Art Therapy Program

Our Art Therapy DBT programs offer healing through a hands-on approach. Meaningful engagement with art can assist one in coping with life’s stressors by:

• Learning, identifying, and describing difficult emotions
• Practicing interpersonal communications skills
• Engaging in the art of mindfulness

Previous experience is not necessary to benefit from art therapy, all experience levels are welcomed. Art therapy uses creative means to assist in self-expression and personal exploration, practicing mindfulness, and integrating DBT skills learned. This group is held for both adult and adolescent clients.

Art therapy comes in many forms including painting, drawing, doodling, using clay, writing, sculpture, use of found objects, printmaking, collage, and more. Supplies are provided on-site for clients to use. While telehealth services are being provided, art therapy can be done using minimal materials such as paper, writing utensils, and even digital media. Consider joining our DBT art therapy program if you are interested in learning and generalizing DBT skills with a creative modality.
