Children & Teens
50 minutes, $120
Therapeutic practice located at the Te Ara Sophia community centre, 275 Fifield Terrace, Opawa, Christchurch.
Each session includes all art materials.
In an arts therapy session the therapeutic process is tactile, imaginative and playful, and complementary to the processing style of children and teens. Sessions involve engaging with age-appropriate art materials and interventions to help clients express themselves freely and begin to understand their needs and emotions in a safe and non-judgemental environment. Conversation is welcome but not always necessary or comfortable for a client and I will adjust to meet the needs of each individual.
Adults
50 minutes, $120
Therapeutic practice located at the Te Ara Sophia community centre, 275 Fifield Terrace, Opawa, Christchurch.
Each session includes all art materials.
In a session I invite clients to draw on the arts, alongside conversation, to create tangible representations of internal experiences, or simply utilise the arts as a tool for self-regulation. This gentle creative process can help a client gain new insight into emotions and behaviours, or uncover unconscious belief systems and unmet needs. Creativity can also be used to honour experiences of significant change or loss. Clients don’t need to be “good” at art, the emphasis lies on the process of making and the emotions and awareness that come with it, rather than the end result.
