Art Therapy
We use art therapy with our clients because it is a safe, non-threatening and mostly non-verbal outlet for expressing what is going on inside. Art therapy is used to help our clients communicate, overcome stress, and explore different aspects of their personalities. In general, art therapy integrates psychotherapeutic techniques with the creative process, to improve mental health and well-being. We believe that the creative process involved in artistic self-expression helps adolescents to resolve conflicts and problems, develop interpersonal skills, manage behavior, reduce stress, and increase self-esteem and self-awareness.
Expressing Anger in Art Therapy
Teenagers can have a significant amount of anger built up inside of themselves. Whether it’s from trauma, or just pushing against the boundaries that their parents have put in place, they can develop anger over feeling constrained or not listened to. This anger can then come out inappropriately either turned toward the people in their lives or may lead them to drugs and alcohol to cope with their feelings. This group gives participants an outlet to express those feelings through their creativity. In this way, they have the opportunity to process their feelings and find healthy ways to release tension through their artwork, which many find to be a freeing experience
Teen anxiety is common and often begins in early adolescence. It can cause feelings of worry, fear, and nervousness, which may look like being tense, distracted, or on edge. Because symptoms can be subtle, it is sometimes not recognized right away. With the right support and professional care, many teens learn to manage anxiety effectively and build healthy coping skills.
Expressive art therapy offers a unique and powerful way to explore thoughts and emotions beyond words. At Meadow Hill Behavioral Health, we provide this creative, evidence-informed approach to clients of all ages in Northampton, Boston, and surrounding areas. Using visual arts, movement, music, and other creative forms, clients are guided to express themselves in a safe, supportive environment that encourages self-discovery and emotional release.
This therapy is especially beneficial for individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, or difficulty communicating their inner world through traditional talk therapy. By integrating artistic expression with therapeutic guidance, clients develop new insights and coping tools. Whether you’re in Northampton or commuting from Boston or nearby communities, expressive art therapy can help you access healing in ways that feel natural and empowering.
