Description
About the Practice
When difficult life events come out as overwhelm or behaviour, art therapy can help adults see what the child is carrying. Anna Stephenson Art Therapy Sheffield gives Sheffield families a creative therapy route for children and young people who cannot always explain distress through words alone. The work is therapy, not an art class, music lesson or drama club: the creative medium is used to support emotional expression, regulation and repair.
