What is art therapy?
Art therapy is a transformative blend of creativity and psychology, where individuals express themselves artistically to explore emotions, heal trauma, and foster personal growth. Through painting, drawing, sculpting, and other mediums, people communicate thoughts and feelings that may be difficult to verbalize. Guided by trained therapists, this process promotes self-discovery, empowerment, and emotional well-being, transcending words to unlock profound insights and healing. #therapy #arttherapy #wellbeing #mentalhealthcare #mentalhealth
Art Therapy vs Therapeutic Art
A lot of people often misunderstand therapeutic art for art therapy and use the words interchangeably. So, let's use these terminologies correctly henceforth. 💫 Examples of art therapy activities: HTP, Bridge Drawing, Tower, Gratitude tree, Chakra Healing Mandalas, etc. 💫 Examples of therapeutic art activities: fluid Art, texture art, origami, painting, etc. Therapeutic art is also, at times, called "art as therapy". Hope this was helpful. 😊
