I would help this client by using a more DBT-focused approach and my experience as an art therapist.
My ideal client is someone who is motivated and ready to work on themselves. They are a client who attends each session as scheduled and on time, coming into it with an open mind and willingness to grow. The client would ideally be an adult who is within the LGBTQIA+ community and is coming to me to work on bettering themselves. Their issues would include depression, anxiety, and questioning their gender and sexual identity.

As a neurodivergent queer feminist art therapist, I'll help your child figure out who they are and more effectively deal with what's weighing them down emotionally.
I help neurodivergent/2e/ADHD & LGBTQ+ kids (ages 10-20) who’ve had it with school, feel excluded, and have meltdowns or shut down when you try to talk to them. Your child can learn to handle big emotions & address mental health concerns with neuro & queer affirming art therapy, so they can focus on "regular stuff" - finishing that project, sleepovers, extracurriculars. As a parent, you’ll have fewer crises, more time to enjoy your family & time for yourself, while your child’s improved confidence & flexible thinking will mean less frustration & chaos, and more time for learning, friends & activities that are meaningful to them.

Art Therapy

How does art therapy work?

The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.

Does art therapy help with trauma?

Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.

How long does art therapy last?

The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.

What are the limitations of art therapy?

Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
