Art Therapy

Our children and young people’s Art Therapy service provides a safe, friendly space for you to think about your feelings.

All children and young people are different, some of you may experience life as an adventure and some of you may find you have difficult feelings that you are struggling to talk about.

Your Art Therapist will let you choose the art and craft things or toys that you think you would like to use to help you to open up a whole new world of communication that comes naturally and can be enjoyable.

What’s on Offer?

• 1:1 art and play therapy sessions
• An opportunity to make sense of your experiences,
• No questioning or pushing to talk about anything you don’t want to.

Who is the service offered to?

Children and young people aged from 4 to 17 years old who have experienced domestic abuse and whose mothers are receiving support from North Derbyshire Women’s Aid.
