ABOUT ART THERAPY
Sometimes words may be inadequate
to express how we feel...
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses visual art-making to help improve the physical, emotional and social well-being of a client, which can lead to increased resilience.
Finding the right words may sometimes be difficult or overwhelming. The process of art making creates opportunities for us to express things we find difficult to articulate.
Through a therapeutic approach, Art therapy provides an accessible way to communicate our thoughts, feelings and experiences in a safe and non-judgmental way to resolve conflicts, increase coping skills and enhance emotional regulation.

SANDPLAY THERAPY & SYMBOL WORK
Sandplay therapy is a non-verbal, expressive and sensory-based therapeutic approach that taps into the natural healing process innate in every individual. It combines play and symbolism to provide a unique and safe space for self-expression, exploration, and growth. Sandplay therapy is a creative intervention suitable for children, youth and adults of all ages.
SOMATIC EXPERIENCING
Somatic Experiencing is a bottom up therapy approach that focuses on healing trauma and stress by exploring the connection between the mind and body. Traumatic experiences, whether big or small, can get stuck in our nervous system, leading to various physical and emotional difficulties. Somatic Experiencing helps release these unresolved traumas and supports the restoration of balance and well-being.
COMMUNITY PROJECT
Through a communicative therapeutic approach that includes design, art-as-therapy and exhibition, we collaborate with community partners to reach out to more people to improve their psychosocial well-being.
