Why Art Therapy, Sandplay & Puppet Therapy Works 
*
Art TherapyArt, Sandplay and Puppets are non threatening. They provide an alternative for those who struggle with language to express how they are feeling... The emphasis is on personal growth and discovery rather than working towards a finished piece to hang on your wall or in a gallery. However sometimes you may want to display your paintings or have them hanging in your private space to contemplate your process. By using the art, sandplay and puppets you will be stimulated by the creative and healing processes and it will offer you new challenges, thus enabling you to discover new things about yourself. You need no previous artistic skills, just openness to creativity, play and spontaneity...

The desire and aim of art therapy, sandplay and puppet therapy is to enable the client to effect change and growth on a personal level and to discover a healthier sense of self. These therapies offer the opportunity to explore personal problems and potentials through non-verbal creative work. These therapies are a unique combination of the fields of creativity, psychology and therapy.
