information SERVICE DETAILS

Art therapy is a form of psychological therapy delivered by trained art therapists / art psychotherapists.

It’s designed to help people, including those whose life has been affected by adverse experiences, illness or disability, by supporting their social, emotional and mental health needs.

Art therapy participants use art to express their experiences, to find the words to articulate how they have been affected, and to support their wellbeing, and any social, emotional and mental health needs.

When our lives are affected by adversity, it can have an impact on our wellbeing – but this experience may be difficult to put into words. Because of this, art therapists are often able to work with people who have not been able to access talking therapies. In this way, art therapy helps to ensure that no one is left behind.
