You do not need any artistic skills just a willingness to experiment using the different art materials. Creating art allows the client an alternative to using words to express how they are feeling and enables them to connect with difficult issues they feel unable to talk about. This art making process combined with therapy is designed to assist the client in making positive changes in their personality and life style that will outlast the session itself and help towards achieving their full potential. Art allows a client to achieve a meeting place between their inner and outer world. Art therapy offers a 'bridge' between the individual's inner and outer experiences.
