Art Therapy promotes creativity for personal and social empowerment.

It is “a form of psychotherapy that uses art media as its primary mode of expression and communication” (British Association of Art Therapists, www.baat.org).

Art therapists work with children, young people, adults and older people in a variety of health, education, social care, advocacy and community services.
