About this service
Expressive Arts or Creative Arts Therapy is a multi-modality approach to treating a wide array of diagnoses. The E. A. Therapist engages the client in sessions that employ art, music, movement, drama, filmmaking, storytelling, or writing in order to facilitate healing, improve quality of life, and address treatment goals and objectives in the cognitive, social, emotional, and physical domains. But why can Expressive Arts Therapy be an exceptionally good fit for addressing eating disorders, body dissatisfaction, and body image?
Sometimes, the more we intellectualize through talk, the more the split between our thoughts and feelings widens. When we shift to a more right brain, creative approach and engage in art, movement, drama, etc. the door opens for client to shift from explaining their feelings to actually feeling them. In that moment there is a tangible body experience of how feelings affect them, and a safe place to explore ways to manage those feelings.
