BERMONDSEY ART THERAPY GROUPS

TAPPING INTO YOUR CREATIVITY WITH BERMONDSEY ART THERAPY GROUPS

art therapy

In anyone’s life, challenges can and do occur, some which can seem insurmountable and overwhelming. Often, these challenges or problems in life are compounded for those in high-pressure careers, in the public spotlight, or those who are seen leaders in the community or in business. Challenges can also be caused by relationship problems, grief, interpersonal problems with co-workers, struggles with depression or anxiety or when processing trauma or stress in your life.

If any of these are situations you are facing, Bermondsey art therapy groups offered at the Bermondsey Office are the solution you are seeking. Held in the tranquil and serene confines of the Tibetan Buddhist Mediation Centre for World Peace and Health, your participation in the groups will tap into the creative elements to bring out your inner thoughts. The groups will allow you to express ideas and solve problems in a very comfortable, non-judgemental and highly personal way

Bermondsey art therapy groups component

When Bermondsey art therapy groups is used in a group setting, which can involve adults, adolescents and children, in age-appropriate cohorts, the art therapist may use a range of different methods during the session.

In some groups, the art therapist may pose a question or a problem to the group, and then the participants depict their solution to the problem through their art. This is a very powerful problem-solving tool as it taps into the creative side of the brain, giving a wider perspective on the problem. The process allows participants to work through “blocks” or obstacles that may have prevented them from seeing a workable solution.

In other sessions, the artwork may be used as in introduction to discussion. This may include the art therapist talking with each participant or it may be more of a group process. This particular method is very helpful in allowing the participants to brainstorm and work together, providing support, encouragement, and alternative views and perspectives.

Types of Bermondsey art therapy groups

The method or type of art used in our Bermondsey art therapy groups at Philippe Jacquet & Associates can vary greatly. Drawing, painting and sculpting are very popular options and the kinaesthetic or movement aspect of outwardly expressing inner ideas is extremely powerful. Participants will be encouraged to try different art technique and mediums during the group sessions. Many participants find one particular medium resonates with them, providing the greatest freedom of expression. However, whatever the activity may be in the art therapy groups, the focus is not on the artistic technique. In some groups, the therapist may provide insight into specific art techniques, but the goal is to express inner thoughts, and not to produce a masterpiece.
