Art therapy helps children and young people understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by creating images and objects. This process allows them to visualize their inner experiences and gain support from an art therapist to better understand themselves and find solutions.
For some, expressing feelings through art is easier and less threatening than traditional talk therapy, especially when verbal communication is challenging. Objects and images can also illustrate progress.
Here's where you can access art therapy for kids in Kenya.
