OUR VISION in practice

What is creative arts PsychoTherapy?

Our therapists in Bristol offer creative arts psychotherapy—an engaging and powerful approach that uses artistic expression, such as visual art, music, movement, and drama, to support emotional healing and self-discovery. This form of therapy offers a non-verbal way to explore difficult emotions and experiences, often helping you connect with feelings that are hard to express in words. By working with one of our Bristol therapists in a safe, non-judgmental space, you can use creative tools to better understand yourself, process emotions, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
