What Is Art Therapy?
Psychotherapy that integrates creative expression with psychological insight.
Art therapy can help you explore feelings, reduce anxiety, work through grief or trauma, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself — using both conversation and visual art processes.
You do not need to be “artistic” to benefit from art therapy. The focus is on expression, not skill or aesthetics.
