What makes expressive arts therapy & somatic therapy especially effective for younger ages?
Non-verbal communication
It can be difficult for children to express their thoughts verbally. Engaging in expressive arts therapy allows them to express themselves in ways that may feel more natural and comfortable.

Emotional Regulation
Expressive arts therapy provides a safe space for children to better understand the experience of big emotions and helps them develop coping mechanisms and emotional resilience.
