Art Therapy

At Alternatives For Children, licensed art therapists provide weekly art therapy sessions where children engage in hands-on, creative activities.

Art Therapy supports children’s cognitive, sensorimotor, social, and emotional development while building self-awareness, confidence, and emotional resilience.

Through exploring different materials and textures, children strengthen fine motor skills, body awareness, attention, and problem-solving abilities.

Art therapy also offers a safe, structured space for children to express emotions, understand the feelings of others, and develop focus, self-regulation, and social skills.

Families receive a monthly Art Therapy newsletter with weekly updates on what their children are doing in art therapy.

Children are gathered around a table, painting with watercolors in a classroom.
