Creative arts therapy

Sometimes words are not the easiest place to begin. Making an image, telling a story, or using a creative exercise can reveal something that is hard to reach through conversation alone.

Creative arts therapy offers another way to explore emotions, relationships, and experiences. You do not need to be artistic or produce anything beautiful. The focus is on what emerges while you create and what meaning it has for you. A therapist may combine creative work with conversation, reflection, and other therapeutic methods.

The form of the work depends on the clinician and what feels comfortable for you. You can talk about it together before trying anything. If you have spent a long time explaining your difficulties and still feel stuck, a creative approach may give you a fresh way in.
