Art Therapy
|
Art Therapy is a form of psychotherapy where the art therapist has been trained to use visual art making (drawing & painting & sculpture) therapeutically to help the person work through specific issues of difficulties and help them to understand their relationships with family/whanau and friends. Art Therapy helps to improve physical, mental and emotional well-being. You need no experience in art making to engage in art therapy and find it useful, as the focus is on the creative process not a finished product. Art therapy is especially useful for children and people with disabilities who may find talking therapies too challenging. Serena has a Masters in Art Therapy from La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia. Serena adheres to the Ethical Guidelines of ANZACATA (Australia New Zealand Asia Creative Arts Therapy Association as well as the Ethical Guidelines of NZAC (New Zealand Association of Counsellors).
