Why do families need Art Therapy?

Many families today have been deprived of the ability to explore, experiment, be creative and play.

This might have stemmed from the loss of parent(s); abuse (mental, physical, sexual); neglect; being raised in an "overly rational" culture; or a poverty environment of too much time in front of the screen; or.....

Sometimes things happen to children of those close to them that cannot be prevented.

How does Expressive Arts Therapy help Families?

Through art and play, children are allowed to think about or even change a difficult or overwhelming experience into something small enough to cope with.

A child experiences growth by playing out feelings as he or she brings them to the surface, faces them, learns to control them and abandons them.

Children are given the freedom and space to express themselves in their own terms exactly as they are at that moment in their own way and in their own time.

The custodial parent will be included in several sessions to foster attachment, improve the parent-child relationship, and be an active participant of change in their children.
