Creative Arts Therapy combines psychotherapeutic/counselling methods with creative expression, allowing participants to access their subconscious through imagery, dreams and metaphor. Children are already connected to this way of expressing, whereas adults have often forgotten the importance of this way of knowing, relying more on verbal expression and logic/reason to solve problems. For this reason, Creative Arts Therapy can be very effective at giving one’s inner child a voice, making it incredibly beneficial for healing childhood trauma or deeply repressed beliefs that can unknowingly affect your behaviours, feelings and thoughts in day-to-day life. It’s also of great benefit to those who feel stuck, those with anxiety/depression and those who find verbal expression challenging/limiting.
