Artzybella

Clinical art therapy combines art-making with psychotherapy to help improve mental and emotional health. Clinical art therapy can only be administered by a licensed registered art therapist as a one-on-one session.

The Science explained:

Clinical art therapy takes place in a controlled and structured setting, which allows the therapist to monitor the client’s progress closely and provide tailored support. The art therapist assesses the client’s needs through art-based assessments and formulates a treatment plan based on their psychological and emotional challenges. They then set specific therapeutic goals for the client and uses various art techniques and interventions to help them achieve these goals. This may include enhancing self-awareness, improving communication skills, or addressing trauma.

Nonclinical interactive 60 or 90-minute art session offered in groups or as an intimate one-on-one session led by ArtzyBella’s art instructors who are trained to guide activities using an uplifting and emotionally supportive approach.

Themes, interventions, and materials used for activities change frequently and are curated using scientific research and the combined expertise of ArtzyBella’s team of artists, educators, and therapists.

The Science Explained: 

Non-clinical art therapy takes place in a more relaxed and informal setting, which encourages participants to explore their creativity and self-expression without the pressure of a clinical environment. The primary focus of non-clinical art therapy is on personal growth and self-exploration.

Participants are encouraged to use art as a means of self-expression and self-discovery, which can lead to increased self-esteem and personal empowerment.

For individuals who are on the autism spectrum and seek a nonverbal, sensory-friendly, and structured outlet to express emotions, improve communication, and develop social and motor skills. This service will include a combination of interventions that feature therapeutic art-making and sensory play with certified/trained instructors.

The Science Explained: 

• Engaging in repetitive, structured art activities such as coloring, patternmaking, or clay sculpting can have a calming effect, reducing anxiety and self-stimulatory behaviors.
• The act of creating helps individuals process emotions and regulate overwhelming sensory input.
• Provides controlled sensory experiences that can increase tolerance for tactile sensations in a non-threatening manner and strengthen fine motor control for those with motor challenges.
• Encourages creative problem-solving, adaptability, and experimentation.
