ART THERAPHY FOR SEN
Art Therapy has proven to be a successful form of treatment for special education students and kids with other behavioral, emotional, or psychological issues. This type of therapy can be considered a psychotherapeutic service. It allows kids to express themselves in nonverbal ways using art tools and supplies. This form of expression can tell a counselor many things. In fact, it provides a way for the child to communicate things they simply cannot say in words.
The kinds of artwork done by students in this type of therapeutic situation are quite varied. They may include making collages, drawing pictures. painting murals, crafting puppets, and creating sculptures, among a myriad of other activities. All of these are ways for the child to express their feelings and to provide information indirectly to the therapist.
