Art Therapy at Harbour Therapy Clinic, Coffs Harbour.
What is Art Therapy?
Art therapy is a way of asking questions and shining light on the darkened places of our psyche. It is a gentle way of being with our troubles and searching for answers. Making art in therapy can show us the way to our inherent courage and rekindle embers of inner love and sparkles of joy.
To benefit from art therapy all one needs is the desire to seek greater emotional health and the willingness to face the challenges this calls us to. The process involves expression - using art media - and talking in response to this expression. Art making with awareness connects us with a language other than words. It helps us speak about things that we can't find words for. Simultaneously it helps us quieten the mind which seeks to explain everything with words.

Mindful Drawing at Harbour Therapy Clinic
Mindful drawing is held in a safe non-judgemental space where art therapist Marg Coutts is the gentle guide for drawing with awareness. The light of our awareness illuminates the perfection of each moment via the tip of a pencil; the blunt edge of a crayon; a colour loaded brush; a blank piece of paper resonating with possibility; meandering through the light and shadows in the magnificence of the here and now. Seek the truth of your impulses & witness your authenticity unfold authentically onto the page. For bookings contact Harbour Therapy Clinic, or fill in the form below:
