Alisa Lindenbaum
Art Therapist, MPS, ATR-BC, LCAT, LPAT
Art and Play comes naturally to children and puts them at ease, making it more possible for them to tackle challenges and concerns than traditional talk therapy.
Art therapy facilities social, emotional, and cognitive development, allowing a child to move further towards reaching their true potentials.
Creative arts psychotherapy positively affects mood, cognition and behavior. This is particularly evident in children with special needs, PTSD, developmental disabilities, and other mental and behavioral health conditions or those dealing with grief, divorce, bullying, and other challenges.
Involvement in art activities also allows kids to grow confidence. It’s a way to open up dialogue about situations that may be hard to deal with or share. Articulating their emotions in a creative way can be both therapeutic and insightful.
Expression through art is a way to help these kids identify and broach otherwise difficult to understand emotions, feel a sense of normalcy without judgment, while also allowing them to show their individual personality and bring attention to their strengths.
