What is Expressive Arts?

Expressive Arts is a therapeutic approach that integrates various creative modalities such as art, dance, music, and creative writing to promote healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. Implementing this approach into 1:1 counseling sessions or workshops engages various senses, which makes for an enriching, cathartic, and empowering experience. With creative expression and support from a facilitator, individuals can address and process past trauma, everyday challenges, and future aspirations to gain clarity and build resilience on their path to personal evolution.

You don’t have to be a skilled artist to do this work, but it can certainly help reveal your inner artist! The goal is not to create the most perfect piece of art; rather, the intention is to tap into your inner child and allow the flow of creativity to reveal your inner world and serve as a channel for personal transformation. Openness and curiosity during the sessions are encouraged to facilitate the transmutation process, ultimately leading to a greater sense of inner peace and heightened confidence.
