Art Therapy
What is Art Therapy?
Art therapy helps people describe their experiences and how they have been affected. It supports their wellbeing, emotional and mental health needs.
Creating Art can be healing and life enhancing as well as a form of communication when words are difficult or not enough. It encourages personal growth and increases understanding and healing.
Our art therapists believe all individuals have the capacity to express themselves creatively and it is not always the picture or object that is made but each persons’ involvement in creating, at their own pace, alongside the therapist that is important.
We have a range of art materials available at The Green House for creative therapeutic activities. No experience of art is needed, our therapists will support you along the way and move at your pace.
Transpersonal art therapy
Transpersonal Arts therapy uses art as a language to express our deep thoughts, emotions and feelings. It mixes psychology, creativity and spirituality.
The word transpersonal literally means ‘beyond the person’. This means looking beyond labels and thought patterns and making sense of that ‘vibe’ you feel. It is an all-round approach that focuses on the health of body, mind and spirit.
