How does Art Therapy help?

"The task of Therapy is not to eliminate suffering, but give a voice to it, to find a form in which it can be expressed." Stephan.K.Levine

Art records and preserves emotions from memories.

Promotes personal growth, even if it offers a new experience. Art allows us to reflect, react and empathise.

Allows you to reflect upon ideas and emotions, offering a new perspective and developing self-understanding. This is the “aha” moment when we see art that we can relate to and that makes sense.

No expectations are present, yet hope is always present.

Always has your interest in mind.

As an Art Therapist, the artwork and I will hold any suffering you share.

Helps you care for your wounds without overwhelming you or making your struggles worse.

Offers balance through taking time to observe and process.

All thoughts and feeling are welcome.

Validates emotions; happiness, sadness, despair, excitement. It provides a different perspective to consider emotions and new safe ways of coping.

Art helps us revisit the value of things and appreciate nostalgia. The sensory memories of a scenic place you visited. The pretty colours in a sunset.

Versatility means Art Therapy can be offered to a diverse range of people with varying challenges.
