EXPRESSIVE ARTS THERAPY
When we experience trauma, disappointment and setbacks without resolution and healing, we unconsciously allow the emotional scars to dictate the course of our lives and relationships. These scars create the lens through which we view ourselves, others and the world we live in. Through that lens, we unconsciously create the story of who we are and what we’re capable of.
Expressive therapies add a unique dimension to psychotherapy and counseling because they have several specific characteristics not always found in strictly verbal therapies, including, but not limited to:
self expression
active participation
imagination
mind-body connections.
Creativity in therapy has the potential to impact clients in memorable ways that traditional interventions do not. Clients are given the opportunity to be come active participants in their own treatment and empower themselves to use their imagination in productive and corrective ways. Whether through art, play, music, movement, enactment, or creative writing, expressive therapies stimulate the senses, thereby "sensitizing" individuals to untapped aspects of themselves.
