Art Therapy

Art therapy is typically combined with other forms of psychotherapy and uses art as the medium for a patient to express and communicate with a therapist. Making art can be a very creative process and can be pleasurable and healing for people experiencing trauma, stress and various cognitive disabilities. Art is a form of expression and communication when it is difficult to express oneself verbally. The subconscious mind often speaks to us through pictures. Expressing through art can help one resolve conflict. Art and color is also used in medical intuitive evaluation and interpretation.
