Art Therapy
Traumatic memories are non-verbal, situational, emotional and sensory experiences, and it is difficult for the client to talk about those experiences. These memories often generate high anxiety when directly discussed in the session.
Many verbal and non-verbal methods when using art in session support the successful neurobiological processing of the client's traumatic memory.
My clients are often amazed by the depth and the improvements they achieve through art.
Please note that you don't need artistic skills to engage with art, as we will focus on the process and not on the final art product.
