Expressive Arts Therapy

This modern and growing approach to recovery focuses on clients expressing their complex and ever-changing emotions in a non-verbal way–through art! This can be less threatening and invasive than typical verbal therapy. Guided by an experienced artist and counselor, clients of Spirit Lodge are encouraged to use colors, symbols, and imagery to freely express themselves, using various media. This form of therapy has been found to stimulate healing on a level that traditional therapies may not achieve. The program, which requires no previous artistic ability or expectations, encourages clients to explore themselves and resolve inner conflicts that, otherwise, could have been hidden from more clinical styles of therapy. It’s a therapeutic outlet of free expression and communication.
