WHAT IS ART THERAPY?

EXPRESSIVE ARTS THERAPY (EAT) is an evidence-based, globally renowned psychotherapeutic practice that combines a range of creative modalities, namely art, writing, movement, mindfulness, music, imaginative play and sometimes dramatic enactments. These creative forms of self-expression are combined to different extents according to the needs of the client, with as much talking as the client and therapist deem necessary. The creative modalities serve as the language or forms of communication in EAT. Such non-verbal means of communication tap directly into implicit, embodied traumatic experiences, that are stored as a series of internal images, and can therefore elude verbal therapy alone. As abstract, non-concrete artwork, and much creative expression emerges directly from the unconscious, it’s manifestation provides a direct link to our shadow self. EAT thus provides a fairly direct route to aspects of the self that we need to explore in psychotherapy, and that are difficult to access with words alone, thus providing a very wide range of healing opportunities. Empirical research indicates that creative expression as a healing modality is effective in both clinical (art in therapy), and non-clinical (art as therapy) settings.
