Expressive Arts Therapy includes music-making, movement, drama (including Psychodrama and Playback Theatre), vocal sounding, drawing and painting, creating sculpture, and writing poetry or other creative writing.
- The expressive arts work with your whole life experience
- The arts will help you create more harmony, balance, and joy.
Creating art helps support a deep sense of emotional stability and encourages healthy, happy relationships.
- Use dramatic techniques to understand the diversity of roles you play in your inner and outer lives.
- Paint, write, or journal about the experience.
- Move!
Exploring life through the arts helps clarify issues, work with a current or past life situation, and develop a sense of community.
Both theatre and the visual arts use movement, gesture, and expression to foster positive change in ourselves and the groups we work and live in. They can also increase physical, spiritual, and emotional health while fostering the development of new skills.
In entering therapy, you are investing in yourself and your future. The expressive arts can help you see things about yourself that might be missed in simple conversation. I will support you as you develop insight into your artistic creations and help you find and give voice to your true self.
