Mandala created by arts therapy patient
Creative arts therapists guide patients to create and reflect on art and the artistic process. They help people increase awareness of themselves and others, and enhance cognitive abilities, as well as cope with the symptoms of stress, illness and trauma. Patients gain improved self-esteem, develop more effective communication skills and create new options for coping with problems.
