Using Art Therapy to Help People Heal

Using Art Therapy to Help People Heal

In psychology, the use of artistic methods to treat psychological disorders and enhance mental health is known as art therapy. Art therapy is a therapeutic technique rooted in the idea that creative expression can foster healing and mental well-being.

Art, either the process of creating it or viewing others' artworks, is used to help people explore their emotions, develop self-awareness, cope with stress, boost self-esteem, and work on social skills.
