Frequently asked questions about expressive art therapy

Discover how expressive art therapy at Reframe Reclaim Rejoice Wellness can support your journey towards self-understanding and emotional well-being. We're here to answer your most pressing questions.

How would you describe expressive art therapy to a newcomer?

Imagine being able to understand when fears, doubts, imposter syndrome, or negative limiting beliefs arise in your body. We equip you to understand where those stories, feelings, sensations, and emotions stem from. Expressive art therapy differs from other approaches because by simply 'being,' we learn and value that we are enough exactly as we are. By slowing down and noticing the world around us, it becomes second nature to witness ourselves and others. We notice how we are mirroring one another, and what we see in others, we relate to ourselves. We look at how comparison can be a thief of joy, as it leads us to perceive and expect our journeys to be identical to others when they never can be. We learn to embrace our individuality, gifts, and quirks, and see life as a series of valuable lessons.

Who benefits most from expressive art therapy?

Expressive art therapy is for all people who want to connect back to themselves. It helps you get out of your mind and reconnect with your body. It's especially beneficial for those wanting to connect from a place of compassion and grace by exploring what triggers, activates, or stimulates their system. You'll learn how to regulate yourselves with poetry, song, dance, music, movement, or cooking that is nurturing, replenishing, and helpful.

What can one expect during an expressive art therapy session?

You can expect renewal and a tapping into the natural medicines that we carry within us and that the universe organically offers daily. Sometimes we just need a reminder – a safe space and an opportunity to explore and be curious. With each layer we dismantle and examine, we can emerge cleansed and renewed.

Are individual sessions available?

Yes, individual sessions are available in person, online, or by phone. Please contact us to schedule your session.

Is expressive art therapy covered by insurance?

Yes, our services are covered by NIHB and many insurance providers. Please check with your provider for details.
