Art Therapy for Children

Children generally have less inhibitions and are closer to their imaginary worlds and innate sense of play. Art therapy is a very natural and enjoyable way for them to express themselves.   Their art is a vehicle of communication  which opens the opportunity to talk about feelings, challenges and frustrations.. Art acts as a bridge from which the art therapist and child can create a positive and trusting relationship. Communication skills often improve as well as self value and self esteem.

Sessions available for children. See rates below.

“Art & Soul” Workshops

Workshops are designed to stimulate and awaken creativity and self-awareness.  Starting with guided visualization, body awareness and breath-work, individuals then follow their intuition using the art materials provided. After tea, the space is open to share creations and inspirations.

Benefits include feeling a sense of connection with others, a deeper understanding of self, an opportunity to unwind, play and rejuvenate.

More about Art Therapy

We tend to think a lot and try to understand with our minds. At our fingertips we have ways of accessing and expressing emotions  that providse us with real guidance, direction and insight. The expression on the page is a representation of that which is hidden in the subconscious. What does it have to say?

The goal is not about making a pretty picture but about feeling and following what is real. Pent up energy may be released. The inner child which has been hidden can come out to dance and play, or ask what s/he needs from you, the adult, to heal the wounds and be whole again. Images are powerful and fresh and have more to say than the stories we tell ourselves about what happened. It’s time to create a new paradym. It’s time to release old patterns and live a life that fulfils your every dream.

*No artistic experience is needed.
