How a student engages with the materials in Art Therapy carries so much unspoken potential:

Certain materials can help a student let something out that is difficult to release with just words.

Other times, engaging with the right art materials helps a student to contain difficult emotions (or "hold themselves together") and be able to be more successful with their day to day challenges.

 

Art Therapists seek to support students in recognizing how their relationship with the art materials can be best used to identify  and meet their most current needs.
