We are all born with the ability to imagine, play, explore and create.
But more often than not, trauma and difficult life events keep us from moving forward. The role of creative arts therapy is to help us imagine new life possibilities again.
The creative arts therapies allow us to find forms of expression not limited to words or traditional talk therapies. Creative arts therapy is as limitless as the imagination in finding new modes of expression.
