Person centred creative arts counselling is similar to play therapy in that it is client lead but integrates creative arts with talking therapy.
This holistic approach can work very well for children and young people up to 18 years old and encourages the young person to be fully involved in the process from referral, consent, and how the sessions are undertaken. Some young people may want to talk and others may want to use creative arts to support in their processing.
The approach is based on extensive research around the client becoming the expert in their own solutions, with the support of the trained therapist.
Instead of being told what to do and how or being given answers that they may not need or want, the client works towards finding their own way to what they are searching for. In doing so the client is empowered and feels more aligned with the outcomes, meaning change from within them is more likely to be sustained.
