Art Therapy
What is art therapy?
Art therapy combines creativity and psychotherapy to support emotional expression, self‑regulation, and overall well‑being.
Through art materials, guided creative activities, and conversation, art therapists help children express themselves, build confidence, and develop emotional awareness in a safe and supportive environment.
