About this service
Art therapy is a mode of therapy that allows children and adolescents to express themselves through art creation. Artwork in therapy is seen as a reflection or extension of its creator. Unlike in a school-based art class, children are not creating art for grades or for the expectations of teachers or others, but rather are encouraged to make art for themselves and for their healing.
Art Therapy at CASA focuses on emotion management, self-confidence, and self-expression.
