PGCE
BA (Hons)

Registered with HCPC and a member of the British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT). Art Therapy is often described as a form of Psychotherapy that uses art to express and explore our inner worlds. Sometimes people find it difficult to talk about what is troubling them, or prefer to communicate using visual expression. The process of making art can be helpful in itself - you don't have to end up with a finished piece. Children will use art and play as a natural part of their communication. Helping children to put words to their creations (although words are not always necessary) can help them to find a way of expressing themselves to others that might otherwise be perceived as difficult behaviours. Having things seen in a different way through the art can be enormously helpful for parents and carers too. Adults who come to Art Therapy often find great relief in being allowed some space to re-connect with their more playful and spontaneous selves. Those who have experienced difficult childhoods may find it helpful to release stuck feelings from that time. Neuroscience tells us that the parts of the brain activated during art-making are the same as those in pre-verbal development.
