What is Art Therapy?

Wendi has an interesting W4 this week. We are inviting you to find out about what Art Therapy is and how it can benefit our mental health. A summery of what art therapy is below.

"Through integrative methods, art therapy engages the mind, body, and spirit in ways that are distinct from verbal articulation alone. Kinesthetic, sensory, perceptual, and symbolic opportunities invite alternative modes of receptive and expressive communication, which can circumvent the limitations of language. Visual and symbolic expression gives voice to experience and empowers individual, communal, and societal transformation."
