What happens in art therapy?

• We agree on what will help you feel safe, trusting and confident.
• You’ll be offered a range of art materials, pictures, fabrics, clays & objects to explore. Some will be familiar, some might be new to you.
• You might know exactly what you want to draw, paint, create or play around with. Or you may want to be given suggestions to get started.
• Its not about being good at art. Together we explore feelings, difficulties and help make sense of things.
