In the vulnerable teen years, it’s easy to be overwhelmed. From school pressures to social media blitzes, teens are always ‘on.’ Their phone seems to be connected to them like the umbilical cord was when they were born. These experiences can leave your children feeling anxious, depressed, lost, or alone. Our art therapy group for teens uses music, movement, writing and drama to teach management of difficult emotions and practice communication skills. The skills gained through creative problem solving in the art room will transfer to real-life situations, helping your teen develop critical thinking and decision-making abilities.

Art therapists are trained professionals who combine the therapeutic techniques of counseling with the creative process of art-making to help individuals express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. This group is ideal for adults seeking stress relief, chronic pain management, communication skills practice, or emotional healing. No prior artistic skill is required to experience the benefits of art therapy. The goal of art therapy is not to create a masterpiece, but rather to facilitate the therapeutic process of self-expression and self-discovery. Call today for a free 15-minute phone consultation!
