Art therapy is a form of therapy that uses the tangible art making process, art piece, and therapeutic relationship as aspects of therapy.

Exploring Tactile Art-Making With Deafblind Students And Their Families: An Opportunity For Creative Play, Alice Rodgers
Expressive Therapies Capstone Theses

In today’s application of art therapy in education there are three models most typically used. The research discusses the strengths and …

Art has been utilized time and time again to direct the urban population towards healthy forms of self expression. Previous examples of successful art programs will be surveyed as …
