At the same time, art therapy's power resides in it being a whole brain activity. proved with science any kind of creative activities light up the brain - this activation allows individuals to unconsciously process emotions and experiences from neural pathways they have not be be able to access before.

What can I expect in a session?

An Art Therapy session typically involves a series of deeply personally devised creative exercises accompanied by some discussion or reflection. My preferred techniques include collage, clay-work, painting, sculpture and drawing. Other techniques that can be incorporated include journal writing, psychodrama (role-playing), relaxation or mindfulness meditation. These techniques also serve as valuable tools in discussing dreams, developing rituals, or complementing more traditional psychotherapy methods.
