What is Art Therapy?

According toThe American Art Therapy Association (AATA), art therapy is defined as, “an integrative mental health and human services profession that enriches the lives of individuals, families, and communities through active art-making, creative process, applied psychological theory, and human experience within a psychotherapeutic relationship.”

Art therapy has the ability to engage the body, mind and spirit in ways that are different from talk therapy alone. Visual expression has a way of empowering clients to see real and lasting changes in their lives. Art therapy should always be facilitated by a professional art therapist.
