Description
About the Practice
When a child needs to draw, make or imagine before they can talk, art therapy can make support feel less frightening. Mindscape Therapy Bournemouth Art Therapy gives Bournemouth 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.
