The Art Therapy Program through Art InDeed is for children, teens, families, seniors - the community at large!
Art therapy is a psychotherapy wherein individuals of all ages and backgrounds use art in varying ways. No matter how it is used, art therapy is a creative outlet for people struggling with the circumstances of their lives. It is particularly beneficial for children. Children are naturally creative. Creating artwork is a fun and non-threatening venue that allows kids to tackle tough issues in a creative way.
The Art Therapy Program at Art InDeed uses the art making tools and expressive modalities as a medium to explore, experiment and to provide opportunities for: Stress relief, lifting mood, and building self-esteem. The program also focuses on processing grief and loss and emotional regulation. We use art to soothe transitions (new siblings, new settings, new school, after a big move, big life changes).
Relaxation, building art skills and technique and developing pride in accomplishment are also goals of this program.
