Why Art Therapy?
Reaching out for help is a healthy thing to do when dealing with, and trying to make sense of, life and its pressures. At times, putting it all into words might be quite difficult. Art therapy provides a new language for communication. Inner balance and peace can be the results of artistically expressed and reframed old feelings.
