This summer we had some great art therapy interns from Cedar Crest University who worked with our community members. We are thankful for interns and volunteers who are willing to use their skills and expertise to provide care and healing to our community members.
Art therapy provides a safe way to approach traumatic memories through the use of symbols and images. It integrates both the left and right side of the brain which helps individuals to express emotions, memories, trauma, logic and creativity; all while using your body.
At the end of the summer, we held an art show to display what our community members created!
