Art Therapy Group

Class Info:

Each week will start with a quick check-in and then by introducing a topic for 15 minutes. After the topic is introduced, participants will be given approximately 60 minutes to create something through an art directive using any art modality available (i.e. pencil crayons, pastels, paint, markers, crayons, glue, beads, etc.). Once the creating is done, participants will have 30 minutes together with the student Art Therapist to talk about their artwork, how it relates to the topic, and any relevant thoughts or feelings that came up during the process of creating. **Fine arts skills are not necessary at all! Art Therapy is always about the process of creating and what that means to the participant, not about the end result, therefore there is never an expectation that anyone creates something beautiful or professional.
