Modalities
Creative Art Therapy – Creative Arts Therapy is the therapeutic use of creative process and visual imagery. Margaret Naumburg, was one of the first to define art therapy as a distinct form of psychotherapy in the 1940s yet the use of art and healing has been evident throughout many different cultures since ancient times.
The creative process can expand self-understanding and offer insight not available through other means, and can extend one’s ability to communicate. Art expressions are personal narratives conveyed through images, as well as through the stories that people attach to those images. Finding personal meaning in one’s images is a powerful way of knowing yourself and a powerful form of healing. New group forming in January.
