Art therapy is an excellent and proven solution to help address symptoms ranging everywhere from extreme stress to mental illness. Even if you don’t have a mental illness, practicing art by taking an art class can be beneficial to anyone looking to obtain a deeper meaning through artwork.

Many times, art therapy is used as part of a larger plan for coping with severe stress, traumatic events, learning disabilities, and other issues. People of any age — from children to the elderly — can all glean benefits from art.

Making art pieces with therapy in mind can help access inner feelings that might not be as readily available to people normally. The goal of many artists is to take inspiration from outside images, including landscapes, people for portraits, and other outer stimulus. The goad for art therapy and all its practitioners and participants, however, is to root for inspiration inside the mind, heart, and psyche. Art therapy looks to tap into the subconscious to help artists heal from wounds both mental and physical and move onward from experiences that may have been harmful to them in some way.

In order to access the subconscious, instructors might ask students in an art therapy class to complete drawings in darkness, constructing shadowboxes as memorials to loved ones who have been lost, creating “found” poems from magazine clippings to help express difficult feelings, or putting together an artful postcard that participants never intend to send. The goal of all projects is to help the students get in touch with deeper places inside themselves to help untangle everything from trauma to stress. Students can always work closely with teachers to develop appropriate projects and approaches to tackle whatever quality they have in mind.
