Wellbeing during the sessions
The discovery and healing of self through art therapy can be very enjoyable, empowering and a positive journey of reflection through using the various forms of art mediums. But at times emotions can arise which may be a little confronting or take you by surprise. There are always trained facilitators to support you and there is a separate quiet room at the venue as a place to reflect if needs be. There are also beautiful walks next to the venue that you may wish to do to give yourself some quiet reflection time.
Each session provides a safe, respectful, inclusive, supportive place to explore aspects of self.
