What is Art Therapy?
Art Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses creative expression, like drawing, painting, or sculpture, to help people explore emotions, reduce anxiety, process trauma, or build self-understanding.
You don’t need to be “artistic.” Art therapy is for anyone who finds it hard to express feelings with words, or who simply wants to explore emotions in a non-verbal, creative way.

Who is Art Therapy for?
ArtTtherapy is for anyone who finds it hard to express emotions with words. It’s especially supportive for:
- Adults, teens, and children navigating emotional challenges
- People living with anxiety, grief, trauma, or overwhelm
- Neurodivergent individuals (e.g. ADHD, autism)
- Anyone drawn to a more creative, non-verbal way to heal
No artistic experience is needed — just a willingness to explore.
