What is Expressive Arts Therapies?
The expressive arts move people into the world of emotions. It gets people out of their heads and into their bodies. Experiences are stored in the body.

Many people are survivors of some kind of trauma, whether it is resulting from war or an abusive relationship.

Some people can't or choose not to speak about the violence they witnessed but find it easier to paint or dance or sing our their stories. Someone can find her voice again through the arts. She can learn that she has an inner power and an indestructible will that won't leave her.

The feelings of grief, anger, pain , fear and joy are the tunnel through which we must pass to get to the other side: to self-awareness, understanding and wholeness.

Other Principles of expressive arts therapies All people have the ability to be creative. Our feelings and emotions are an energy source. Personal growth takes place in a safe and supportive environment.

"Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: If you are still alive it isn't."
