What might a typical session look like?
✅ A typical art therapy session lasts 60 minutes, but can be adjusted to 45 if that’s a better fit for the client.
✅ The journey begins with an engaging assessment session. During this time, the therapist gently guides the client through a creative art-making experience, all while getting to know their unique needs and identifying key goals.
✅From there, every session is customized to meet the client’s specific needs, ensuring a meaningful and effective therapeutic experience.
