Art Therapy
Art is another form of communication. "A mind that is open to growth and change is a hub from which values and goals can be brought to life and realized". We are the agents of our own life, and taking ownership for our own development, is a key component. Art brings the unconscious to the fore.
The neurobiological impacts of trauma affect relationships, but this can be reversed if the environment is receptive to change and growth. Promoting emotional and psychological health whilst enhancing sense of belonging and engagement. It provides clients with the tools and support needed to navigate their already conflicted minds and bodies.
Through the medium of art you are offered an avenue to access your implicit memory without the reliance on verbal expression.
