Methods such as drawing, painting, beads, jewelry, photography, fabric,
paper-making, and clay building are used to provide individuals the opportunity to explore personal
difficulties and potentials through verbal and non-verbal expression and communication.
Art therapy sessions are a confidential, non-threatening place to relax, have fun,
and feel free to share personal thoughts. In our open-studio environment, there
is a quick introduction of the day's topic, the creation process, sharing your
image with others and what the image may mean to you, followed by a closure of identifying themes.
Discussion is encouraged, as this increases an individual’s ability to relate with
others in positive, supportive ways. All sessions have specific goals and are documented.
Individual sessions include accepted testing if desired.
