic techniques in conjunction with creative processes to improve mental health and wellbeing.
The goal is to use these processes to help people explore their own self-expression and, in doing so, discover insights into their own previously untapped abilities and coping mechanisms.
