Art therapy is a form of therapy that combines art making with the support of a trained art therapist. Many types of creativity can be used, including paint, pastel, collage, clay, sculpture, depending on what suits the individual. Art therapy is appropriate for people of all ages, and has a focus on well being and creativity, as opposed to artistic skill.
Art making and many forms of creativity are calming and fun, they can help us build self confidence and express emotions and ideas. Art making alongside an art therapist can help us explore our own hauora, process difficult situations, or gain a new perspectives on things happening in our lives.
I am currently offering one on one art therapy sessions with myself as a training art therapist, for children who are struggling with confidence, feeling isolated, experiencing bullying, or who are having trouble focusing at school. I am also offering sessions for children who are transitioning to intermediate school. Participants attend 4-6 hour long session which take place at Arts for Health centre in Hamilton on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9.30am, 11am and 1pm. Sessions cost $10 each. First sessions are a time to assess client and therapist suitability, and participants can withdraw at any time.
Contact Arts for Health Community Trust, some criteria apply.
