Expressing your self through Art in the Counselling Session

During these sessions we use drawing, mandala, sculpting, painting or collage. It is up to the client to chose the medium they wish to use. No skills are necessary to participate. You will begin to explore creative means of expressing yourself. Through the art process, individuals can often approach difficult issues and convey a message much clearer than with words. The art then serves as a record of these events which the individual can later reflect on and eventually understand with greater clarity. Using simple art materials you will be able to:

• express feelings too difficult to talk about
• make verbal expression more accessible
• identify feelings
• identify blocks to emotional expression and growth
• provide an avenue for communication
• increase self esteem and confidence
