Webinar: When words are not enough: Art therapy, creativity and your mental health
The benefit of talking about our difficulties is becoming more and more well known, but it's important to acknowledge that verbal communication sometimes falls short of fully conveying our feelings and emotions. Art and creative therapies offer an alternative for expressing, communicating, and processing thoughts, memories, and emotions.
This webinar explores the significant role creative expression can play in supporting mental health and will provide practical interventions to try at home.
What you will learn
- Creative therapies overview: Different forms of art and creative therapies.
- Benefits of non-verbal expression: How it can help you to express your emotions.
- Practical interventions: Creative activities to incorporate into your daily routine.
