Art as Therapy

Art as Therapy is a process that uses creative activities—like drawing, painting, or sculpture—to help individuals express emotions, explore feelings, and enhance mental well-being. It is not focused on artistic skill but on the therapeutic benefits of the creative process. Engaging in art can promote self-awareness, reduce stress, and facilitate healing, especially for those facing emotional, psychological, or physical challenges. Trained art therapists guide this process, creating a safe space where clients can communicate non-verbally and gain insight into their experiences, supporting overall mental health and personal growth.
