We are so excited to announce that a new Art Therapy Group for Teens will be launching soon at our Redmond location.
What is Art Therapy?
Art therapy is a powerful tool that can help people explore their emotions and experiences in a contained and creative way. The benefit of a group therapy is that it also invites the opportunity for participants to build meaningful connections with other group members. This group will help clients build a better understanding of their emotions while also strengthening inner awareness and giving space for insight to grow.
Our aim will be to harness the power of creativity to foster emotional expression, self discovery and healing. We will seek to connect with each other and come to a better understanding of our emotions and with it our unique gifts.
Why Art Therapy:
Art is a great outlet for exploring emotions and feelings that often can elude words.
Art therapy creates an opportunity for validation, acceptance while allowing for individual's emotions to be seen in a unique, and powerful way
Art provides safe containment for emotions the client is feeling/expressing
Art can help individuals differentiate between different feelings while also giving them the opportunity to better become more intimate with their emotions
Reflecting on art can bring us to a better understanding of our emotions and often lead to insight
Exploring art in a group setting provides ample opportunity for connection and creativity.
