Art Therapy for Anxiety
Art Therapy and Anxiety

During these challenging times, it seemed important to investigate how art therapy can help with anxiety.

In this article, I will give an insight into how the creative art making process can help with anxiety. I will outline some strategies to help anxiety and discuss whether colouring books are a useful tool for anxiety. I look at the process of art therapy and how it can enable us to express and explore emotions.

“For as long as I can remember I have suffered from a deep feeling of anxiety which I have tried to express in my art” Edvard Munch
