After working many years with chronically ill children in a hospital setting I have learned that there are so many more ways to heal than medicine and speaking alone.
Traditional counseling is not the best fit for every individual and there are so many other pathways to healing available to you. Art therapy can provide an expressive non-verbal experience to unlock the inner world and provide clarity to those who are struggling with mental health. Using creativity to heal can be used by all ages from 5-100+. If you feel that the traditional counseling setting just isn't working for you and you are looking to gain a different perspective on the healing process, art therapy may be just for you.
