Children's Art Wellness
Creating a fun, positive experience
Children can find it hard to explore their feelings and emotions through traditional therapeutic settings. Art can be a great alternative and beneficial way to help children explore challenges or reinforce positive routine. Techniques for children are different than for adults as we create a healthy reassuring environment to promote wellness and a calming, positive set of skills for the children to take forward into their daily lives. Our sessions are tailored to your child's age, needs and goals.
Individual Sessions vs Kid's Group Art classes
Our individual children's therapeutic art sessions provide a safe, nurturing space for children to explore feelings through art and is how we approach children who need to explore challenging or difficult topics. Children have the ability to quickly heal and express themselves through art to get out their emotions is a fantastic option and form of healing. Prior to your child's session, we will send you a questionnaire to better understand your child, your child's emotions and their goals for what we would like to accomplish out of the sessions. Improving your child's wellness generally can involve several sessions and depending on the situation, children respond well to incorporating recurring sessions into their weekly schedule.
For children who are not in need of that support, we offer children's art classes to promote wellness and explore their inner creativity with friends. The group art classes are open to children four years old and up with a focus on learning about artists, art styles, artistic techniques and just having a good time. Art is shared in a supportive, positive, non-judgemental environment to build confidence.
Wellness through art
Helping children's emotional development through art wellness, online
ARTiculate specializes in providing Online, non-clinical Art Therapy and Wellness for children that helps them make sense of difficult challenges in their lives and to gain a positive frame of reference through the power of art. Online or virtual therapeutic art and art wellness has been born from the challenges of the pandemic, but has given us a great opportunity to reach more children who may have not had the time or opportunity to engage in artistic self-exploration. Our online sessions are planned in advance to ready you for the session and structured for a positive, uplifting approach to promote overall wellness. Do to our focus on wellness and the happiness of your child as opposed to clinical diagnosis and treatment, we can tailor the sessions to include more exploration of art, art styles and media types to keep your child engaged and smiling.
​
Our online children's art wellness is limited to a private session with your child and you. At the end of each session, we will propose and select the media/exercise for the next session so your child is ready to go. To make things even easier, we offer a recurring session plan package that includes all of the art supplies you'll need for each session which will be mailed to you to arrive prior to the next session. This will include all kinds of different media such as pastels, clay, acrylic or watercolor paints, pencil and paper and more.
Please browse our session at our Book a Session to learn more about each session and get in touch if you have any questions.
