Art Therapy

The creative modalities are now being recognized as important instruments for therapeutic communication. Through these modalities, people can experiment with new ideas, express feelings, experience fantasies, and resolve fears.

Art Therapy offers an opportunity to explore personal problems and potentials through verbal and nonverbal expression. Therapy through art recognizes art processes, forms, content, and associations as reflections of an individual’s development, abilities, personality, interests, and concerns.

The use of art as therapy implies that the creative process can be a means both of reconciling emotional conflicts and of fostering self-awareness and personal growth. The subconscious mind directs the healing process through the drawing’s focal points. That is, what our attention focuses on in a drawing.

It is through such drawing that the therapist can utilize the use of symbols as a healing agent. If drawings are direct communications from the subconscious mind then they cannot be as easily camouflaged as can verbal communications.
