Art Therapy supports children to express emotions through creative processes such as drawing, painting and working with clay. It is particularly helpful for children who find it difficult to talk about their feelings.
Art Therapy allows children to explore emotions in a safe, non-judgemental way. The focus is not on artistic ability, but on self-expression and meaning. Creating artwork can help children externalise feelings, reduce anxiety and develop emotional awareness.
Children are offered a range of art materials and supported to create freely. Sessions are paced carefully to ensure emotional safety, with the therapist supporting reflection and understanding when appropriate. Each session is tailored to the child’s needs and stage of development.
Parents and carers are kept informed through regular reviews, ensuring shared understanding and consistent support around the child.
