“Often the hands will solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain.” Carl Jung
Expressive therapy pertains to the use of creative therapy means (art/ drama/ play/ music therapy) in a psychotherapeutic session. It is founded on the belief that by tapping into our creative expression and imagination, we can deepen our understanding of our bodies, emotions and thoughts, and bring about transformation.
In expressive therapy, your body’s sensory and kinesthetic experiences lay the groundwork to explore your emotional states and personal narratives. Expressive therapy loosens the mind’s control and has a soothing effect which allows you to go into a deeper level of implicit experience and connect with your raw, untapped healing power.
