Our approach

Art therapy provides children and young people with a creative, welcoming space to express themselves, explore ideas and connect with others. Our art therapists support each child in ways that feel safe, thoughtful and centred on their strengths and interests. Sessions are designed so every child can take part, no matter their ability. Children’s own ideas and passions guide the creative process — building confidence, connection and a strong sense of belonging.

What is art therapy?

Art therapy is a mental health and wellbeing approach that integrates psychotherapeutic techniques with creativity to improve physical, cognitive and emotional health. Best of all, it’s a lot of fun! Art therapy is not an art class. In art therapy, we focus on the creative process not the finished product. Art therapy explores drawing, painting, sculpting, sensory investigation and many other creative formats that give our children and young people an opportunity for creative expression.

How can art therapy help?

Art therapy is so much fun for children and young people and it also has many benefits. Art therapy can help children and young people with disability to:

  • communicate and express thoughts and feelings
  • be creative and explore new things
  • feel independent and empowered
  • build confidence and self-esteem
  • support fine motor skills
